GREENDALE, Wis. - The Women's International Bowling Congress has teamed-up with AMF Bowling to create a new online promotion through AMF.com and WIBCtournament.com.
The WIBC/AMF "Have a Ball" promotion provides WIBC members with extra incentive to enter the 2002 WIBC Championship Tournament and promotes the launch of the new AMF high performance ball, the Fusion Hook Monster.
