Established in 1957 the Association’s mission is to promote volunteer firefighter
camaraderie through the sport of bowling by sponsoring an annual tournament for
them to participate in.
Moving into the twenty-first century the mission statement has been redefined to
include bowling enthusiasts in other organizations thereby creating a mix of
participants who have a common thread, the love of the sport.
As the sport of bowling grows the association will take a careful look and if needed will
adjust its mission statement accordingly so all those who love the sport will participate
in the annual tournament and enjoy the camaraderie that the volunteer firefighters
have enjoyed for many years.

Message from the President:
Welcome to all our returning bowlers and to those who are joining us for the first time a
very special welcome to the 58th Annual New York State Volunteer Firefighters Bowling
Association Tournament. I have only had the privilege and honor to be President for a few
months but I am looking forward to working with my Directors and you the bowlers to
continue to make our tournament one, if not, the premiere tournament of the season. In
that regards, I need all long term and new bowlers to pass the word to other bowling
enthusiasts that our tournament is one of the least expensive and has a 100% prize fund
return, most importantly, the camaraderie among participants is priceless. So if you are

Good luck and Good Bowling,
John Roberts
