As I am sure most of you have seen, we have recently announced that we have become product registered on the PWBA tour for the upcoming season. This is a huge step for us as a company and as a brand.
Given this major development, we’d like to also announce the signing of our first PWBA National staffer: Heather D’Errico. D’Errico is an exceptional talent on the lanes and a terrific ambassador for our brand off the lanes.
D’Errico has a plethora of accomplishments from her time as a youth bowler, collegiate player, and to today as a PWBA bowler:
– 2015 Rochester Queens runner up
– 2010 USBC Alberta E Crowe Star of Tomorrow recipient
– 2010 USBC Chris Stoehr Sportsmanship Award recipient
– 2008 PBA Billy Welu Scholarschip recipient
– 2011 Collegiate Bowler of the Year honorable mention
– 2010-2011 NAIA first team All-American
– 2010/2011 collegiate second-team All-American
– 2010 Empire State Games Women’s Singles gold medal
– 2010 Empire State Games Trios gold medal
– 2009 BWAA Chuck Pezzano Award recipient
– 2011 Nittany Lion Collegiate Classic winner
2011 ABT of Western N.Y. second place
2009 Fabulous Ladies Inc. Women’s Tournament winner
While her past bowling accomplishments are impressive in their own right, what she has done to help the sport of bowling and bowlers alike is even more impressive.
For those of you that don’t know, Heather is a strength and conditioning coach specializing in bowling-related fitness. She is the founder of BowlFit, which is — in her own words — a functional strength training program designed to help the bowler be better prepared and fit to compete at their best. In many ways, D’Errico has been at the forefront of the new fitness movement that has been evident as of late.
If you look at the tour, both the PWBA and PBA, fitness is becoming a larger and larger part of the bowlers’ lives. Fitness can elongate careers and prevent injury. And Heather has been spearheading this movement. And we are excited for her to spearhead our CoolWick movement on the PWBA tour.
