Post this

Dacula, Georgia (PRWEB) January 03, 2014 -- Sports Challenge Network, LLC (“SCN”), a metro Atlanta-based technology company, has announced its participation in the 2nd Annual “Strikes For A Cause” Celebrity Bowling Tournament to be held in Atlanta on January 16, 2014. In connection with its participation in this charity event, SCN is launching the XBowling “Strikes For A Cause” Challenge. This Challenge will be available through the XBowling App to XBowlers in the United Statesfrom December 30, 2013 through January 12, 2014. Proceeds will benefit at risk youth in the life changing programs organized by Three Dimensional Life and FIFTEEN, a program of Essential 2 Life.

The winners of the Challenge will be the top 20 XBowlers with the highest cumulative handicapped score bowled during the Challenge period. There are 2 award levels for the Top 20 XBowlers. The 8 highest ranked scorers will win the opportunity to join 2 XBowling celebrity bowling teams at the Strikes for a Cause celebrity bowling tournament and the next 12 top scorers will win the opportunity to attend a celebrity Meet & Greet prior to the bowling tournament, receive a spectator pass to the tournament, and get autographed celebrity merchandise. Detailed rules of the Strikes for a Cause Challenge are available on XBowling’s Facebook page and http://www.XBowling.com. The Celebrity Tournament itself will take place on January 16, 2014 at Brunswick’s in Norcross, Georgia, from 6:30 – 9:30 pm.

"I'm excited to be partnering with SCN and XBowling for our charity bowling tournament. I believe it's a great opportunity to use cutting edge technology to broaden the reach and appeal of our event to a much larger base of charity-minded bowling fans, which in turn will allow us to raise more funds for at risk youth in America," said Chris Singleton, the president of the Chris Singleton Fund.

“We are honored to partner with the Chris Singleton Fund on the “Strikes for Cause” charity bowling tournament in our home town of Atlanta,” said Timothy J. Minard, founder and CEO of SCN. “XBowling is uniquely positioned to allow charities and celebrities to leverage our technology platform to engage more directly and in new, innovative ways with a much larger group of people through the game of bowling by allowing bowlers to “Bowl for Good” while they enjoy their XBowling experience and compete for valuable prizes”, continued Minard.

About “Strikes For A Cause”Celebrity Bowling Tournament and the Chris Singleton Fund

“Strikes For A Cause” is a celebrity bowling tournament that is sponsored and organized by the Chris Singleton Fund. The Chris Singleton Fund was established by Chris Singleton, a former Major League Baseball player and current television and radio analyst on ESPN. The initiative raises awareness and funds for Three Dimensional Life, a Christian-based residential facility designed to help 14-20 year old teens and young men who struggle with destructive behavior and addiction as well as FIFTEEN, a program carrying students through a three-year program during which they learn social responsibility, self-awareness, leadership and life skills.

About XBowling

XBowling is a social mobile application that offers bowlers an opportunity to engage in new types of gaming experiences at bowling centers around the world. Players can compete against each other in live Head to Head Challenges while bowling in the same center or different centers around the country and the world. They can also compete against games previously bowled and “posted” on the XBowling network. Players can also enter “solo” Challenges, such as XBowl Mania, Lotto Bowl, or Beat Your Average, competing to achieve a certain game or frame result. Players can win points every time they play through gameplay, skill, and social interactions that allow them to build their XBowling leaderboard status and redeem their accumulated points for great merchandise and sports gear through the app or the web. Players can also use the XBowling platform to engage with celebrities through the VIB (“Very Important Bowler”) section of the App, bowling in special Challenges for the right to participate in live celebrity events, such as celebrity bowling tournaments, or for the right to attend unique athletic and sporting events.

Over the last two years, the XBowling platform has recorded close to 1 billion balls thrown at XBowling-enabled centers. XBowling is currently available on Apple IoS and Google Android devices, via free downloads from the App Store and Google Play.

Bowling is the largest recreational sport in the world with over 130 million annual participants globally. In the US alone, 70 million people bowl at least once a year, 10 million people bowl at least once a month, and millions of people bowl 7 million games each day.

About Sports Challenge Network

Sports Challenge Network, LLC (“SCN”) was established in 2010 with the goal of increasing participation and creating new types of experiences and competition within recreational sports by harnessing the power of mobile and social technology. SCN apps offer players and fans new game experiences through personalization, challenges and contests, rewards, and social connections. SCN will be the primary destination in the app universe, and on the Web, for fans, players, and other participants who want to compete and have fun with their favorite sports in new ways.
