Wednesday Rainbow Bowling League - Twin Cities

WRBL is an Open & Diversified organization that fosters fun and friendship through bowling. Thank you for your interest in the Wednesday Rainbow Bowling League.

We are an LBGTQ+ league that is open to all bowlers (18yo and up). We currently have bowlers who average below 100 as well as some that are above 190. The majority of the bowlers are in the 115 – 135 range. The bowlers get together every Wednesday night during the Fall/Winter season to have fun, socialize, and compete in a friendly game of bowling; ultimately winning prizes at the end of the seaso

n. The end of each season the organization gets together for a banquet to hand out prizes. We are sanctioned with United States Bowling Congress (USBC) which requires a fee to paid once each bowling year which runs from August to July of the following year. Our leagues season starts the Wednesday after Labor Day and runs for 29 weeks, typically ending late March or early April, dependent upon the Holidays. We are also a member of the International Gay Bowling Organization (IGBO) which carries a once a year fee of $3 (subject to change each season). We bowl at Memory Lanes in Minneapolis with a starting time of 7:30. Teams are made up of 4 -8 bowlers, but only 4 bowl on a given night. This allows bowlers to rotate if they like so they don’t have to be there every night. Currently our weekly fees are $20 per bowler (likely to go up soon) If you don’t own bowling shoes, they can be rented at Memory for an additional fee. We have capacity for 30 teams and are currently full with a waiting list for both teams and individuals. As officers we help to place bowlers with teams, but it is the team captain themselves that make the decision if they want to use someone from the list or try to find someone through other means. A team slot only becomes available if a team does not renew for the next season. If you are interested in joining us, please DM your name, email and phone number. Indicate if you are bringing other bowler(s) with you, or if you have a full team. Teams will automatically go to the bottom of the wait list as we do go in order of date contacted. If you are an individual or 2 bowlers it is also helpful to know if you are interested in bowling Full Time (majority of the weeks), Part Time ( looking to get into a rotation) or if you are looking to substitute on occasion. Thanks again for your interest in WRBL! DM this page or email [email protected].

All - To care for the environment by printing less paper, I won't be printing all bowlers stats for the banquet packages going forward. Our league's data syncs up to League Secretary and you can review information there. Our league ID is 122886. If you would like your info in the format that has been provided in the past, I can create pdf and send via email.
This is also the place to sign up to receive weekly emails when the standings are posted as well as receiving lane assignment notification Wednesday afternoons.

I sadly want to share that we have lost another friend from our league. Unfortunately Eric “Snapcat” Stevens has passed away. Please keep all of Snapcat’s family in your thoughts and prayers, including his partner Deron, who also bowls in the league. Please also respect Deron’s privacy as he works through this difficult time.

It is with deep sadness that I share our good friend and teammate, Todd Kruger, has passed away. He was a fixture in bowling and softball leagues for many years. He was dedicated to caring for others, often putting them before himself. He will be greatly missed by so many.

I have no further details at this time.
