Tenpin Bowling Australia (TBA) has announced a strategic partnership with Chemist Warehouse as the Major Partner for TBA’s High Performance Programs. As the TBA National Teams prepare to leave their mark on international platforms, they will now be recognised as the “Tenpin Bowling Australia National Team presented by Chemist Warehouse.” The athletes will proudly sport uniforms adorned with the renowned Chemist Warehouse logo. This alliance aims to offer crucial support to athletes, alleviating expenses ranging from uniforms to financial subsidies for equipment transit – expenses often borne by athletes themselves due to the sport’s non-Olympic status.

TBA CEO Rohan O’Neill expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership, stating, “The partnership with retail giant Chemist Warehouse is a monumental leap for TBA. It’s more than a sponsorship; it’s a shared commitment to nurture and support our athletes across all demographics.”

O’Neill added, “We are already delivering on several positive outcomes through our high-performance area following the High-Performance review in 2022. This announcement today will further advance our High-Performance programs to further our athletes as they look to dominate on the world stage in 2024.”

“It further demonstrates that tenpin bowling is a sport going places, and we are ecstatic to welcome Chemist Warehouse as the major sponsor of our national teams.”

Mario Tascone, Chemist Warehouse Director, highlighted the synergy between the two organisations, stating, : “Chemist Warehouse has always strived to bring health and happiness to Australians, and we see a reflection of our values in the community spirit of TBA. We’re honoured to support these athletes, who showcase true dedication and passion for their sport. As the House of Wellness, we are committed to fostering healthy living and promoting sports as a pathway to wellness, our partnership with TBA is an extension of this.”

This partnership signifies the growing recognition of tenpin bowling as a sport that not only entertains but also fosters a community of devoted athletes aspiring to represent Australia on the global stage. On average, over two million Australians participate in tenpin bowling around the country every year. With the support of Chemist Warehouse, TBA is poised to implement more robust programs and support systems for its National Training Squads, encompassing all age categories – Junior, Youth, Adult, Senior, and Inclusion.
