August 10, 2010 – The Professional Bowlers Association, the professional league for the sport of ten-pin bowling, and NeuLion, Inc. (TSX:NLN), an end-to-end IPTV service provider of live and on-demand international, sports and variety programming delivered via broadband, today announced a new online video streaming service available for America’s number one recreational sport – bowling.
The new digital service will continue under the Xtra Frame brand, but will take advantage of NeuLion’s industry leadership in sports video delivery. Bowling fans will enjoy a new online experience that offers enhancements in video quality plus interactive features that give fans a chance to follow the sport more closely through pause and rewind of live streams, highlights, chat and exclusive content 24/7.
PBA’s effort to enhance its digital business stemmed from the need to unlock the social potential of the sport for the casual and avid fan. The official website, PBA.com, is the launch pad for all interaction to the bowling community around the world.
“Partnering with an established industry leader such as NeuLion is another step in the rapid, continual growth in quality, scope and viewership of Xtra Frame. Our fans are going to love the added features and benefits and will feel closer to PBA action than ever before,” said Tom Clark, COO and Deputy Commissioner of PBA. “We selected NeuLion since it gave us a single solution provider and their experience in the sports marketplace was important to us.”
As bowling is also a leading recreational sport in Japan, Xtra Frame will be available for fans in Japan. NeuLion will implement its multi-language support services to offer landing pages, sign up promotions and order flow in Japanese.
The NeuLion Platform also provides PBA with new opportunities to expand digital revenue with a video syndication player that will be offered to website providers targeting bowling fans. In addition to premium and subscription services, the Platform offers PBA new ways to attract and activate fans.
“The NeuLion Platform will offer the PBA additional features in the future for e-commerce, auction and mobile video. As we partner with PBA and build their digital business, bowling fans will find more and more available to them from the partnership,” said Chris Wagner, Executive Vice President of NeuLion.
The new PBA video service launches this September, in time for the PBA World Series of Bowling which will stream live on the new service starting October 24, 2010.

Do you know what the most important aspect of competitive bowling is? Is it your approach, the bowling ball, the lanes or the line of attack to the pocket?
The Answer: None of the Above. The most important part of competitive bowling is ABOVE YOUR NECK!
1. Respect Yourself
2. Positive Self Talk- What your inner voice says has a great effect on your mental attitude.
3. Affirmations- Team USA Personal Affirmations “No lane beats me. I can always figure them out.” “I have the best mental equipment for all lane conditions.”
4. Imagery- Mental imagery can be so vivid that thousands of minute details are visualized at once. Think about lining up in the stance and making a shot. Although it takes thousands of words to describe this process, it can be visualized in one vivid mental image.
5. Concentration- The ability to maintain attention and to re-f0cus if attention is lost is fundamentally important to performing well.
6. Pre-Shot Routine- No matter what the situation is, you must concentrate on not breaking your routine. Each shot must have the same value with no one shot being any more important than the other. A good pre-shot routine will give you this.

EL PASO, Texas – Kelly Kulick proved she could beat the men earlier this year and Wednesday she came out on top against a field of the top women bowlers in the world, earning her second United States Bowling Congress Queens title.
The Union, N.J., native climbed the five-player stepladder, winning four consecutive matches, and defeating top seed Tennelle Milligan of Arlington, Texas, 232-188, to win the Queens at the El Paso Convention and Performing Arts Center.
Kulick, the No. 4 seed, made sports history when she became the first woman to win a title on the Professional Bowlers Association Tour in January by defeating Chris Barnes, 265-195, to win the PBA Tournament of Champions. On Wednesday, she added her third career major women’s title to her resume.
“I feel like I’ve been carrying a four-leaf clover in my pocket and have had luck on my side lately,” said Kulick, who earned $25,000 for the victory. “This has been the ride of a lifetime. The only way it gets better at this point is if in three months I’m driving a Lexus and have a million dollar endorsement deal.”
The 2007 Queens champion and 2003 U.S. Women’s Open champion, Kulick got ahead early in the match and never looked back against Milligan. Kulick threw four consecutive strikes from the fourth to the seventh frame, while Milligan failed to double in that stretch.
“It’s heartbreaking for Tennelle because I know what a stellar performance she had all week,” said Kulick, who was the runner-up to Liz Johnson at the 2009 Queens. “I just had a good performance all week long as well and it was just about getting to the show and seeing what would happen.”
Milligan, the 2005 Queens and 2000 U.S. Women’s Open champion, said she was pleased with her performance this week despite losing in the title match.
“I was excited, nervous, pumped up and ready to go out there and put on a good show,” said Milligan, who earned $15,000 for second. “I just went out there and overthrew the ball. Once I calmed down, everything fell into place, but when you are bowling a game on TV, it’s the fastest game of your life.”
In reaching the title match, Kulick took out USBC Hall of Famer Anne Marie Duggan of Edmond, Okla., 226-176. With the third place finish and a $10,000 prize, Duggan became the fifth woman to earn $1 million in her career, joining Wendy Macpherson, Tish Johnson, Aleta Sill and Leanne Barrette-Hulsenberg.
Kulick escaped with a victory over Missy Bellinder of Fullerton, Calif., 220-212, in the match before when Bellinder left a pocket 7-10 split in the final frame. Kulick threw the last five strikes to force Bellinder to mark in the 10th frame, which she failed to do.
“I made an adjustment on that lane after I had the messenger take out the 10 pin on the previous shot,” Bellinder said. “I moved a little bit right and squared up. Off my hand I thought I threw it perfect, and that’s all you can really do.”
To open the championship round, Kulick defeated Michelle Feldman of Auburn, N.Y., 186-170. After Kulick left the 4-7-10 split in the ninth frame and spared in the 10th, Feldman had a chance to throw two strikes and a five count to win, but left a 10 pin on her first shot.
The Queens, which will be rebroadcast on ESPN2 on Sunday, May 2 at 3:30 p.m. EDT, featured a field of 201 of the top female bowlers in the world competing for a total prize fund of $166,750. Storm Bowling Products is the official ball company of the 2010 USBC Queens.
