Thank you so much for understand our situation. Everyone please help us out! As of right now, no one will listen to us. I am only a student so I have very little influence, but I know there are very respectable people on this sight that could help us.

Unfortunately contacting Matthew Gillespie was pointless. He was willing to work with us but his boss, Bernard Childress, was unwilling to cooperate. We have worked way too hard for Mr. Childress to deny us the chance to compete. For six of us, this is the last time we will ever bowl, and that opportunity has been inconsiderately taken from us.

The Division II bowling tournament has been rescheduled to Saturday February 13th. During this time, every girl at GPS is required to participate in a winter activity. The GPS bowling seniors (there are six on the team), along with the Coach Gordon, will all be in Disney World. The tickets are non-refundable and we don't have that kind of money to waste ($400). Our athletic head and bowling coach have worked all weekend to reschedule the tournament date but Bernard Childress will not allow it. That is crazy and completely inconsiderate. We have been working for several years to get to our final state tournament, and we have been robbed of that opportunity. If this had been any other sport, the TSSAA would have found some way to help us. If you have any ideas about what we can do please let us know. We have worked too hard to be ignored.
