Two weeks ago, Corner Pin Standings Director Tyson Jones shared a final thank you to everyone who played a part in Struddys ANC26. Now, as our ANC content and our time hosting the event officially comes to a close, we wanted to take a moment to shine the spotlight back on Tyson.
For the past three years, Tyson has poured an incredible amount of himself into ANC. From the Gold Coast in 2024 to two huge years on the Sunshine Coast, he played a huge part in shaping the direction of the event and what ANC became during that time.
What people saw across those three years was the finished product. What they didn’t always see were the endless hours behind the scenes, the planning, the problem solving, the late nights, the pressure, the constant phone calls and the hundreds of little things that had to come together to make something of this scale happen.
ANC continued to grow into something really special for the bowling community. It created opportunities, brought people together, gave our sport something different and created memories that so many of us will carry for a very long time. Tyson believed in what the event could be, and he kept pushing to make every edition he was part of bigger and better than the one before.
Of course, nobody takes on something like this completely alone. A very special thank you also goes to the close circle of family and friends around Tyson who backed him through it all, helped him through the hard days and played their own part in turning his ideas into reality. You know exactly who you are.
On behalf of everyone at Corner Pin Standings, Tyson, thank you. Thank you for the sacrifices, the passion, the belief and everything you gave to ANC over the past three years. We are incredibly proud of what was developed throughout this chapter, and grateful that we got to be part of the journey with you.
If you’ve got a favourite memory from the past three years of ANC, or Tyson has helped create an opportunity or moment that meant something to you, leave him a message below.
Let’s give him the send off this chapter deserves ❤️
