I will be moving hopefully soon to the south end of TV, and I love bowling. Wish there was a bowling facility in TV in Brownwood or southern area. Not a fan of the bowling facility in Leesburg. Good luck with your league, sounds fun!

It’s a popular sport. Always thought a new bowling complex would be built somewhere south of 466A in or near Brownwood. After research, the Developer must not consider it as a profitable venture.

Expensive to build and maintain. Up north they were often torn down for real estate value. Not worth refurbishing lanes

I'm also moving soon to the south end of TV. I love bowling and currently on a league. How far is it to bowl if you live on n the south end.

Our 4th is recovering from hip replacement surgery. Is it a bad bowlers league? A nine pin no tap?
We may be interested in 3 months.

More profitable than the wood shop at Brownwood.

The only TV bowling lanes are both located at Spanish Springs, so look at your map, but probably a 35 to 45 minute DRIVE, longer if going by cart. We are just south of 466A and we allow 25 minutes by car to get to bowling. Leesburg lanes are probably a lot closer.

The same company Bowlero now owns both of the villages lanes as well as Leesburg and the Ocala lanes. I agree I do not like Leesburg, and I am getting annoyed with the villages lanes since the change in ownership. I was bowling in up to 6 leagues about 2 years ago, cut back to 4 leagues, and if conditions do not improve will probably cut back further to 2 leagues.

Now that I bought in Richmond - I’m not optimistic about joining a league as much as I love bowling - Spanish Springs is just a tad too far to drive for a weekly league, and I don’t like the lanes in Leesburg at all. Until the developer builds a bowling facility on the south end of TV, I think I will just take up bocce ball instead. And in the summer time, when it’s hot, I will occasionally drive up to Spanish Springs and bowl during the non-league “open” times by myself.

Curious for those who do not like Leesburg’s bowling center, what they dislike and what is annoying so far about the new ownership of Spanish Springs & Fiesta Lanes
