The reigning National Bolivian Champion, 18-year-old Sebastian Nemtala (pictured left) threw his first 300 game on March 15th, bowling the 16th game of a three-day 20-game marathon tournament at Boliche del Rey center in Belo Horizonte, Brazil.

In an era where perfect games have lost most of its luster, what makes this 300 newsworthy?

Young Sebastian is the flag bearer of the "Bolivia's Two-Handed Project", a full team training for less than a year using a two-handed approach under the guidance of Paraguayan born coach Bené Villa.

Villa (right) was ecstatic about the response to the article about the Bolivian national team on bowlingdigital.com. He was contacted by The Wall Street Journal, ESPN and CNN and thanked Bowlingdigital for helping make his work known.

In this short period Nemtala, starting from zero, not only became the youngest national champion of Bolivia, but also earned two bronze medals in the 2008 South American Championships in Buenos Aires, Argentina. Nemtala has competed with over par averages in regional and international tournaments in Argentina (Torneo Internacional For Fan 2009) and in Brazil (Taca Paulista in Sao Paulo and the above named XXIII Taca BH de Boliche in Belo Horizonte).

All the time Nemtala is focusing and envisioning a great performance in the Bolivarian Games to be held in Sucre, Bolivia in September.

Recently he added another goal, the participation in the QubicaAMF Bowling World Cup, which he will challenge with two hands, on the 52 lanes of the Melaka International Bowling Center in Melaka, Malaysia, Nov. 14-21, 2009.
