PBA Junior National Championships 

Don’t forget all of us Bellamaniacs when you’re number one on the tour. 😢

39:45 I'm on the show #1 seed! Bella's So Excited as she should be! Best of Luck Bella!!

Cool tech bowling Bella

I recall Bella L.C. recently being runner up in one of these tournaments and massively impressing me with her ferocious determination and concentration over something like nine games, and only once falling below 200! She just blew me away at 13 years of age, particularly after watching her in minor comps. and then witnessing very little concentration / consistent pre-shot routine. I don't recall those games in detail but several things stuck in my mind: (a) Notwithstanding her slight frame she had an unusually physical delivery which would tax anyone. She was clearly tired towards the end but brilliantly disciplined both her body and mind and held everything together. Although such an event is not as draining as say an ultra running event it does take a serious toll and so it's important during comp. to sip on a non-caffeinated energy drink and, if one's stomach can take it, nibble on something - maybe a banana or energy bar? (Even if one has 'boosted' with carbs. just before competing). The concentration needed in comp. alone will seriously deplete one's energy level. (b) When she correctly locks into an oil pattern she can string together an impressive run of strikes. BUT she is weak on converting spares, particlarly around the 7 pin. This arises due to several issues (i) Lack of concentration and pre-shot routine (ii) Being in a hurry, and (iii) An inability to be able to throw a truly straight ball, except on rare occasions. There is usually at least a ball 2 board r-l drift. Historically it was possibly not routinely the case but nowadays most top pros. have the capacity to completely take out all oil patterns by rolling a perfectly straight ball. Bella must learn and hopefully master this skill. Only then will she achieve her massive potential. I don't follow many youngsters' progress due to their errors but Bella is such an exciting prospect - both bowling and gurning.

The third shot was awesome.

Congrats on getting the top seed for the tv show Bella. Good luck and enjoy the experience. I will be waiting next Saturday when the show is on.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!! 💪💪💪💪🎳🎳🎳🎳

Man, those split pick ups!! Wuuuut??🤯😱

Hi Bella, When I was in high school I was the captain of my bowling team and one of the top 10 bowlers on NYC. You already are great but take it from another bowler-don' t take those one pin spares for granted. When you miss them you lose a lot of wood. Your great because you put strikes together but spares can win games. If I was on the PWBA I would be very worried knowing you will be there soon. Keep up the good bowling.

Bella, you’re absolutely a powerhouse already. I hope you keep this up all the way through to the Hall of Fame. I’m 26 and I want to be like you when I grow up. Congrats on the opportunity, you did great!!

Awesome job Bella! People don't realize how exhausting bowling comp can be. Really start feeling the burn after so many games. Great endurance and perseverance. Also just want to say great job to the camera man and editing crew for the vid. Great coverage and nice lofi beats.

It was nice seeing a friendly face in the crowd at the PBA TOC!

This girl is not only top of her age group, but she's most likely top of the professional women as well. Ridiculously talented and such a joy to watch.

It’s cool seeing my friends and other people I know in your videos

This is my home center. The lanes (new HPL) were installed in July '22 before that they were over 30 years old. My PSO was there as well (in the bowlersmart shop)

Bella much love from west texas go get em girl

Well done!

Such a solid game, keep looking for that best ball reaction out there. From a couple of the other girls, looks like a little wider gave a bit more margin for error, but obviously amazing game, keep it up.

So proud of you. Keep up the good work. And remember have fun.👍😄🤞

Grande!!!

Bella Love Castillo, That was an awesome Vlog Video from the Pba Junior National Championship. Also, You bowled amazingly well in the Match Play in the Pba Junior National Championship. Also, I am looking forward to watch the Pba Junior National Championships that is airing next Saturday on F.S.1. Also, Happy St. Patrick's Day.❤🍀

Wow, the whole family getting national exposure on TV last night, great seats !

Princess of the lanes strikes again and again !

The female Jason Belmonte. Do your thang Bella.

Hello Ms. Superstar!

My home center brookgate Lanes home of the 10 pin...

700 exactly. Pretty cool.

Congratulations. No 1 is a good place to be. Now go get em.....

Lets go JACOB. Mississippi Represent!!!

Bella doin what she does best throwing purple up 15

When is TV? What station is broadcasting it?

Bella do you still post on twitch? You almost have 200 followers on twitch.

Where is this bowling alley

Nice job kiddo! Now just don't lose focus on your spares and it's all yours. Go get em'!

What is that shined blue ball you're throwing as your strike ball right up the middle?

Great job! Btw I’m a guy and I’m jealous that a young teenage girl throws the ball faster than I do 😂 How are you throwing 18mphs??? I’m a short guy 5’4 140lbs and I throw about 15mph with a 14lb ball. You must be using a much lighter ball?

My great uncle’s last name is Castillo.

Her spare shooting is sub par compared to the likes of her competitors

Was that Justin Bohn taking video and pictures?

You were flushing it more times than a toilet factory!

Never use your right hand to eat with while you’re bowling. Oil or grease may effect your ability to handle the ball.

Looks like a long pattern 44 feet

Bella,if youd just slow your roll on your single pin spares,take your time.Bowling at the pro level takes patience.Remember,its not a sprint its a marathon and spares win tournaments. Your ability to duplicate your release on your strike ball,is incredible.Your incredible.These girls although very good are not even in your league,pun intended. No excuse to miss single pin cross lane spares.Slow it down a tad. You will be in the Hall some day mark my words.Your parents have done an amazing job,too.!!! Can you say Name in Likeness?? Endorsment deals?? Their already infiltrating NCAA sports. Your 13, someone should lock you in BLC. Just dont get burned out or pregnant and your future will be unparrelled in womans bowling and perhaps womans sports. Mom and Dad get your daughter a sports agent if you havent already.

Bella, what is the story? Is everyone required not to say anything about the result of the final until Fox airs the game?

4 day streak of Bella hearting my comment??
