Ebonite

Aug 14, 2012

Kelly Kulick, the only female bowler to earn exemption on the PBA Tour, has signed on for another year as a part of the Ebonite team.

With three PBA titles and six career 300 games, Kulick also holds eight PWBA and PBA Women’s Series titles.
Her sixth place spot in the 2006 PBA Tour Trials earned her first Tour exemption, but her 2010 Tournament of Champions win cemented her role on the PBA Tour.

Kulick has truly been a pioneer for women in the sport of bowling, as the only woman in bowling history to win four consecutive Major titles, PBA Women’s World Championship, PBA Tournament of Champions, USBC Queens and Women’s US Open. She was honored in 2010 to attend a White House function hosted by President and Mrs. Obama, to celebrate pioneering achievements by women. Her achievements have also earned her a place in Smithsonian affiliate The Women’s Museum™, in Dallas, Tex, alongside greats such as Billie Jean King, Amelia Earhart, and Babe Didrikson.

The majority of Kulick’s titles and accomplishments have occurred with Ebonite equipment in her hands, going back to her collegiate success with the national championship-winning team at Morehead University, where Kulick graduated with a degree in physical and health education.

“I am ecstatic that Ebonite continues to support my life’s mission of bowling and winning,” said Kulick. “I DO Bowl to Win, just like the tagline says. Without a doubt, they provide me with the best products to ensure my success.”

Kulick’s success this summer at the 2012 US Women’s Open was a fine example of the relationship Kulick has with the Ebonite family, as she worked closely with Ebonite’s Jason Couch in the televised finals.

“Ebonite is more than just a bowling company for me… they are my family,” explained Kulick. “It’s good to be home!”

The folks at Ebonite couldn’t agree more.

“Kelly has been a welcome part of our brand for years,” said Ed Gallagher, Ebonite Brand Manager. “We’ve sweat together, we’ve cried together, and we’ve cheered together. We’re proud to say that the best woman bowler in the world is a part of our family.”
