Mike Carney Memorial Tenpin Tour - Q TOUR NORTH

🚨 3 WEEKS TO GO! 🚨

The Mike Carney Memorial Q Tour North heads to Cairns for what has become one of the toughest weekends on the calendar... the **Dual Pattern Challenge**.

With just **ONE spot remaining**, it says plenty about what Q Tour North has become.

No whinging.
No trolling.
No keyboard experts.
No "poor me."

Just bowlers who want to test themselves, compete against the best, improve their game, and spend a weekend with good people who share the same passion.

That's what Q Tour North has always been about.

The best part? Every event continues to fill with bowlers who understand that quality tournaments don't happen by accident. They happen because people support them, trust the process, and simply get on with the job.

This year's field is stacked.

🏆 Defending Dual Pattern Champion **Blake Walsh** returns.
🔥 Four members of the Australian High Performance Squad are already locked in.
💥 Add in the depth of talent from North Queensland and beyond, and this is shaping up to be another absolute cracker.

So... who have you got?

Will Blake go back-to-back?
Will one of the HPS athletes take the title?
Or is there someone quietly flying under the radar ready to spoil the party?

Drop your predictions below.

**Two patterns. One champion. No excuses.**
