For each of the past three holiday seasons, Kyle Troup hosted a charitable bowling tournament to raise money for families in need. The event has grown each year with donations totaling nearly $40,000 to provide holiday gifts for children in Troup’s native North Carolina and new home of Kentucky.

“Given the opportunities and blessings that I've had in my career and my life through bowling, I wanted to be able to give back,” Troup said.

The Tony Reyes Community Service Award recognizes a current PBA member who exemplifies extraordinary community service, charitable or educational contributions over the course of a PBA season.

Reyes, who died in 2012, was an eight-time PBA Regional Tour champion, collegiate All-American and the 18th player in PBA history to bowl a 300 game on national television. Few remember the accolades when they think of Tony Reyes; instead, they remember his infectious laugh, buoyant personality and limitless generosity.
