Ames Area Bowling
Association 9-Pin Tournament Rules
- Bowlers
must have a
current ABC sanction card in order to be eligible to participate
in the tournaments. Bowlers may purchase the
card for $12.00.
Non-Ames Association Members
have to
pay $4.00 for Association dues.
- Handicap
is based on 80%
of the difference between a bowler's average and 200.
- Average is determined by
the highest 2003-04 average bowled in an Ames
area bowling center (Carousel Lanes in Story City; Sports Bowl in
Nevada; 20th Century Bowl inAmes). If no 03-04 average, the
highest current average (at least 21 games) in an Ames area
bowling center will be used (bowlers are responsible for providing
average verification).
All others must bowl scratch.
- Entry fee is $ 13 per
person for singles and $26 for a doubles team. The entry fee must be
paid before bowlers are allowed to compete. Money will be distributed
as follows:
- $6.50
lineage fee
- $5.50
prize fund
- $1.00
administrative fee
(goes to the Ames Area Bowling Association)
- Bowlers
may participate
in an optional "300" pot for $1 per person, per event.
There will
be
a separate "300"
pot for singles and for doubles. In case of multiple "300"s,
the pot will be split accordingly. In the event that a participant
bowls more than one "300" in an event, he/she
will only get credit for one "300".
If nobody bowls a "300",
the
money in the pot will be carried over to the next tournament.
- Bowlers
may participate more than once in both the singles and doubles events,
however, they may only cash once (the highest score will be used). A
bowler may cash more than once in doubles if they have a different
partner.
- All-events
prizes will be offered in both singles and doubles. In order to
qualify, participants must compete in all three tournaments. First attempt scores
will be used in determining all event totals.
- Prize
money will be 100%
returned on a 1-5 ratio.
- Participants
may bowl in an event anytime during the time listed. Bowlers must pay
for and begin (throw the first ball in competition) an event before the
ending time listed. The 9-pin tournament committee reserves the
right to disallow a participant from bowling if it is determined that
there is a reasonable likelihood that the event will extend beyond the
time of the lane availability.
- The
9-pin tournament
committee will be responsible for settling any rules disputes.
