The tournament for this year has officially been cancelled. Due to the Governor's proclamation all league and tournament bowling has been stopped until December 10. Rather than try to get all the centers to reschedule and then try to figure out if our participants can or cannot move to another time, we realized it would probably be easier to just cancel. Refunds should be issued and sent out by the end of the week. Whatever you sent in for Local, district and 1 time fees will be returned to the person who sent it in to the state office.
Given the fact there is no league bowling until after December 10th, the Pepsi paperwork that has a postmark deadline of December 4 will now be extended until December 18 to hopefully give more time to collect the money and send it in! Should you have any questions, please feel free to contact.
