SWISS TRIOS TOURNAMENT RULES1. The tournament is sanctioned USBC and open to all ADULT sanctioned bowlers who are in good standing with the USBC and are currently sanctioned with USBC. Each team will consist of 3 bowlers.
2. The entry fee will be $80/bowler ($240/team); $54 lineage, $6 expenses and $180 prize fund. Expenses consist of The Bowlers Eye software, bowling pin trophies and year end awards. All leftover expense money will go towards year-end pot. If space permits, walk ins will be accepted. Payout will be 1:4 entries.
3. This event will max at 44 teams.
4. Check-in will begin at 8:45am. Practice will begin promptly at 10:00am, with tournament play starting at 10:10am. Lane assignments will be drawn at random upon check-in.
5. Handicap will be based individually at 80% of 220. Each bowler will use their highest 23/24 USBC sanctioned average from bowl.com with a minimum of 21 games. Should a bowler not have a 23/24 season average with 21 games, they can use their current league average provided it has the minimum 21 games. If neither applies, the bowler will use a 220 average for this event. Any and all bowlers are subject to being re-rated at the tournament director’s discretion.
6. Bowlers will bowl 6 games, with each game being head-to-head with an overall 10 points per game that can be earned, 2 points for each individual match, and 4 points for overall total pins per match. Teams on the LEFT lane will establish their lineup first. Each game is a position round, and teams are repositioned based on their total points after each game. All ties will be broken by cumulative pin total with handicap where applicable. In the event there is an odd number of teams, a blind team will be used. The blind team will earn points and be ranked each game according to points won. When facing the blind team, bowlers must shoot their entering average minus 10 pins (minus 30 pins for team points) or higher to win their respective points. The team with the most points earned after all 6 games are complete will be deemed the champions.
7. Optional brackets and side pots will be available. Individual brackets will be $5 each, unlimited and games 1-3, 2-4, 3-5, and 4-6. Team brackets will be $10 each, unlimited and games 1-3, 2-4, 3-5 and 4-6. High game pot will also be available for individuals ($20) and teams ($60). This will payout the top game(s) for all 6 games of the tournament. Optional singles will also be available for $20 and will pay 1 in 4 bowlers who enter. All side pots and brackets will have handicap and scratch divisions. ALL BRACKET AND SIDE POT MONEY MUST BE PICKED UP PRIOR TO LEAVING THE TOURNAMENT. We will not mail/send money that is not claimed at the end of the event.
8. If at any point during the tournament, a bowler is unable to finish, they will not be given a refund and will receive zeros for the remainder of the frames/games.
9. All bowlers entering this tournament are to follow USBC rules. All decisions made by the tournament manager are FINAL. All other USBC rules will apply.
