    Event Details and Rules

    USBC Tornament rules with scratch scores

    Entering Average: Games tournament average will be used first.  It will be determined by the last 3 years of participation regardless of number of games.  (USBC National averages are based on last 27 games (3 years) of participation in that tournament.)  If a bowler does not have a FRG average then the prior years USBC average will be used as confirmed on www.bowl.com by tournament staff.   If neither applies, the first year male bowler will bowl in the AA Division, and the first year female bowler in the open division.

    Any bowler found in non-compliance with the rules will be disqualified from the games and forfeit any medals won.  They are also subject to review for future participation under the Rules of Participation outlined by the First Responder Games.

    Any rules not covered herein, will be governed by the USBC Rules.

    If there are ” no-shows” or injuries on a bowling team, that cannot be replaced, the remaining participating players may bowl for the allevents category only.  No blind scores are allowed in any bowling events.
