2016 RI Masters Event
June 11th & 12th, 2016 at Cranston Bowl.

     This is a two day event for the elite bowlers in the state.  The Overall Winner will be crowned the Masters Champion and will receive a paid stipend for the USBC Masters or US Open for 2016-17!
     Entry fee is $125 per bowler.  
     Bowlers will bowl 6 games of qualifying on Saturday morning on a Sport Compliant "Short" pattern, then another 6 games of qualifying Saturday night on a Sport Compliant "Long" pattern.  
     Day Two is going to be a little different this year.  Instead of a round robin, followed by a position round, we will instead cut to match play, with seeding based on total pin fall from day one.  These matches will be two game total pin fall, double elimination, with the winner moving on, and the loser moving to the losers bracket.
  • Entry Fee is $125 per bowler
  • Payment is due by June 1st.
  • Entries will be on a first come, first entered basis.

You are eligible to bowl in this event regardless of when you last bowled in RI.
