Coming September 22nd & 23rd 2018 to East Providence Lanes.
This is a two day event, and the champion will receive a paid stipend* to compete in the USBC Masters for one of the next three seasons!
Entry fee is $100 per bowler. There will be sweepers held during the summer to win a spot.
Day 1:
Squad 1: Bowlers will bowl 6 games of qualifying on Saturday morning on a Sport Compliant "Short" pattern
Squad 2: Bowlers will continue their qualifying by bowling another 6 games Saturday night on a Sport Compliant "Long" pattern.
Day Two:
Format will follow the National Event rules with double elimination.
The top 16 bowlers will compete in single game bracket matches, double elimination style. Bowlers will compete until we have two left in the winners bracket, where they will bowl for the 1 and 2 seed.
In the losers bracket, they will compete until we have four bowlers left, where they will compete all on one pair of lanes with a two game total pin fall match. The lowest two game total will be eliminated, and the remaining bowlers will be seeded 3, 4 and 5 seeds.
The final five will bowl a stepladder format, 5 vs 4, winner bowls 3, and so on until we are down to the final two. They will compete for the Title of Masters Champion. In the event the 1 seed loses in this match, they will bowl an additional game, as that would be the first loss for the #1 seed in a double elimination format.
*RI USBC BA will reimburse up to $500 for the entry to the USBC Masters Event for one of the next three years.
