RULES AND REGULATIONS OF THE LEAGUE 
(As sanctioned by ABC)

FEES 

The league will be a guaranteed league and the amount to be paid by each bowler each night is $8.00 of which $7.65 will cover the cost of bowling, with the balance to be placed in the league fund for the prizes. Guaranteed league means the bowler still needs to pay the amount even if he/she is absent unless he/she gets a substitute. The captain of each team will collect team members moneys and give the money envelope to the treasure by the END OF THE 5TH FRAME OF THE FIRST GAME. A bowler is not allowed to be more than one week behind in their fees.The second week, or when the bowler returns to bowling, all fees must be paid in full. Bowlersare required to pay the last two weeks bowling fees by the 6th week of bowling. If a bowler leaves the league before the end of the league this money is not refundable unless an immediate replacement is found. This money may not be used to cover delinquent bowling fees. 

POINTS 

The league will use a 4 point system. i.e... one per game and one for total pins. 

SUBSTITUTES 

The secretary must be notified of all subs. All subs must be sanctioned before bowling ortheir scores will not count. Subs will establish their average the first night they bowl. If a sub bowls less than three games the first night they bowl their scores will not count and the team will use the absent bowlers score. Subs do not have to be the same gender as the absent bowler. 

TARDY BOWLERS 

A bowler who arrives late may enter the game if he or she arrives before the completion of the 4th frame. Frames missed may be made up. A frame is considered completed when the bowler in the anchor position of each team has completed the frame. 

SCORING 

Scoring is to begin promptly when the league is put in league play. 

ABSENTEE/VACANCY SCORES 

The absentee score will be 100% of the absentee bowlers running average. If a vacancy exists on a team a vacancy score of 120 will be used to calculate handicap and 120 score across the board. 

AVERAGE & HANDICAP 

All averages will be computed the first night of bowling at the end of the third game. All games bowled the first night will count toward wins and losses. Handicap will be figured at 80% of the difference between the two teams with NO PIN LIMIT.
