Optional Scratch: Get all the benefits of Scratch Masters without the extra games! The Optional Scratch event uses scratch scores (without handicap) from the regular events (Singles, Doubles, and Team) to determine winners in each division.
Scratch Masters (Sunday, May 17): The Scratch Masters event uses your Scratch All-Events score (without handicap) of the regular events (the 9-game scratch total from all regular events).
Dark Horse: Randomly select your mystery doubles partner for each event (Singles, Doubles, and Team). If you both bowl well (including handicap), you might just win some money!
Raffles: We sell rainbow raffle tickets for cash and non-cash prizes. We also sell grab bags throughout the tournament, raising money for local non-profits and giving you a chance to win up to $500.
Scratch/Handicap Brackets: For each event (Singles, Doubles, and Team), we sell scratch and handicap brackets. Brackets are a single elimination system based on scores where players compete directly against each other during league or tournament play.
This is an amateur handicapped tournament with a limit of 480 participants. Cash and prizes are awarded based upon total score. This tournament is open to all bowlers by invitation only. Please see tournament rules for more information about the tournament.
