Scholarship Fund

We need to think about our scholarship fund from the outset. At the moment, we are the only "sponsors" of our tour. Any ideas for raising funds for the Championship will be greatly appreciated.

I had asked, on the message board, for everyone to vote on whether or not to have membership fees for the Tour. The poll was to vote for $10 dues, $15, other amount, or none. So far there has been 63 views of the poll but only a whopping 3 votes!

We will be selling Tournament Record score books. The printing is being donated by EPS Printing in S. Windsor. All net proceeds will go directly to the Scholarship Fund.

Let's hear some ideas.....

Rules updated

1. Instead of individual scorecards, we are going to use 1 scoresheet for each pair of lanes. It will be the "A" bowler's responsibility to record all the scores. It will be the responsibility of each bowler to verify that his/her score is recorded correctly. It will be the responsibility of the last bowler to finish on the pair to bring the scoresheet to the tournament desk after each game so that scores can be tabulated.

2. To qualify for the Championship Tournament, a bowler must participate in at least 7 of the 22 scheduled events.

3. Due to the above, points will be awarded in each division for a Bowler of the Year Award as follows:

10- for just showing up to bowl
10- for each event you come to more than the 7 to qualify for the Championship
5- for being high qualifier after 4/6 games
15- for 1st place
10- for 2nd place
7- for 3rd place
5- for 4th place
3- for 5th place
and 1- for every bowler you finish ahead of
