Collegiates May Now Enter Teen Masters!

The Teen Masters is adding a collegiate division effective immediately!  Qualifying for the Teen Masters Collegiate Division National Championships will begin this weekend and continue through the final weekend of May. The Collegiate division's championship event will be staged August 5 - 7 at the South Point. 
As only one (1) squad of competition at the national finals this summer, the maximum field size will be 180 athletes.  The limited number of slots will be filled as follows:
1.  Regional Qualifying - beginning this weekend, March 28 & 29, each remaining regional qualifying event will stage collegiate division qualifying.  The top collegiate boy and top collegiate girl from each singles squad will earn an invitation to compete in Las Vegas.  Additional invitations will be extended to bowlers finishing in top positions at the larger regional events until 180 invitations have been extended.
2.  Teen Masters Alumni - if the regional qualifying events fail to fill the national field, invitations will be offered to eligible bowlers who bowled in the Teen Masters in previous years.
3.  Last Chance Qualifier - an open Last Chance Qualifier will be held in Las Vegas on August 5 to fill any remaining spots.
To be eligible for the Teen Masters Collegiate Division you must be a High School graduate who was 21 or younger as of August 1, 2008.  The division will be certified Youth/Adult, and will offer SMART scholarship awards at both the regional and national levels on a 1:5 ratio.

Gail Regnier Memorial Sportsmanship Award

This is our newest award...in memory of Gail Regnier, Josh's mother, who passed away unexpectedly recently.
Gail was a long time employee of Bradley Bowl (CT) and a USBC Bronze Level Coach with a long interest in junior bowling.

This award will be given to the NeJST competitor who best exemplifies sportsmanship, leadership, positive attitude and enthusiam.

All NeJST competitors and parents will be able to vote for this year's recipient at each of this season's remaining tournaments beginning 3/22/09.

No Outside Food Allowed at Striker's East

The management of Striker's East has asked me to remind all bowlers and parents that they have a nice snack bar and they do NOT ALLOW OUTSIDE FOOD OR DRINK in the center.

Last year some folks that were asked to dispose of their outside food evidently got mad and threw it at the center's door windows. Such behavior will not be tolerated by our organization. Anyone caught behaving in such a manner will be banned from future participation in the tour.

Message Board to post thoughts, ideas re: USBC changes

http://nejst.smfforfree.com

New message board to post thoughts about USBC's latest changes to the Junior Program and ideas as to what changes, if any, we should make to our program as a result of them.

For now this is a "free" board so we'll have to put up with the ads.

USBC Youth program to make several changes

2/13/2009   By Terry Bigham,  USBC Communications

In an effort to provide a more efficient and rewarding system, the United States Bowling Congress will implement several changes in the USBC Youth program starting with the 2009-10 season.
 
The USBC Board of Directors, based on recommendations by the USBC Youth Committee, approved several major changes to the structure of current USBC Youth programs. As participation in youth sports is on the rise in America, the changes set forth for USBC Youth programs will attract more youth bowlers to participate in certified league play.
 
The changes will affect how memberships are processed, offer a new short-season membership product, restructure the awards program and lower the maximum age for youth bowlers.
 
Membership delivery and processing
Youth bowling represents the future of USBC; therefore, it is vitally important to make it easy for youth league bowlers to become USBC Youth Members. Starting with the 2009-10 season, changes to the membership delivery and processing structure will be put in place to expand the reach of the USBC Youth program. 
 
In the new membership delivery system, bowling centers will have the option to directly process memberships, averages and awards to USBC. In many areas, local associations will continue that function; however, with this change, bowling centers now have the ability to decide whether to take sole responsibility for youth processing, or continue to work with local associations as they have in the past.
 
Additional details concerning the new USBC Youth programs will be released once they are finalized.
 
Membership options
In the past, USBC Youth membership consisted of two products, USBC Youth Standard and USBC Junior Gold. Starting in the 2009-10 season, a third product - USBC Youth Basic Membership - has been added.
 
USBC Youth Basic Membership will cost $5 and be available to all youth who bowl in a league that meets for 12 sessions or less. The Youth Basic Membership benefits include:
           ° USBC Youth Membership Card
           ° One issue of US Youth Bowler
           ° USBC recognized average
           ° The ability to participate in USBC certified tournaments
           ° League award emblems
           ° Purchasable awards
 
In addition, USBC Youth Standard Membership will continue to be offered.  The cost of the Standard membership will be fixed at $17 nationwide. This membership option will be available to all youth, regardless of the length of the league. The current benefits to the Youth Standard Membership are:
           ° USBC Youth Membership Card
           ° Four issues of US Youth Bowler
           ° USBC recognized average
           ° Ability to participate in USBC certified tournaments
           ° Revamped youth awards program
 
In addition to these benefits, the Youth Development Team is pursuing additional membership benefits for the Standard Membership that will be announced at a later date.
 
Junior Gold Membership will continue to have a $30 membership fee and include an upgrade to Sport Bowling Membership; however, for 2009-10, the average requirement has been adjusted to make this elite-level program available to a larger number of the top male and top female youth bowlers.
 
The new average requirement for girls has been adjusted to 150, while the requirement for boys will remain at 175.  The change in average requirement was necessary to extend the program to an equal percentage of the top male and top female youth bowlers.
 
Youth Awards Program
The Youth Awards Program will undergo significant changes for the 2009-10 league season. These changes represent USBC's response to feedback from associations, bowling centers and youth coordinators across the country.
 
The new structure will better match awards to the skill level of the youth bowler. An increased number of special achievement awards have been added to the lineup, raising the total number of awards offered to 25, up from 18.
 
USBC Youth will offer average-based awards for achievement in certified competition in 25-pin intervals for games and 50-pin intervals for series. Awards will be limited to one per season, per achievement.  Once an award has been earned in any classification, bowlers are only eligible for the higher awards on a progressive merit basis.
 
Special achievement awards will be available to bowlers 12 and under, and these awards will carry the Bowlopolis theme and characters.  The emblems will include recognition for a 50, 75 and 100 game as well as a 100, 150, 200, 250 and 300 series.  For a bowler to earn any of these awards, he or she must average below the award score.  For example, a bowler with a 49 average can earn the 50-game emblem.
 
Special achievement awards for all bowlers also have been updated.  All bowlers are eligible to earn emblems starting with a 125 game.  Game-score emblems continue in 25-pin increments up to a 275 game.  Also, series awards begin at 300 and are offered in 50-pin intervals up to a 750 series. 
 
All of the emblems will carry new USBC designs for the 2009-10 league season.
 
For the 2009-10 league season, USBC has revamped the High Score Awards Program.  Youth members who bowl a 300 game, 800 series or 900 series will receive a newly-designed USBC honor score ring to commemorate their special achievement.  Also, a new award has been designed for bowlers who roll 11 strikes in a row.
 
Maximum age
Starting with the 2009-10 league season, USBC Youth membership will be available to bowlers who have not reached their 20th birthday on or before Aug. 1 of the current bowling season.

Brattleboro Bowl, Brattleboro, VT - 10/19/08

Our first Vermont event this season drew 23 bowlers to Brattleboro Bowl on October 19th.

On a challenging sport condition Ryan Graywacz (Enfield, CT) was the only bowler to average over 200 during the six games of qualifying with a 1265 series. However, he was defeated in the Major Boys' (ages 15-17) final match by Chris Colella (Templeton, MA). Josh Regnier (Enfield, CT) was third.

Noah Frankforter (Cheshire, CT) had a great day. He won the Shoot-Out, hit the Mystery Score for one half the jackpot, and won the Prep Division (11 and under) defeating Josh McCart (Hoosick Falls, NY) in the final match. Dakota Fleury (Plainfield, VT) was the third place finisher.

Joey Wolfrum (Hoosick Falls, NY) was the Junior Boys Division (12-14).

Jill Goldsworthy (Barre, VT) nearly ran the step-ladder in the Girls Division (12-21) only to fall to the current points leader Alexandra Kiesman (N Attleboro, MA) in the final match. Brianna Amidon (Pittsfield, MA) finished third.

In the Collegiate Boys Division (18-21) Ryan Evans (Acton, MA) won gold. Russell Hagan (Kingston, NH) received the silver medal.

We will be returning to Brattleboro on April 12th at which time the bowlers will be challenged with three differing PBA sport oil patterns - Cheetah  (35'), Viper (37'), and Shark (44'). Each bowler will play 2 games on each condition.

Tournaments #1-20 Now USBC Certified

Based on responses in the discussion on the message board and phone calls I have received, I notified USBC that we would be willing to certify our medal tournaments #1-20. That has been done and we have a new certification certificate reflecting that change.

The Winter Break and Championship/BASH tournaments will not be certified as we will not be using SMART to manage our scholarship money.

Basically, the only change that will effect us will be that the bowlers are now eligible for what awards are left being given by USBC.

Brian Graham from USBC will be following your responses in the message board regarding the awards program. So...here's your opportunity to possibly make a difference in the scheme of things.

USBC wants opinions...

I spoke at length with Brian (and Gary) at USBC this afternoon. 

The long and short of it all is that we must certify our medal tournaments (all but the Winter Break and Championship/Bash Tournaments) in order to qualify Jr Gold advancers this season. Unless I hear opinions to the contrary, I see no reason not to do so.

After our talk, I received the following e-mail from Brian Graham, in which he re-iterates a request he had made to me during our discussions. He wants in-put from youth and parents alike about the types of awards they would like to see for junior bowlers and the scores that should be necessary to obtain such awards.

Brian Graham to kathimccaw@gmail.com  5:01pm

Kathi,

I thank you for taking time to speak with us today.  We really do want to work with you to provide the very best tournament opportunities for youth bowlers, and I have a great deal of appreciation for the work that you do.

Please make sure that you get me some feedback on the USBC Youth awards program.  We are currently in the process of reviewing that program, and I am looking for information from the field.  Ideally, I would like to know what type of awards the youth bowlers are looking for and the scores required to earn those awards.  As you know, the program needs changes.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks,
Brian
817-524-4473 (temp office)

I will be starting a thread on the message board. I hope everyone will chime in with their opinions, suggestions, etc. regarding a re-vamped youth bowler awards program so that we can send them on to Brian....

NOV 2ND TOURNAMENT LOCATION CHANGE

I have been notified by AMF Silver Lanes that they will be unable to host our Nov 2nd tournament. I am not able to move it up the following weekend as I will be out of town.

(To compensate they are giving us a break on lineage for the Winter Break Tournament in December. That will increase the scholarships we will be able to award!)

We will be holding the November 2nd tournament at North Bowl Lanes in N. Attleboro, MA. I understand it is under new ownership/management - for anyone who remembers the disaster we had there a few years ago. They have booked us for 1PM.

Please pass the word about this change.

USBC is starting again!!!!

I received the following e-mail this morning:

Dear Kathi McCaw,

USBC has received information indicating that the NEJST Tour has been offering Junior Gold Qualifiying events as a side event within NEJST tournaments.  The evidence suggests that scores from non-USBC certified NEJST events are being taken and used in a secondary competition, a USBC certified Junior Gold Qualifier.

Junior Gold and USBC rules do not allow the scores from non-certified competitions to be submitted into a USBC certified competition. (See USBC Rule 302b)

In order to determine the compliance of the NEJST Junior Gold Qualifiers (USBC certification # 04307) with Junior Gold and USBC rules we are requesting the following information be submitted for any Junior Gold qualifier where spots for the 2009 event were awarded.

1 - A complete listing of the participants and their JG qualifying scores in each 2009 qualifying event.

2 - The standings for the respective NEJST tour events that were scheduled at the same date and time as the Junior Gold qualifier.

We request that this information be submitted to USBC by October 29, 2008.  It can be submitted via e-mail to gary.schmit@bowl.com, by fax to 817-633-3810 or by mail to USBC, 621 Six Flags Drive, Arlington, TX 76011.

If it is determined that the qualifying events for the 2009 USBC Junior Gold Championships are in violation of Junior Gold and USBC rules, we will have no alternative but to void the results of these events and notify the participants they must qualify for the 2009 USBC Junior Gold Championships through another event.

Until this investigation is concluded, any further requests for additional Junior Gold spots will be held.

Your timely compliance with this request is appreciated.

Sincerely,

Gary Schmit
USBC Youth Tournament Manager



and I responded with the following:

Gary:

Needless to say I was quite surprised to receive your e-mail today. I thought this situation had been settled two years ago. And as far as I am aware USBC's rules in this regard have not changed since that time.

Please reference the e-mail, copied below, from Maureen Vicena dated 9/21/06 in which she informed me that USBC had OK'd our Jr Gold Qualifiers. Nothing in our tour has changed since that time.

Please let me know if you still require further documentation of some sort.

Kathi:

It was very nice to speak with you today.

As we discussed, you have "two parts" of qualifying going on during your tour stops.  On one "set" of lanes are JG athletes competing for the chance to advance to Buffalo (ratio of 1:5.... separate divisions if you have enough in a gender).  The other "set" of lanes are non-JG athletes still bowling the six games of qualifying.  After both "sets" have bowled their six games, all scores are combined and the top 5 (additional advancers if more than 15 athletes enter your event) go to a stepladder finals were only medals are given out.  At no time are scholarships awarded during these stops.

The June event is the Year End tournament.  This tournament is only comprised of athletes that have bowled 7 or more of the "tour stops".  It is not based on points, etc.  However... at this event there are scholarships awarded.  You have indicated that you do not wish to use SMART for the scholarships.  Thus, this specific event could not be certified since you will not be using SMART.  The individual stop CAN be totally certified if you choose since no scholarships are being awarded and the awards are in compliance with Rule 400 (i.e. medals).  But that choice is up to you.

The individual tour stops are still recognized by Junior Gold.  These "sets of lanes" that are earmarked for Junior Gold are also covered by USBC since you have certified those initial 6 games.

I hope this helps.  Please let me know if I can be of any further assistance.
