| Tournament Format |
The 18 bowlers will be divided into three teams.
The three teams will compete in round robin, Baker style match play with a total of 12 matches taking place. Each team will bowl four matches against the other two teams, with each match taking place on a different oil pattern. The only one of the five PBA oil patterns which will not be used during round robin is the Cheetah pattern as that pattern will be used in the championship round.
With six players on a team, one bowler will sit out each game for the five-man Baker style matches.
After the 12 matches are complete, the top two teams based on match play record will advance to the championship round on Saturday, June 13. The championship round will consist of one singles match, one doubles match and one Baker-style match, with the captains choosing the participants for each match.
The singles and doubles matches will each be worth one point while the Baker match will be worth two points. Should the teams tie, one player from each team who will be determined prior to the start of the competition will participate in a one-ball sudden death roll-off.

| Tournament Notes |
Round Robin Match play will feature a unique scoring system wherein any team striking on their
fill ball in the 10th frame will be allowed to continue until they can
no longer strike. Each additional strike after the fill ball will add
10 bonus pins to the teams final score.
