Format
All bowlers will bowl five (5) games in Qualifying Round #1 and five (5) games in Qualifying Round #2.
At the conclusion of the two Qualifying Rounds, all bowler’s total scores in each division will be pooled and the field will be cut to the top 8 bowlers in each division. In the event of a tie(s) for the final position, a one-game roll-off will take place immediately to break the tie. If a one (1) game roll-off ends in a tie, all tied competitors for the alternate position will compete in a one (1) ball sudden death roll-off to determine the winner.
The top 8 bowlers in each division will advance to compete in a Two-Game Elimination Match Play bracket round. Seeding for the Two-Game Game Elimination Match Play will be determined by a bowler’s total pinfall from the two Qualifying Rounds. A standard 8-person bracket will be used. A bowler must win both games to advance in the bracket.
In the event of a tie during any Elimination Match Play match, competitors will compete in a one (1) ball sudden death roll-off. The highest seeded competitor shall determine starting lane and order for the roll-off. The competitors will alternate lanes in the same bowling order until the tie is broken.
If each bowler wins one of the two games in the Elimination Match, competitors will compete in a one (1) ball sudden death roll-off to determine the winner. The highest seeded competitor shall determine starting lane and order for the roll-off. The competitors will alternate lanes in the same bowling order until the tie is broken.
The remaining bowler after completion of the Two-Game Elimination Match Play will be declared the Tournament Champion.
