CBA CHAMPIONSHIP - ALL

|||||||||
Handicaps
(Will use AMF software for this)
Handicaps are added to each individual game each week to
compute HS and added with teammate to determine HTS. Handicaps will be established each week on a
“rolling” basis.
Handicap calculations will always be based upon your NS – or
natural score – what you score without any additional “pins”. All calculations round down in the
end.
We will use AMF Sawmill “Basis” of 210 with 80% factor
(Substitutes will use 70% to prevent substituting bowling “aces”).
Example:
Pre-Season
Natural Score: Game 1
= 115, Game 2 = 120, Game 3 = 125. Total
= 360. Average = 120.
Basis – Average = 210 – 120 = 90.
Factor 80% of 90 = 72
Handicap. The next week you will add 72
to each of your 3 games to determine HS and HTS.
Week 1
Game 1 = 128 natural score (add 72) = 200 HS
Game 2 = 123 nature score (add 72) = 195 HS
Game 3 = 133 natural score (add 72) = 205 HS
Therefore for Week 1 your total HS = 600 (200+195+205). This is added to your teammate to determine
HTS for each game point and series point determination.
Week 2 is calculated as follows:
Total Natural Score = 744 (115+120+125+128+123+133)
Natural Average = 86 (744 divided by 6 games)
80% of 86 = 68.8 = (round down)
68
New Handicap for Week 2
This “rolling” handicap calculation continues with each
weekly series and your natural scores.
CBS
– Crony Bowling Substitutes
CBS will use same handicapping system as a CB – only with a
70% factor instead of 80%
CBS will count for Season Team Points for the week they
substitute.
CBS
are not eligible for any CBA SEASON prize money, ONLY WEEKLY prize
Money. If CBS (and CB partner) wins
weekly individual or team – it is between the CB and the CBS if they are to
split prize money.
CBS will be responsible for paying weekly $15 bowling fee
directly to AMF Sawmill the night they are substituting. CBS is responsible for collecting from CB if
necessary.
At the end of the
season each CB will receive a FREE Bowling Ball!
Each CB will receive
a “league card” upon entry fee. This
gets you personally 2 free games each week and $2.65 per game for family and
friends. You also get 20% off food and
beverage except alcohol.
