Bowler of the Year Formula:

A. You will receive 5 points for each of the first five tournaments you bowl during the season, 10 points for each of the next 3 tournaments bowled and 20 points for the last two tournaments bowled, for a maximum total of 120 points.

B. Points for the semifinals will be computed using the following formula:
1st Place = (Number of cuts * 10)
2nd Place = 1st Place Points * 0.9
3rd Place = 2nd Place Points * 0.9
4th Place = 3rd Place Points * 0.9
etc.

No semi-finalist will receive fewer than 10 points.

Points awarded for the Championship Tournament will be worth 1.5 times the above calculation.

C. You will receive 1 point for every $5 won (not including side pots, brackets or perfect game Jackpot).

D. You will receive 5 points for every pin your season's average is over your beginning of the year average class. The number of points your receive for average improvement will fluctuate during the season as your average changes. (Class A: 215, Class B: 209, Class C: 203, Class D: 196, Class E: 186, Class F: 176, Class G: 165)

E. You will receive 15 points for leading your class. In case of ties, the 15 points will be split.

F. To be eligible, a member must have bowled 5 tournaments, excluding the Masters.

G. Cash prizes will be awarded to the top 10% of eligible bowlers.

*Money Average = True Bowling Average + 1 pin for each $300 won (no rounding). This this is the average used for re-rates.
