Just wanted to let you all know that Crest bowl, in Florissant, Missouri, is starting a new format of league on September 21st (Thursday Nights) in which you will use a plastic ball at everything. You bring your own ball, and that is the only ball you're allowed to use. Once you register it, there's no turning back. The league will bowl 3 games on Thursday nights at apprx. 9:45. The league begins on September 21st and ends on January 4th.

Acceptable balls are Polyester and Viz-A-Balls.

The league features the 4,3,2,&1 point system. How this works is that it's position round every week. 4 bowlers on a pair. High 2 games move two lanes to the right, low 2 move one to the left. If there is a tie, a one frame rolloff will occur until there is a winner.

Here's a breakdown based on 24 bowlers.

Per bowler:

$50 Deposit
$20 per week x 16 weeks
Total = $370

Bowling Fees = $112

Total Prize Fund = $258

Total Bowlers (Based on 24 bowlers)

$50 Deposits = $1,200
$20 Per Week = $7,680
Total = $8,880

Bowling Fees = $2,688

Total Prize Fund = $6,192

How the payout will break down:

1 = $1,000
2 = $650
3 = $500
4 = $450
5 = $400
6 = $350
7 = $300
8 = $250
9 = $200
10 = $190
11 = $180
12 = $170
13 = $160
14 = $150
15 = $145

19 = $125
20 = $120
21 = $115
22 = $110

If you are interested, please call 314-837-0494 and talk to either Mike Flanagan or Ricky Matsko. We currently have around 15 people for the league, so we need bowlers. If you know anyone that would be interested, let them know about the league.

I'm also going to attempt to do brackets and eliminators every week. We use BLS up there, so I'm sure we can run things pretty smoothly.

Thanks.
