I've been bowling in an AMF house in Raleigh NC on Wednesday night league for the last 6 years. The manager of the house called me today to advise that line fees would be $9 and will increase in November (when new scoring system is installed) to $9.35.

Is this the going rate for leagues?

I always said that things like this is what's killing bowling .. I'm thinking seriously of cutting down my 4 leagues per week this year!

ON EDIT! Cutting down on leagues will certainly cut down the number of balls I buy!

You cannot compare the price you pay as a discounted league bowler per line to the cost the house charges for league lineage. Its going to be different depending on the day you bowl and what time slot you take up.

That's crap!

Our lineage is $12.00 for 3 games. If the leagues aren't there, the center is dead until 9pm. They only get busy at 9pm because they over all your can bowl for $12. 9 to close (some close at 11, some 12) you can bowl as much as you want for the same price as league bowlers are paying for 3 games.

I know league bowlers can be pricks sometimes, but I guarantee they do less damage to the lanes than the people bowling 9 to close - throwing houseballs half way down the lane, hitting the pin sweeper and what not.

And remember one thing. Your league bowlers are commiting to coming in EACH AND EVERY WEEK, for the better part of the year. These aren't the people that come in once a month to drink a couple of pitchers of beer and see how much you can tear up the lanes (although that depends a lot of league bowlers!).

we pay $20 a nite with $9.25 going to lineage and $.50 to the secretary which leaves $10.25 to go toward the prize fund, great mens league with 24, 5 man teams, so not too bad of a prize fund at all.
