DynamicSSC Official Bowling Rules

Individual Handicaps

The handicap shall be 90 percent of the difference between the bowler's average and 210. The handicap shall not be limited.

The first night's average shall be used for the first 2 games bowled to determine a handicap and it will adjust weekly based on the bowler’s scores.

If a bowler misses the first night, that bowler's average will be determined in week 2 after two games have been bowled. Their week 1 score will be determined retroactively.

1 point is awarded to the winner of each team game 1 point is awarded for the winner of the team series (total pinfall with handicap).

When bowling against a BYE: The team must bowl within 50 pins of the team average to win the points. The team average is the sum of the averages of the bowlers who bowled. In the case of a "tie", the team wins the points (points are not split).

When bowling against a FORFEIT: The team must bowl within 50 pins of the team average to win the points. The team average is the sum of the averages of the bowlers who bowled. In the case of a "tie", the team wins the points (points are not split).

Team Standings

Team standings are determined by the percentage of wins to losses for each team.

Total pinfall WITH HDCP then Actual Games Won (not points) is the priority in how to break Team Standings ties when teams are tied in Points Won.

Absent Bowlers

If a bowler is absent, one of two things may occur.

  1. The bowler may make up their bowling either before Thursday or by Tuesday of the following week
  2. We will use the bowler's average

Substitutes are allowed as a pacer only if absent bowler chooses to use his/her average in lieu of making up games.
