Visit BOWL.com/MobileApp 3 USBC Chapter 1: Introduction Membership Membership in USBC is composed of adults and youth who have paid the appropriate USBC, and if applicable, state and local association dues. Valid membership entitles the bowler to participate in all USBC competition for which they are otherwise qualified. Upon obtaining membership in USBC, each member agrees to be bound by USBC’s final decisions involving the interpretation, application, and/or enforcement of the USBC Bylaws, USBC Playing Rules, and all matters concerning bowling as governed by the USBC, and each member further agrees that such final decisions of USBC shall be conclusive. How Obtained USBC Adult membership may be obtained through a league, tournament, chartered local association, or via BOWL.com. USBC Youth membership may be obtained through a bowling center, league, or tournament. When Paid Annual USBC membership dues, currently known, shall be paid before: a. Adult: Completion of the bowler’s first series in league competition. (See Rule 101.) b. Youth: The bowler’s third session of league competition. (See Rule 101.) c. Participation in a tournament. (See Effective Date below and Rule 300c.) Effective Date Upon receipt of a membership application and the appropriate dues, membership will be valid: a. For the season starting August 1 through July 31. b. Through October 1 of the following season for summer leagues and tournaments. Youth who turn 20 during the season are not granted the October 1 extension for tournament play; youth membership expires July 31 of the season in which they turn 20 years old. If a youth member bowling in a summer league turns 20 during the season and the league continues beyond July 31, the bowler may complete the league as a youth bowler. For membership to be effective as of the date purchased in a league, the league secretary/bowling center must forward the league membership dues, application cards and league application to the local association/league processor (youth) within 30 days. Otherwise, membership benefits are not effective until the date received at the local association office/league processor (youth). Types of Membership Youth Standard USBC Youth membership is available to individuals who have not reached their 20th birthday prior to August 1 of the current bowling season. USBC Youth membership dues may only be changed by the USBC Board based on recommendations from the IBC Youth Committee. USBC Youth members are required to pay Standard $4 dues annually. Adult Standard The maximum Standard National and State membership dues structure for adults may only be changed by the USBC delegation. Standard local membership dues are established by the local membership at the local annual meeting. Standard membership dues paid annually are $10.00 National dues plus State dues up to a maximum of $5.00 and Local dues as determined by the local membership at the local association annual meeting. An adult bowler must pay dues in each local association in which he/she applies for membership and/or bowls, except as provided in Rule 100e, Traveling leagues, or Rule 100l, Mail-o-Graphic leagues, or if the associations have a reciprocal agreement to waive dues.

  • Bowling, a Pastime Long Associated with Blue-Collar Americans
    36 2 0 1 1 N UMBER 4 | E NGLISH T EACHING F ORUM by Phyllis McIntosh Art might seem to have little in common with bowling, a pastime long associated with blue-collar Americans. A bowling alley (the traditional name for a bowling establishment) is the last place one would expect to find an art gallery. But Lucky Strike, a chain of chic upscale bowling centers, proudly claims its passion for the arts. Its lanes and lounges in 22 cities nationwide are famous for their ever-changing video displays of works by dozens of emerging artists. Lucky Strike’s innovation is just one example of bowling’s dramatic transformation over the past few decades. Once a no-frills sport played mostly by lower-middle-income workers in sponsored leagues, bowling has become the centerpiece of high-tech family entertainment complexes and fancy clubs that appeal to trendy urbanites. As a result, bowling is enjoying a resurgence in popularity, especially among the young. According to the United States Bowling Congress (USBC), more than 70 million Americans bowl each year, which makes bowling one of the most popular participation sports in the United States. The Golden Age of Bowling Of all American pastimes, bowling is one of the easiest to pursue. Just show up at Bowlers are required to the neighborhood bowling center, rent the required shoes, use the balls provided, and wear shoes like these, which won’t mar the floor of the pay a reasonable fee to bowl as many games as you like. The game itself—rolling a bowling alley.

  • Introduction to Operations Handbook
    CENTRAL ALABAMA USBC ASSOCIATION INTRODUCTION TO OPERATIONS HANDBOOK INTRODUCTION The Central Alabama USBC Association has the responsibility to govern the sport of bowling in Central Alabama. To that purpose, we are organized with a Board of Directors, Officers and Committees. We employ an Association Manager to handle the everyday clerical duties of the Association. The Officers are given the responsibility of decision-making between meetings of the Board of Directors, and of providing liaison with the Standing and Non-Standing Committees. All that we do must comply with the bylaws of the State Association and with the United States Bowling Congress. Within the context of the above functional responsibilities, each Committee must perform certain actions. To assure that Committees will work within the organizational guidelines of USBC and the State Association; as well as, the bylaws of our organization, each Committee is responsible for the preparation of policies and procedures particular to its own functions to be used as a working document to be included in this Operating Manual. Such policies and procedures, when finalized and collated, will provide a picture of how the workings of all the Committees will carry out, without duplication, the responsibilities of the Association. Policies will describe the working environment of a Committee. It will delineate the functions of that Committee and the Committee’s guidelines for decision-making necessary to performing their functions. Policies will relate decision-making to functions consistent with the Association’s bylaws and, if necessary, recommendations to be made for changes in the by-laws. Procedures will describe the processes to be utilized by the Committee in performing its functions.

  • League Development and Retention Best Practices Guide 2012
    LEAGUE DEVELOPMENT AND RETENTION BEST PRACTICES GUIDE 2012 Proprietor Best Practice Programs Compiled from the 2011 Business Trends Survey Developed by the BPAA League Development Committee Bowling Proprietors’ Association of America Page 1 The following pages contain the culmination of submissions from proprietors around the country with Best Practices in the area of League Retention and League Development. At the completion of the 2011 Business Trends Survey, which was developed by the League Development Committee, proprietors were given the opportunity to share their Best Practice in either League Retention or League Development. Over 635 centers were represented in this year’s survey with over 120 Best Practice submissions received. Led by the League Development Committee, BPAA staff reviewed the submissions and selected 49 to be shared with the industry ̶ 20 in the section of League Development and 29 in the section of League Retention. It is important to note that many of the submissions spoke to the need of customer service as a center’s main retention tool. The League Development Committee recognizes that providing exceptional customer service in today’s business world is an imperative in retaining ALL customers including league bowlers. However, the intent of this document is to share ideas and league formats outside of providing exceptional customer service. The result is this two part guide. The first section is League Development (pages 3-16) and the second is League Retention (pages 17-34). Each Best Practice is presented in the same four question format that it was asked. In some cases where a question was not answered, the category is omitted.
