DIVISION SCHEDULEDoubles qualifying · Saturday, July 24 · 8:00 AMView scheduleClose schedule

PBO Doubles Challenge. Two bowlers, one team. Each bowler registers and pays individually. Enter your partner’s name during registration and confirm a matching registered bowler as your teammate. Your entries are paired for scoring once both are paid. If your partner has not registered yet, save their name and confirm your teammate from My Events when they register. Entry fees and capacity are per bowler.

QUALIFYING
Doubles qualifying · 6 traditional games eachSaturday, July 24 · 8:00 AM

Combine both partners’ 6-game scratch blocks into a 12-score team total. After every qualifying squad finishes, the top one in four eligible teams advance, rounded up, with a minimum cut of two teams. At least two eligible teams and complete qualifying scores are required to start match play.

MATCH PLAY
Seeded knockout championshipPublished start · Sunday, July 25 · 8:00 AM

Each team bowls one full traditional game per partner, then 2 Baker team games. Add those 4 scores; the higher total wins and advances. Pins reset for every match. Qualifying determines seeding only. Highest seeds receive opening byes when needed.

Partners alternate frames in each Baker game and switch odd/even frame roles between Baker games. The bowler assigned frame 10 completes any fill balls.

Qualifying ties affecting the cut or a seed use one Baker roll-off, repeated among teams still tied. Tied matches use one Baker roll-off, repeated until a winner. Partners switch odd/even roles after each roll-off. Roll-off scores break ties only and are not added to totals.

The published match-play start begins 10 minutes of warmup. Allow 60 minutes per championship round, 15 minutes between rounds for score verification and pair changeover, and 20 minutes for awards. These changeovers do not include a full re-oil. The final uses the same 4-score format. Staff confirm each round’s start after the prior round is verified.

This timetable assumes one matchup per lane pair, with four bowlers on that pair, and all matches in each round running concurrently. Fewer available pairs require a longer schedule.

Estimated 4-round timetable. Based on a planning field of 52 teams and a cut to 13. Actual team entries, byes, ties, and playing pace can change the finishing time.
