I never saw a prize fund all year and never heard what we were paying for lineage. I guess it is about $8 or so. What a bummer, I was really expecting to get $300 back total from this league. I only got back $210.

Sometimes The High Game Scratch will be made higher due to the fact, especially in a good men's league due to the fact you will have multiple 300s, leading to it being split up in several shares

High game = $3---boy, sure glad I could shoot 300 for $3.
Course there were 10 of them in the league.
Ahhh, the great wall.

Not that our fellow bowlers are trying to cheat or anything, always try and get a payout sheet with breakdown(lineage, sec fee, sweeper money, etc..) for every league so ther are no surprises for anyone. Keep them in a file till the end of a season and then start over per league. This way you can double check all accounting figures as well as I've seen in the past that most people don't read and even the printed version of payouts didn't add up correctly.
The leagues I run, I even offer 3 different payouts to be voted on..top heavy, avg, and conservative. Then I get all the team captains to sign off on the majority vote for payoff ensuring no doubt at the end of a season.

Nothing for another...
Sure am glad that I got my diamond ring for my 811 - the "award" of $10 and a patch just doesn't seem to be enough...

how much goes in?
we pay 17. and 8 goes to the house. 1 or 2 to laegue officals and rest is prize money. we also have 32 teams.
1st in awards was 225 or 250 something like that.
you get what you pay for, if everyone is honest.

We paid $9 a night.
For High Average I got nothing.
For High Series Scratch, 814, i got $15
For 3rd High Seris Handicap, 823, i got $20
Only big money leagues pay for scores and averages generally. Most leagues are very conservative on giving money out and its hard to make any money.
Just my 2 cents.

Individual award payouts: (all awards are for scratch only)
Ladies -
High Average - 25.
High Series - 20.
High Game - 15.
Most Improved -17.
Mixed -
High Average - 20.
High Series - 20.
High Game 20.
Most Improved - 10.
Considering how much I pay weekly the individual award payouts are pretty pathetic. So far I'm eligible to win a whopping $20. in each league. I won quite a bit of money in pots and card games which helps make up for it.
Your $45. looks pretty good to me in comparison to mine.

It's pretty sad when you pay $25 per week for 33 weeks, and the high average comes away with forty bucks.
