The sister site to this one Jeff.  www.leaguesecretary.com">League Secretary  Not all bowling centers are on that site thought ONLY the ones that pay that site.

Some leagues may be found at bowl.com under Standing Sheets. Most of the league secretary programs allow the league standing sheets to upload. This is only if the secretary has taken the time to set up the account.

You can also try a web search for the bowler alley. Some of them do list the league standing sheets on the alley web sites.

That's how several of the houses around here do it also.  See if the center has a web page.  If they do, see if they have a league standings tab.

Different question now everyone ..........

 

I haven't bowled (officially in a league) for quite some time now ....but I'm obviously going to establish an average to fill in on my brothers team.  Does it cost any more, or less considering I already have an 'abc number' or that I used to be registered?  OR ...is it just one re-registration fee, regardless?

 

Thanks peeps .....

depends on how long you have been out of a league. Usually when your abc and with the new usbc rules you will have to start with what they give you for an average. Then you can start going from there but you do have to pay for new registration to become a usbc member. My dad stop bowling in 1994 and now is starting to bowl agian and had to start at a 170 avg for the league i am in. 
 Also it depends on that league how much it is to be sanction i know my league i pay 19 dollars for sanction fee each year.

Thanks sstaz ....  where do you bowl, I see you're in MI?  Thanks for the response, I appreciate it.  Looking on bowl.com, my last average was 2005-2006.   So, I'll pay sancion fees, ...and re-start, or will they start me out where I finished in '06 ???

It won't matter.  ABC became USBC.  You still need to sanction every year regardless.  I think it's ~$20 for sanctioning.  I'm registered in 3 different associations + sport so I can't remember how much a standard sanction fee is.

Every league is different.  You'll have to ask the secretary.  Usually it's house average first, then book average in the local association, then book average out of the local association.  Standard is to use an average that's less than 3 years old.  Past that, you typically establish a new average.
