If you are youth sanctioned thru the league then the league is youth sanctioned.

As I said I would finish the year and then switch.

thing is you have a choice to sanction usbc men/women or choose usbc youth. Some of us are sanctioned youth and some adult.

clohm1 and the rest of you all that decided to read my profile and read my replies, thank you

To the rest of you all pleze learn how to read. There is no 13-16 yr olds. i only bowl with 19yr old+ and the only tournaments i have traveled to are COLLEGE TOURNAMENTS, which means i only bowl with people MY AGE.

Personally, I never understood the 21 year cut-off. 18....... or 19 tops. Thats it. Move on up......
Red, I would just bowl the tourn.. It doesnt sound like you have anything to gain by not. Around here, youths dont get money for winning anything. Its all trophies and such(do youth bowlers get money for winning in your area?). Accepting cash results in forfeiture of amateur status and any chance of getting bowling scholarships or etc.. Sounds like youre past that point......
