USBC rule regarding Nationals
« on: March 08, 2022, 08:31:42 PM »
I'm pretty sure there used to be a rule regarding going to USBC nationals and not getting penalized during league.  I cannot seem to find it.  Would anyone be able to help me out with this?  We have a few guys going to bowl nationals during our  bracket style finals and need to get this clarified quickly any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

117b. Reason A league cannot adopt a rule that would have the effect of not permitting any pre-bowling/ postponements. The league must grant a pre-bowl/postponement when the team is unable to field a legal lineup for the following reasons:
1. Some of its bowlers are participating in the USBC Championships, state or local association championship tournaments or attending an annual meeting.
 2. There is sufficient cause.
 3. An emergency situation.


That makes it pretty clear. Even league specific rules can not override this one.
