Are INT'L balls legal for U.S. Competition
« on: May 13, 2008, 06:50:58 AM »
I was just wondering if it is legal to purchase an INT'L ball and use it in USBC sanctioned events.

It depends on the ball. Some of them are, some of them arent.

Check there and see if your ball is listed. If your ball is on that list, than you can use it in USBC Competition.

Most of the mainline international releases are approved.  One-offs for an overseas distributor may not be.
