Youth Tournaments, please help
« on: December 16, 2003, 05:28:33 PM »
Does anyone know if there are youth tournaments that have good prizes for winning???(i.e. money, balls, so forth) I am only 15 and I was just curious about this. I am not the best bowler, I carry a 150-160 average, but, still I was curious.

15 years and still going strong! 15 years old that is!

Other than scholarships, I do believe juniors are forbidden to accept anything in terms of prizes. If you do than, you loose your amateur status and cannot play in high school events (even baseball and football). Knowing this, there are not alot of paying junior tournaments. You can however receive scholarship programs. Even balls and the like can ruin your amateur status.
