Email received from Peter Hagin on the California "Anti-State" tournamentThe 2014 California’s Better Prize Fund Tournament, more commonly known as the “Anti-State†has made a few changes to make itself even more bowler friendly!The revised flyer, entry form, & rules can be found at www.bowlbayarea.com .First of all, to adhere more to the bowling season, the dates of the event have been pushed back. The event will now begin on Saturday August 30th and run 4 weekends through September 21st.Also, we now have given bowlers more ways to complete the tournament in one day if they choose. Each day will now have at least 1 Doubles & Singles squad and 1 team squad. On both days, D & S will begin at 9:30 A.M.and after a break to clean & oil, the team squad will begin at 1:30 P.M. In addition, 3 of the 4 Saturdays will have a 7:00 P.M. squad. For the scratch player, we’ve set aside a team squad just for you, Saturday September 6th @ 7:00 P.M. On this squad, the scratch high game pots are GUARANTEED to pay at least $100 for 1st & $50 for 2nd each game. The scratch high series pot is GUARANTEED to pay at least $200 for 1st & $100 for 2nd. All teams on this squad must play either one of the scratch divisions or the 800 & Up handicap divisions.
Ladies, if you bowled in Stockton just $4 from your $30 entry went to the Prize Fund. If you bowl the Anti-State, we’ll put more than 4X that amount in. They posted their prize fund and nobody made more than $100 if the WON the team event. $17 vs. $4 If you bowled an open division tournament in San Diego, just $5.50 of your $30 entry went into the Prize Fund. If you bowl the Anti-State, we’ll put more than 3X that amount in. $17 vs. $5.50 I was told by a California Hall of Famer that the same tournament, which moves both divisions to Oroville in 2015 announced at their convention that their prize fund is increased to $8.50. However, they didn’t announce that they are increasing their entry fee to $35 per person per event.
The CBPFT has 5 different divisions, so we have something for everyone! We have 2 scratch, 3 handicap, & 2 divisions for women. Teams, doubles, & singles can enter more than 1 division with the same scores. To enter an additional division, the cost is only $20 AND $17 of that goes into the prize fund.
Confirm your spot in the 1st CBPFT (Anti-State) by sending your entry to Diablo Valley Bowl, 1500 Monument Blvd., Concord, CA 94520…Attn: CBPFT
You can also reserve your spot with an email to bowl857@comcast.net , however payment needs to be made at least 7 days prior to bowling.
