Leagues

Leagues offer those interested in bowling, billiards or table tennis the chance to compete weekly for bragging rights and prizes. Leagues are different from tournaments and clubs in the following areas:

  • Leagues are a semester long commitment.
  • Leagues meet on the same day at the same time every week.
  • In order to remain competitive, you must attend every week. If you miss a week, it makes it difficult to place high in the final standings.
  • Scores are kept weekly, and are cumulative, yielding a semester champion.
  • Prizes awarded at the end of each semester.
  • Some leagues are handicapped, giving beginners the chance to compete against experienced players.
  • Other leagues may be split into beginner and advanced divisions with no handicapping system.
