Unfortunately we are cancelling the State Finals due to the COVID-19 situation.
That said, here are a few things we will be doing.
That said, here are a few things we will be doing.
- Current plans are to continue to have a total payoff of approximately what we had last year. We have a lot of unassigned SMART money (which we would have used anyway) and will analyze the situation and put a good amount of that towards zone prize funds. While I cannot say exactly, we may be able to increase zone payouts by a factor of 2.5 or maybe more (i.e. a $100 zone prize could be $250). Any moneys put in will be 100% proportional to the number of players in each zone and/or division
- We will continue with some of our past practices which will include
- We will still award medals to the top three in each division in each zone
- All potential state finalists will receive a commemorative state tournament pin just as in the past
- All scholarship winners will receive a certificate of scholarship just as in the past
- All potential advancers but non scholarship winners will receive a certificate of advancing to the state tournament
- We will still award medals to the top three in each division in each zone
- It will take some time to order/receive pins and medals. We will mail these to the bowlers. With approx 650 bowlers, this will take a while once we get them in so please be patient on this
- We should be able to determine the scholarship amounts in the next couple of weeks and post those on the website (with the standings). Upon completion we will send to SMART for their posting.
