BOWLIUM LANES (Sunday)

champs and finalists

            Elias O'Hollaren completed a dream weekend, while Jerry Wang finally earned his first win, in terrific JBT Southern California Conference action at Montclair's Bowlium Lanes.

            Leoj Chin began the scratch division stepladder finals with a 182-160 win over Brandon Rother.  Next up was his doubles partner from yesterday, Daniel Hong, now bitter mortal enemies.  Leoj outlasted Daniel in that match, advancing him to the title game.  Chin has been close but hasn't yet won a JBT title, and Elias O'Hollaren was not in a giving mood despite the holiday. He dominated the event on the challenging short pattern, and strung the strikes again in the final, winning the match to sweep the weekend and claim the 15th title of his JBT career, only the 25th bowler to reach that impressive milestone.

            Jon Abgania began the handicap stepladder with a win over Ileana Garcia.  Wang then stopped Jon to reach the title match.  Tyler Ros would be his opponent, who unfortunately caught a forearm cramp right before the match began.  He bravely fought through it, but couldn't bowl his 'a' game.  It might not have been enough anyway, as Wang slammed the first five strikes and was able to cruise to the win, winning a long awaited first career JBT title.

        Katelyn Abigania and Lindsay Greim went at it again in the girls scratch final, with both girls bowling great but Katelyn coming out with the win.  Elias had previously won U17 with a defeat of Rother in round two.  Giant thanks to Al and the crew at Bowlium for being great hosts, as well as all of our sponsors for helping make the Tour possible.  Want in on all the fun for all ages and skill levels?

TOTAL AWARDED THIS EVENT: $3,125

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Date: Sunday November 26, 2023  (This is ONE tournament that is one day long, open to anyone age 21 & under as of 8/1/23). 

Start Time: Bowling begins at 10 AM.

Re-entries?:  There's only one qualifying squad, so there are no re-entries this event..

Reservations:  Please email director@bowljbt.com to reserve a spot.  You can prepay (not required) at the 'Prepaying' section of this website.  Reservations (paid or unpaid) must check in no later than 15 minutes before start time.  At that time, all bowlers will be taken on a first come, first serve basis until the field is full.

Format: Qualifying round is 5 games.  The top 40% advance to round two.  Round two formats vary week to week to keep it fresh and exciting, and are released no later than the week of the event.   

Divisions/ Averages:  Scratch or handicap.  It is the bowlers' choice of division.  Also, everyone age 16 or under as of 8/1/23 is automatically entered in the U-17 side event.   Also, every female is automatically entered in the Girls Scratch side event.   If this is your first JBT event this season, we will be asking for average info.  In most cases, your highest average from any current form of organized competition of at least 15 games is what we need.  If you bowl in multiple leagues / clubs, bring everything and we'll sort it out for you.  If you don't have 15+ games in any organized competition this season, we need your finishing 22-23 average, and any 2023 summer averages.  After your first JBT event, your average is re-rated before every JBT event according to JBT rules.  Please see JBT Rule 13 for complete details.

Points:  This event counts for So Cal and All-Conference points.  Points qualify you for the big money season-ending Invitationals and Touring Players Championship, so get all you can.  Visit the 'statistics' section of the website to check on your points.  At the end of the season, the top 32 in So Cal points, plus anyone who had TWO top-5 finishes in So Cal events this season, advance to their respective Invitationals.

Entry fee: $60.  Scholarship brackets are available for $2 each.  Raffle tickets for bowling balls from the brands of Brunswick, and our PowerBowl and '28' jackpots, are available on-site. 

Sponsor Incentive bonuses:  1) IAM Bowling: Bowlers making the final match of an event (scratch or handicap) wearing an IAM patch (good), any IAM shirt (better), or an IAM JBT shirt (best) earn point bonuses towards a $5,000 IAM incentive jackpot.  (The IAM patch is requested to be worn by all bowlers).   2) Virtue Bowling: Bowlers making the final match of an event (scratch or handicap, win or lose), using a Virtue Bowling shirt or patch, and a Virtue drilled ball, earn a $25 Virtue gift card.  (These sponsorships are pending final renewal for the new season.)

Covid details: JBT events follow- at least- all local Covid safety protocols, which you must be prepared for.   Please stay posted so you're not surprised about anything required of you. 

Scholarships: 1:6 in each division earn scholarships, scratch and handicap.  Minimum prizes are $300, $150, $100, $60.  Bowlers must finish in the top 5 twice this season in that conference to qualify for that conference's Invitational, which features $1,000 for first place.  Bowlers who finish in the top 20 in a conference's points race, or the top 100 in all-conference points, qualify for the Touring Players Championship, featuring $2,800 for first.

Lane conditions: conditions vary from event to event, and are not posted prior to the event (unless otherwise announced).  Some events do not post the pattern until after qualifying, or even at all.  Be ready for anything- it makes you a better bowler!  Check out previous patterns and corresponding cut scores at the 'lane conditions' section of this website.

Dress code:  Anything goes EXCEPT tank tops, gym shorts, clothing promoting alcohol, drugs, or firearms, or excessively ripped or short clothing, subject solely to the director's discretion.  However, bowlers wearing slacks or dress shorts/skirts, and a 'name shirt' or PBA-style 'dye-sub' shirt, or college or high school team shirt, earn an extra 10 points on their season-long points total.  If you're not sure about dress code, check with us.  If you're new to us, the vast majority of the bowlers do dress in the 'bonus' dress code, and those points become very important, so plan accordingly.

RESERVED BOWLERS:

This reservation is an expectation that you will be bowling.  PLEASE do not forget to contact us if you need to cancel or adjust your reservation.  Repeated 'no-shows' may result in you not being able to reserve a spot.  This list may not be updated after the Friday of the event as we travel, etc.  However, walk-ins / late entries are still gladly accepted as space permits.  There is generally plenty of room for walk-ins / late entries, and we'll  post here clearly if an event is nearing sellout or sold out.

no.
