AMF DESERT HILLS

champs and finalists

            Cesar Padilla put an exclamation mark on a dominant weekend, while Cameron Coleman pulled off an upset for another win, in exciting Arizona Conference JBT action at Phoenix's AMF Desert Hills Lanes.

            Finalists competed in matchplay with a re-seed after each round, with the highest survivor playing the lowest.  In scratch semis, Padilla rolled past Nathan Bravo, while in the other match, Daunte Uribarri blasted 277 to defeat Amarr Bryant and advance to the title game.  In the final, Daunte couldn't find the same look, and Cesar kept pouring on the strikes, winning the match, sweeping the weekend, extending his points lead, and earning JBT title number eleven.

            Coleman got past points leader Alex London in one handicap semifinal, but the other match stole the spotlight, as 12 year-old Christian Ortega ran the front eleven strikes before a final shot miss for 296, beating Connor Lee Haven Barker (who had previously taken out the top two seeds) to advance to the finals.  It looked like Christian would ride the momentum to the win, but late mistakes from Ortega and a late charge from Coleman were good enough to swipe away the win, the third title of Cameron's JBT career.

            Mackenzie Paige rolled to the top girls scratch spot, then beat Paityn Gaines for the title.  Asher Toberer completed a successful weekend with a win over Zackary Evans for the U17 crown.  Big thanks to Steven and the Desert Hills team for a great first visit to their center since 2008!  Want in on all this fun for all skill levels and ages?  Just check out our schedule and come on down!

TOTAL AWARDED THIS EVENT: $2,190

 

 

 

Date: Sunday March 3, 2024  (This is ONE singles tournament that is one day long, open to anyone age 21 & under as of 8/1/23). 

Start Time: Bowling begins at 10 AM.  Please be on line to check in no later than 30 minutes prior to start time.  We are usually ready to check in 90 minutes-two hours prior to start time.

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% of each field to a maximum of 16, advance to two game total pinfall matches, with re-seeding after each round.  Rounds of 4 and 2 are single games.

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 Arizona 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 Arizona points, plus anyone who had TWO top-5 finishes in Arizona 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.  

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.
