The lane condition for each event will be a house shot. Handicap is 80% of 230 with a maximum handicap game of 300. 16 players will advance to a modified double-elimination match play playoff bracket. All playoff matches will be 1 game and based on scratch scores. There will be 2 qualifying squads - 9am (fresh oil) and Noon (burn squad). The lanes will be re-oiled for the playoff matches. Entry is $85.00 per squad and is cash only. Squad re-entries are allowed but based on availability.
