QUALIFYING SQUADS
Squad A -- 10:00am
Check-In -- 9:00am - 9:59am

FORMAT A
Qualifying: 5-games across 5 pairs of lanes.
Eliminator: Cut to top 24 (based on 90 entries), then bowlers compete in a 2-game eliminator round cutting the field in half.  Each eliminator round following the first round will be 1-game rounds.  Pins drop after every round, although we will have 1 wild card in each of the first two rounds.  Wild card will be the highest total pinfall score who wasn't in the top half for that round.  Once we get to the top 4, we will have a 3-game round robin to determine the champ.  30 pin bonus for each win and 15 pins for each tie.  3-game totals plus bonus pins determines the top 4 standings.  With 90 entries, the top 23 would make the cut and cut to 11+1.  12 would cut to 6+1.  7 cut to 4.  Round robin match play for the top 4.
Prize Ratio:  A minimum of 1 in 4 entries will cash in this event.

SPECIAL SQUAD RULES
--> Top 4 from Squad A are guaranteed to Sunday's Cashers Rounds
--> Top 4 from Squad B are guaranteed to Sunday's Cashers Rounds

FORMAT
Qualifying: 5-games across 5 pairs of lanes.
Sunday Casher's Round: Warm-ups will start at Noon (assuming the lanes are oiled and ready for us by then).  The cut to Sunday will be an overall cut from A and B after combining scores from those squads plus the top 1/4 from the Sunday squad.  Top 4 from each squad will automatically advance to the Cashers rounds.  Cashers bowl 5 games Sunday and then cut to match play rounds.  Remaining bowlers will compete in a seeded, single-elimination bracket, 2-game total pinfall in each round.  Once we know how many cashers we will have for the event, we will announce what number we will cut to for match play
Prize Ratio:  1 in 4 entries will cash in this event

MATCH PLAY
I vividly remember making up a "thing" that explained how many make it to match play from the cashers rounds...but I cannot find it for the life of me.  Here is what we have done in the past which gives you a solid idea.  We always have it all figured out BEFORE we start the cashers round...I can promise you that.  But it is always based on entries.

2024 -- 180 total entries.  45 in the casher's rounds.  Top 16 to match play
2023 -- 180 total entries.  44 in the cashers rounds.  Top 16 to match play
2022 -- 142 total entries.  37 in the cashers rounds.  Top 12 to match play
2021 -- 143 total entries.  36 in the cashers rounds.  Top 12 to match play
2019 -- 140 total entries.  35 in the cashers rounds.  Top 12 to match play
2018 -- We had a very different format, so it's not applicable.

RE-ENTRY RULES
With the top 4 from Saturday squads automatically qualifying to Sunday's Cashers Rounds, we will start at the highest non-auto-qualifiers (is two dashes legal like that?) and work down the list, however, first time entries get first dibs.  Then we will allow those who already qualified to bowl again if they wish to do so for side action.  

BALL RAFFLES
Various people will be running ball raffles for us prior to the event to help raise more money.  The goal is to pay the following with the extra money raised...
Highest non-cashing lady -- $100
Highest non-cashing senior -- $100
Highest qualifier from A Squad -- $100
Highest qualifier from B Squad -- $100
Highest qualifier from C Squad -- $100
