ROVING SUBS will be allowed.  The regular bowler is responsible for league fees if a sub bowls. Subs may be either sex, as long as one female or male is present. Permanent subs or 6^th bowlers will be allowed toward the legal lineup. All roving subs must have at least 21 games to bowl position round. If a vacancy exists, a roving sub can bowl for that spot but must pay the full fee for bowling. ALL SUBS MUST BE SANCTIONED. NO NEW SUBS THE LAST THREE WEEKS OF BOWLING STARTING AUGUST 25, 2026.

If a bowler is late and a legal line-up is present, they make up the first three frames as long as they arrive by the end of the third frame. However, if they arrive after the beginning of the fourth frame, they may not make up the frames but may bowl at the frame that is present. A bowler’s average – 10 will be used up to the start of the frame the bowler walks into. If a bowler needs to leave early, they bowl out if necessary.

The captain of the team must notify a league officer within 10 hours (8am) of a scheduled game unless there is an emergency. As a courtesy, please notify the opposing team captain of the postponement. A team captains list will be given to each team captain.  Bowling unopposed will be allowed.
