500 Club’s Scotch Doubles is coming to Bellevue Bowl

The Merced/Atwater Women's 500 Club will be hosting their yearly Scotch Doubles Tournament on Sunday, July 8 starting at 1:30 p.m.

The tourney is open to all USBC card members and the teams can consist of men and women. A Merced/Atwater club member does not have to be a member of a team. You will be using your highest 2017-2018 composite averages as found on Bowl.com.

I think you know the routine as one bowler rolls the first ball, and the other bowler second (trying to pick up the spare left by the first bowler). If the first bowler rolls a strike, positions switch. You will be rolling four games of regular bowling on one pair of lanes.

Entry fee is $25 per bowlers and they will have a 50/50 and mulligan's during the afternoon. Entry forms are now available at the trophy case at Bellevue Bowl. closing date for entries if Friday, July 6. Get your team ready to roll.
