qualify for All Events.

started. In the Singles event, no substitutes may be made after the series has started. If no substitute is available only the
actual score of the frames bowled shall count.
Paid all events are not transferable unless the substitute replaces the original entrant in all three events. The transfer is
made by the Tournament Director prior to the time of the substitute’s participation in any event.
A substitute will not be required to reimburse the original entrant with the entry fee paid nor shall the substitute be expected
to give the original entrant any prize money or trophy she may win.
When a bowler competes more than once, her first score in each event shall count towards her all events.
The line-up shall be the same as shown on the entry blank. A substitute shall take the place of the original entrant as

the right to bowl in the scheduled event.

approval of tournament management. The decision of tournament management shall be final, except where an appeal is
made to USBC for final consideration.
