QUALIFYING
Squad A -- Noon
Check-In -- 11:00am to 11:59am

FORMAT A
Qualifying: 4-games across 4 pairs of lanes.
Eliminator: Cut to top 15 (based on 60 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 the first round.  Wild card will be the highest total pinfall score who wasn't in the cut for that round.  With 60 entries, the top 15 would make the cut.  15 would cut to the top 7 + the 1 wild card.  Remaining 8 would cut to 4, then cut to 2, then one final game for the top 2.
Prize Ratio:  A minimum of 1 in 4 entries will cash in this event.

FORMAT IS BASED ON A FULL FIELD OF 60 BOWLERS

2025/2026 NORTHERN MICHIGAN REGION AND FLINT/TRI-CITIES REGION
The season starts with the October Bellaire event, but starting with the Cheboygan event we will take $5/entry to put toward a point system.  The point system will work the same as the Sprummer points that we run, and each bowler's top 5 events will count toward their personal points.  In August we will have a Northern MI Championship, and the top 8 bowlers in points leading up to that event will battle it out for the cash.  It will be a separate prize pool and will pay out based on the Championship standings.  If one of the top 8 cannot bowl in the championship, then they will get the last cash money in that prize fund.  If we get $3000 or more in the points prize fund, we will pay the top 10.  $2500-$2999 we pay the top 9.  $2499 or less, and we'll pay the top 8.  This event will also count toward points for the Flint/Tri-Cities Sprummer region!
