A New DPBA Season Arrives

While 2008 had its moments, there aren’t too many of us that were sad to see it go. It’s painfully obvious to everyone that we are in the midst of an historic economic slowdown. Everyone has been affected, the DPBA is no different. Even in this tough environment, we had over 200 members and almost 1000 paid entries to our tournaments. While there are things we would change, as there are every year, 2008 was a success. We awarded 8 new stars - some to new faces and some to familiar faces. We witnessed exciting ladder matches and had inspiring personal comebacks. The DPBA is and always has been about the bowlers - their friendships and their rivalries coupled with competition and compassion.

Let’s turn our attention to 2009:

  • There will be 8 Pro-tour events – 4 northern and 4 southern
  • The membership fee remains $50
  • The entry fees for the tours are as follows:
    • Regular - $110
    • Hagerstown - $185
    • The Master’s - $150
  • Qualifiers for Regular tours:
    • Always take a minimum of 24 qualifiers
    • Take 30 qualifiers at 100 entries
    • Take 36 qualifiers at 140 entries
  • The prize lists for all tours have been set (and will not be modified) and can be viewed in the members area
  • You must bowl 2 events to participate in The Master’s
  • Creation of a High-game pool
    • Cost is $10
    • Pays out the high game for each game during the qualifying round
    • If there are 100 entrants, the pool will pay $100 for the high game bowled during game 1,2,3,4,5,6,7, and 8 of the qualifying round.
    • $2 will go to the pro-tour for administrative services.
  • The elimination of the JOE pot
    • The Daily Double $462 – will be awarded to the next high qualifier who wins that respective tour (all bowlers eligible)
    • The remaining $160 will be added to each high game award at Highland Bowl.

Your participation and involvement are what make the Pro-tour a success. Let’s have another successful year.
