BLS-2025 lets you create and manage awards for your bowling league. You can organize awards into different groups:

• Bowling Center Awards

• Local Association Awards

• State Association Awards

• Other Awards (for leagues not part of USBC or CTF)

Viewing and Managing Awards

To see or change awards:

1. Click on the tab for the award group you want (like "Bowling Center Awards").

2. You'll see a list of awards in that group.

3. Click on an award to see its details.

4. To rename a group, click its tab and type the new name.

Note for "Other Awards"

Use the "Other Awards" tab if your league is with a group other than USBC or CTF. Make sure to set this up under Setup > League > Rules > What Is This League > Will be sanctioned in.

Adding a New Award

   • Association Required: Pick the group (like USBC).

   • Award Applies To: Choose who can earn it (e.g., male, female, all).

   • Type of Award: Select the kind of award.

   • Frequency: Decide how often someone can earn it.

4. Set the rules for earning the award based on its type.

Types of Awards

• Miscellaneous Award: For things like clean games or splits.

• Game or Series Award: Based on scores. You can set it for exact scores, score ranges, or scores over average.

• Triplicate or Stepladder Award: For getting the same score in multiple games or increasing/decreasing scores in a pattern.

• Progressive Award: For scores within certain average ranges (like a 600 series for bowlers with an average of 150 or less). Note: To use age restrictions, make sure each bowler's birthday is entered.
