QUEBEC TENPIN FEDERATION
THANKS EVERYONE FOR YOUR OPINION

YOUR COMMENTS
It would be easier(money and time) for the parents
if the tournament was in 1 week-end.

Its more fair for the bowlers if we take the total of
pins to determine team Quebec.

More games would give the opportunity to all
bowlers to show us how they really want to win.

4
NEW FORMAT
Now in one week-end.

Qualification (AA) on Saturday.
8 games of qualification.
Top 8 advance to Sundays final (AAA).

Final (AAA) on Sunday.
8 games of match-plays Round Robin including a
positions round.
You keep your qualifications total of pins for the final.
Leaders after 16 games including bonus pins will be the
winners.
5
WHY IN ONE WEEK-END?
This year, weve decided to group the AA and the
AAA finals together.

Good points :
Save time for everyone.
Easier for bowlers to get off from work the whole week-
end than 2 Saturdays in the same month.

Bad points :
Hotel for some bowlers.
Final on Sunday.
6
QUALIFICATION (AA) ON SATURDAY
The qualification will be a block of 8 games on one
of the Kegel Challenge patterns selected by the
committee.

Top 8 from each category will advance to Sundays
final on a WTBA pattern.

Please note that you keep your pins from game one
to game 16. So your qualification will be added to
your final and bonus.


7
FINAL (AAA) ON SUNDAY
The final will be an 8 games block of match-plays
"Round Robin including a positions round on a
WTBA pattern. The pattern will be selected by the
committee before the tournament.

Leaders after the 16 games and bonus for the
match-plays will be the winners.

8
ROUND ROBIN
This is probably the most popular way to select a
team. You can see it at the Canadian Team Trials in
may every year.

This format involves your total of pins and match-
plays. If a bowler wins his match, he gets 20 bonus
pins to his game. If he ties, he gets 10. For the final,
a bowler will play a match-play against each other
bowler in his category. The draw will be determined
by the committee. The last game will be the
positions round.
9
POSITIONS ROUND
This game is still a match-play with bonus pins for a
win or a tie. But the opponent is determined by the
standing after 15 games :
1st Vs 2nd, 3rd Vs 4th, 5th Vs 6th et 7th Vs 8th

Same rules as the match-plays, the winner will get
20 bonus pins for a win. 10 pins will go to both
opponents if theres a tie.

The standing after these 16 games will determine
the winners in each division.
10
WHY THIS FORMAT
Good points :
Allow bowlers to come back after a bad start.
Match-plays will add more pressure and players will
have to manage that.
Getting closer to the biggest events by adding more
games over 2 days of competition.

Bad points :
Bowlers will get tired and maybe injured faster.
