New Bowling Tournament

Bowling Big Brother Starts next week May 26th.

This is a unique tournament in that the longer you play, the more chance you have to win, but the more you pay.

Average cost of entry to this tournament will be $6 (over 5 weeks)

It starts off with all entering bowlers paying a $2 entry fee for the first week. The 2 bowlers with the lowest score will be evicted (knocked out of the tournament). From then on in it will be $1 a week for the remaining bowlers to stay in the competition.

The prize will be 50% of entry fees with the other 50% going towards the prize fund.
Based on 20 players, this bowling tournament would run for a maximum of 10 weeks, with a maximum cost to the bowler being $11. ( the 2 finalists will have paid $11 over 10 weeks but 1 of them will walk away with a $54 profit.)

The prize money based on only 20 bowlers will be $65. As in the tv show big brother, there can be only 1 winner.

In the event of more than 20 bowlers, to keep the tournament down to 10 weeks, we will have triple evictions some weeks and doubles on others. We will announce a triple at the start of the night, if not, assume its a double. The first week will be a double eviction. Triple evictions will be later in the tournament as the later we do it, the longer people stay in, and the more money goes to the prize fund. We run these fund raiser tournaments to keep it fun but also to put some “fun money” into the kitty for presentation night. (All money raised from any tournament goes back into the league except for the station masters which puts all money back into the tournaments prize payouts).

Rules are simple.
Lowest 2 / 3 bowlers of the week including their handicaps will be eliminated.
Failure to Attend or prebowl is an instant eviction.
Failure to pay on a week will also result in an eviction.
Any bowler may pull out at any time, this will reduce the evictions for the week.

Please read this carefully and direct any questions to Jason De Kruif
Jason D reserves the right to change the rules to keep them fair if necessary.
Jason D also reserves the right to change the rules to make it a bit more fun. Example, highest scoring bowler from previous week, may be given immunity and not be evicted the following week. Should a bowler with immunity fall into eviction the following week, The 3rd or 4th lowest bowler would take their place and be evicted. This is just an example, but if we change 1 rule, others might need changing also, but we would hope these little changes make the game a little more interesting and fun for the participants, which is what its all about.
If any immunities are given etc, you will still be required to pay your weekly $1

Any rule change will be in the interest of fun or fairness.

Will you make it all the way to the end??

(The big brother tournament will run from week 23 to week 32, leaving Jason D with a few weeks break before the one and only, non fund raising, full on serious, high prize money 10 week tournament, THE STATION MASTERS! The masters “usually” has payouts like, 1st $300 2nd $150 3rd $75 4th 5th & 6th also getting $25. This like all tournaments is dependant on participants.)
