Registered
Volunteer Program |
|
USBC created
the Registered Volunteer Program (RVP) to assure parents that we
provide as safe an environment as possible for USBC youth. The program
ensures that any volunteers who work with USBC Youth are qualified to
do so, and gives proprietors, coaches and prospective volunteers alike
an opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to the safety of youth
bowlers by either registering in the program themselves or inviting
registered volunteers to take part in local USBC Youth
activities.

The USBC Open Championships (formerly the ABC Championships
Tournament) is one of the most historic sporting events in the world,
running longer, and visiting more venues, than most others.
In its history, the tournament has
traveled all over the United States, from north to south, from coast
to coast. Its historic, annual run interrupted only once - a three
year period during World War II. The following is a list of the cities
that have hosted the tournament.

The 2011 USBC Convention will be held at the Gaylord Texan hotel in
Grapevine, Texas.
June 29th through July 1st. The annual
USBC Convention is one of the longest-standing traditions in the sport
of bowling, with its roots dating back over 100 years to the
beginnings of the American Bowling Congress and the Women's
International Bowling Congress.
Each year, the convention brings
together everyone from USBC league members to executives on the USBC
board and delegates from state and local associations. This year the
USBC Convention and Annual Meeting will be held in conjunction with
the U.S. Women's Open at the Cowboy's Stadium, BPAA's Bowl Expo, and
the 2011 inductions into the National Bowling Hall of Fame and Museum
and much more. In addition to those great events will be educational
seminars and workshops, the annual "Meet for the Cure" and
Bowlers to Veterans Link celebrations, legislative sessions and
elections to the USBC Board of Directors.
Delegates, members and guests are
invited to attend any USBC and/or BPAA event however, you must
register to attend. Event registration will open by March 1, 2011.
|
The
USBC depends on its small army of volunteers who work mostly behind
the scenes, implementing services that make your bowling experience
fun, exciting and fair.
The United States Bowling Congress has a national network of about
35,000 USBC volunteers who manage more than 3,100 USBC local and state
associations across the country.

New bowling ball
specification will affect manufacturers, not bowlers
In April 2009, the USBC
Equipment Specifications and Certification team will begin enforcing a
new specification that limits the surface roughness-Ra of all bowling
balls certified for competition from that point forward.
