Bowling

Competition format

A team consists of 4 players; women are given 5 pins a game of handicap. If a team is missing a player or a player must leave the game due to injury, 125 pins per match are entered in the scorecard. An absent player may be substituted; however, the substitute may not belong to a different team. All games are played in accordance with the European style (no switching of lanes). Each team plays 3 games per round (preliminary and intermediary round). The rules of the International Bowling Federation (IBF) apply.

Competition rules

The groups are ranked according to their respective total number of pins scored in the 6 games. The first-,second- and third-placed teams in the groups (48 teams) then play one game first (pins score) on the final day (Saturday) in Group A, group B or group C. After that, the 8 best teams in each group play in the quarterfinals, then the 4 best teams compete in the semifinals, and subsequently the 2 best teams play in the finals (pins score in one game of each). Teams are asked to report to the tournament director at least 30 minutes before starting time. For the ECSG oil pattern Main Street 41ft is allowed.

Scoring

Teams are ranked within their groups according to their total number of pins. In case of a tie in the number of total pins between two or more teams, the tie is broken by the team with the highest game.
