Pre-Bowling Rules
If a member is aware that he/she will be away for a scheduled shift, he/she may "pre-bowl" for that night.
Pre-bowled nights count toward perfect attendance awards that are given at the end of the season.
Pre-bowling shall be limited to a maximum of 8 weeks of the season, and may include up to three consecutive weeks. Exceptions to this rule may be approved by the GBL officers for valid reasons.
An entire team may pre-bowl for any given scheduled shift, however, as a courtesy, the opposing team should be informed about it, either through its Team Captain, or a GBL Officer.
A computer printout should accompany the score sheet.
GBL Officers shall decide any protests regarding pre-bowling.
When filling out the score sheet for pre-bowling, the following information must be included in order for the scores to be accepted:
League--GALA
Date--Date pre-bowling for
Lane--Fill in lanes being bowled on
Team--Fill in team name.
Be sure to sign the score sheet when you have completed pre-bowling.
A copy of the score sheet should be kept and given to a member of your team who will be at the EPL for the shift in question. If the entire team will not be attending, please get a copy to a GBL Officer.
Bowlers should not pay EPL for pre-bowling, but should pay for the bowling shift(s) missed the next time they attend a regular Sunday night bowling shift.
