Youth Bowling England are delighted to announce the 2021 YBE National Virtual High Series (VHS) Tournament!

Additional Tournament Resources:

This new tournament format has been designed to help us through the current COVID-19 situation.  From June 12th until the end of 2021, bowlers can enter their YBC three game scratch series score – bowled during a regular YBC session – into the National Virtual High Series Tournament.  If a YBC runs more than 3 games as part of their regular club meeting then the first 3 games will be the scoring games.

Bowlers can enter up-to six times.  At the end of the tournament period the bowler with the single highest series score within each YBE Average division will win.  Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd & 3rd place in each average division.

The YBC Secretary (or other licenced official) must sign and submit the results sheet to the YBC Tournament Manager (Briadn & Gill Parker on brigillparker@aol.com) for verification and inclusion in the tournament.

Regular posting of current results will be made on the YBE website (https://btba.org.uk/youth-bowling-england/) and by clicking the Youth Bowling England logo on the BTBA website homepage (http://btba.org.uk)
