LEAGUE BOWLING IS BACK!

MAKE SURE YOUR LEAGUES ARE FAIR AND SUCCESSFUL WITH THIS VITAL – AND FREE – BOWLING LEAGUE SOFTWARE

How prevalent are unfair bowling leagues?

Unfair handicap leagues are depressingly common. The folks who set up bowling leagues have never had a tool to measure a league’s fairness or to determine a league’s best handicap formula – the optimal values to give a deserved advantage to better teams while assuring that any team that does well compared to its established skill level can be genuinely competitive. That has always been the promise of handicap league bowling – a promise that far too often has been a lie.

How is a league’s fairness determined?

Bowling League Tuneup analyzes leagues mathematically, taking every bowler and league attribute into account, to determine teams’ chances of success. Shown below is Bowling League Tuneup’s preseason analysis of the Monday Night Bowlers handicap league. One of the four best teams can be expected to finish in first place in over two of every three seasons this league might bowl together. Meanwhile, the three poorest teams can each be expected to finish first just once out of every thousand seasons. Few people would consider that this league has attained the goal of fairness that handicap leagues were created to achieve.

How are bowler performances assessed?

When Bowling League Tuneup is used to record bowler scores during the season, in-season league analyses can help explain actual league results and uncover problems in the league’s configuration. In addition, a performance sheet is automatically produced for each league bowler. Each sheet lists all games bowled, provides statistics for each week and the full season, and includes graphs which show the bowler’s season at a glance.
