hm, actually different alley got different leagues, with
differing scoring systems.
got 10-pt system, 20-pt system, round robin system, with trios, or
foursome format.
using the planet bowl tue trios league as an example, (20-pt
system, 4 games, trios)
player vs player (1st bowler vs 1st bowler, 2nd vs 2nd and so
on..)
each bowler can get maximum 5 pts, (4 from games, 1 from
overall)
therefore 3 bowlers maximum 15pts
Team game (team overall score for 1st game, 2nd game, and so
on...)
maximum 5 pts (4 from games, 1 from overall)
therefore this is a 20 pt system league...something like
that...
then got handicap for bowlers, generally, the more handicap a
bowler have, the 'lousier' he is... though some bowlers will
'cheat' on their handicap by lowering their scores when they play
against weaker opponents so that they can 'ta-rek' their
handicap...this is a common yet unprofessional practice, not
allowed in the 'Code of Conduct' in league...
