Dress Code

Shirts

Competitors shall provide their own bowling shirt with a collared, V-neck, rib-lined or banded neckline. Mock collars must be a minimum of three-quarters of one inch. All shirts must have finished sleeves for all competition. Females may wear a sleeveless shirt with a butterfly collar only if the sleeves are finished. T-shirts and unfinished collars are not permitted.

It is recommended that participants have their names on their shirts, but it is not required. If the participant has chosen to have a name on the back, it is recommended that the participant wears their last names (first and last name is recommended) in lettering a minimum of one-inch high, with a maximum height of three inches, on the back of shirts during all tournament play. Hand-printed lettering is not permitted.

Lettering should be in contrasting color to backing (light on dark, or dark on light material) so it can be easily read from a distance.

Pants

Male participants are required to wear slacks. Slacks must not contain drawstring waists or elastic bottoms. Slacks must have a zipper and a button to be eligible.

Female participants are required to wear slacks, skirts, capris, or skorts. All skirts, capris, or skorts must be below the competitor’s fingertips when they are standing with their arms hanging loosely at their side.

Jeans, yoga pants, shorts, and tights worn alone are not permitted.

Headgear/Electronics

No covering or sunglasses can be worn while practicing or competing (hats, caps or bandanas, etc.). Male participants cannot wear any headgear while practicing or competing, unless a request is made in writing and approved prior to the event for medical or religious reasons only.

Electronics are not permitted while bowling. Examples include, but are not limited to, cellular phones, tablets, and music listening devices (earphones, headphones, etc.). 

Tournament management will determine if the uniform worn by the participant is acceptable.
