Total pinfalls of the 4 bowlers (including Handicap) will determine the top 3 Quartet Teams.
2. Step- Ladder Finals (28th Feb 2002 – PM)
The total pinfalls of all the 3 events (including Handicap) will determine the top 5 bowlers to qualify for the Step-Ladder Finals.
Match 1: 5th in position will play with 4th position over 1 game. Winner will proceed on.

* In the event that the Match 3 Winner wins Match 4, another game will be played and the winner will be declared the Champion.
Each match will be played on a different lane. The bowler that is being challenged, i.e., in Match 1, 4th position will have the right to decide who goes first. The lead-off bowler will bowl a frame first and subsequently, 2 frames will be bowled, ending the game with the lead-off bowler playing the last frame. Ladies Handicap will be added to their scratch score in the Step-Ladder Finals.
3. Tie- Breaking
In the case of a tie for any events, or for Step-Ladder qualifying pinfalls, the bowler with the highest high game shall win the tiebreaker. Ladies Handicap will be added in all the events except the Singles Event. If this still ends in a tie, the next high game will be used and so forth until the tie is broken. In the event of a tie in the Step-Ladder Finals, the 9th and 10th frame will be played again and repeated until the tie is broken.
4. Bowling on the Wrong Lane
When a bowler has bowled on the wrong lane and the error is discovered before another bowler has bowled, a dead ball is declared and the bowler will be required to rebowl that frame on the correct lane. When a bowler has bowled on the wrong lane and the next bowler has bowled without discovering the error, the game shall be completed with bowlers bowling on correct lanes without adjustments.
In the Step-Ladder Finals where the bowler normally bowls 2 frames each time and the bowler bowls on the wrong lane, a dead ball shall be declared and the bowler is required to rebowl both frames on the correct lane provided the error is discovered prior to the opponent making a legal delivery.
5. Tardy Bowlers
In the event of tardy bowlers (late-comers) in any event, he/she is permitted to join in the game if the other bowlers in the lane have no started bowling the 4th frame and can bowl the previous frames. However, if the other bowlers in the lane have started on the 4th frame, the late-comer cannot bowl the game and a blind score of 120 will be given for that game.
6. LadiesÂ’ Handicap
The LadiesÂ’ Handicap shall be calculated as follows:
(180 – 6 games’ average in Singles Event) divided by 2
The maximum handicap allowed for ladies is 25. This Handicap will be added into the total pinfalls in the doubles, quartet, top 5 qualifiers for Step-Ladder Finals and the total pinfalls of the Step-Ladder Finals as well.

Congrats to jae for clinching 4th place in the singles event, well done ah, we never thought you could do it, we thought you sucked big time, cannot perform another match play...but you proved us wrong For goodness sake, work on your spare game will ya...
Bernard and Bek played spectacularly as double partners to emerge 2nd, have you guys considered becoming life partners (like in The Amazing Race), with that chemistry going on... naah that would be wrong, bernard has to account to his neighbour at geylang beach.
Thanks to all for participating!
Like we always say: "We'll show them...next year." -
Congrats again Jae, Bernard & Bek!
Called Jae yesterday but he's driving so his wife answered. I was so happy that he got 4th and doubles 2nd. So glad...

In the ladies' singles event, the high game award for 188 pinfalls is shared between 3 bowlers, and one of them is lilian!! $10 divided by 3, so each one gets $3.33333....
Yvonne won the ladies' single event with 903 pinfalls, by one pin!
I scored 912 pinfalls, which brings my 6-game average to 152. Contended coz that IS my average. But i'm placed 25th out of 27 male bowlers. That answer your question Ding? -
Dude, don't complain about your placing of 25th. You're not qualified! sucker
Oh well, Live and let live.
