TN9 is a fun, inclusive, and LGBTQIA+ affirming bowling night, open to all bowlers and allies. This event serves as a fundraiser for BARBI 2026—helping us build toward a bigger and better Burgh Area Rainbow Bowling Invitational next year!

Eligibility
Bowlers must have a verified league average from the past 12 months (any type of league is acceptable).

Averages may be verified upon request. The tournament staff reserves the right to re-rate or disqualify bowlers whose averages cannot be verified or appear inconsistent.

Tournament Format
Three (3) games, bowled consecutively.
9-Pin No-Tap: Any first ball knocking down 9 or more pins counts as a strike.
Bowlers must start their first game no later than 7:30 PM.

Handicap
Handicap is 90% of 220, calculated as: (220–Bowler’s Average)×0.90
Handicap pins are added to the bowler’s scratch score across all three games.

Entry Fee
$20 per competitive bowler
Friends and non-competitive guests can bowl for just $15 (not eligible for cash prizes)

Payout & Prizes
The top 3 bowlers (based on total handicap series) will receive cash prizes, paid on-site.
