OPTION 3 - Head to Head (split shift ) | All teams bowl regular night as usual • Teams competing with each other on the night’s schedule to bowl together on a traditional pair under traditional league format • Teams can bowl 1 frame at a time, or PBA/Match Play style (2 frames at a time) to quicken the pace and keep bowlers crossing paths to a minimum • Half the Team match-ups bowl in the first shift at 7:00pm (usual time) with; • match 1 on lanes 1-2.... Lanes 3-4 are dark • match 2 on lanes 5-6.... Lanes 7-8 are dark • match 3 on lanes 9-10.... Lanes 11-12 are dark • match 4 on lanes 13-14 • The remaining team match-ups bowl in the second shift , with; • Lanes 1-2 are dark.... match 5 on lanes 3-4 • Lanes 5-6 are dark.... match 6 on lanes 7-8 • Lanes 9-10 are dark.... match 7 on lanes 11-12 • NOTE: This format will bring twice the number of bowlers onto a pair, so traditional timing for each shift can be assumed. This means you’ll need to ensure you have time for 2 full shifts and be aware that your bowlers may not like the later night when they are on second shift • For seating, let’s use match 1 for example, on lanes 1 and 2. Team A bowlers can sit on lane 1 seats and concourse behind their lane. Team B bowlers can sit on lane 3 seats (remember, 3 and 4 are dark) as well as in the concourse behind lane 3. In both cases, bowlers should be asked to keep themselves spread out to ensure 6’ distancing. Note, the team on lane 14 cannot sit on lane 15 if you don’t have a lane 15, so you may need to make adjustments • While switching out shifts; bowlers area, ball returns and near concourse tables / seats to be disinfected • Once disinfecting is done, teams on the second set of matches come in and begin their shift (if on the same night)
