What is PWBA?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

PWBA stands for Professional Women’s Bowling Association and is the governing body holding events and tournaments for women bowlers in the United States. The PWBA has been operating for over 50 years and has seen many changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 1974, some members of the PWBA left the organization and formed their own LPBA or Ladies’ Professional Bowlers Association. The two organizations merged once again only after four years, and this time named it WPBA, which was dissolved in 1981. In 2003, WIBC acquired the rights of the PWBA, but in 2005, the USBC acquired PWBA and all its rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) now conducts PWBA Regional events, which only allow women members to participate. The PWBA Tour consists of eight events, and the members compete for points and prize money at these events. Unfortunately, women have not had much success in PBA events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To bowl on the PWBA tour, you must be a member of the PWBA. You can become a member by demonstrating your bowling skills, applying for membership, and paying an annual membership fee. Tour membership entitles you to bowl in all PWBA-sanctioned events and earn points and prize money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

How to Join PWBA?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To join the PWBA, bowlers must meet certain eligibility criteria. These requirements include being at least 18 years of age and having a USBC membership. Bowlers must also have competed in at least six PWBA-sanctioned events in the past three years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The player must demonstrate a bowling average of 190 or higher in any USBC-certified league before applying for the PWBA. Women from other countries can also apply if they meet the above criteria. However, they would be required to show proof of their bowling average in order to be eligible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Once you have met the eligibility requirements, you can begin the membership process by filling out an application and paying the membership fee. Once your application has been approved, you will be officially a member of the PWBA and will be able to compete in PWBA events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
