Never in our long and storied history has there been an absolute tie between two teams. While Captain June Weaver has once again led her Rollverines to a first place undefeated 5-0 regular season (she did the same thing in 2019 with Chewbocce) and Captain Pete’s 3-2 Mission Imbocceballs are securely in second place, we have three teams with a 2-3 record. This is when the all-important TPS (total points scored) come into play. The Cannolis and the Posse are tied at exactly 45 TPS and share third place, while Balls Out with just 35 TPS necessarily falls into fifth place and will face off against the Roll Models for the Wooden Spoon at our Playoffs.

Friday, August 28, the Playoffs will begin with a Roll-Off between our third place teams to determine who remains in third and will play against the Mission and who gets fourth place and must play the Rollverines. The winners of these two matches will then play each other in our Championship Round September 11.

A Roll-Off is conducted like a regular game but with only one frame from each end. The four players at the north end each roll and the score is counted, the south end then rolls and the score is counted. The team with the most points wins. If it is a tie, the process is repeated until one team wins.

The schedule will be:

• 6:00 Cocktails and appetizers
• 6:15 Roll-Off
• 6:30 Balls Out play Roll Models for Wooden Spoon
• 7:15 Mission Imbocceballs play 3rd Place- Winner to Championship
• 8:00 Rollverines play 4th Place- Winner to Championship
