A new squad is added for the 2025 October Senior Team Classic!
Most squads are now filled, and the others should fill shortly so we are adding Squad G for Team, Doubles & Singles at 5 pm each evening on Sunday, Monday & Tuesday, October 5, 6 & 7.
30 lanes will be available to accommodate 30 more teams.
30 lanes are still plenty of lanes for Sweepers and NoTapsbut they are limited to 8 to a pair. If you are bowling in a Team, Doubles or Singles squad at 5pm, you can enter the Sweepers and use the same scores. You have to pay the Sweeper entry fee. Unfortunately, those 5pm bowlers can’t enter the No Taps.
Whoops! There was an error in the original brochure sent out last week but it is fixed now in the October brochure. The years that we are accepting averages were a year off but the proper years are now available to view. Here are the corrected rules:
- Accepted Averages – Players use their highest USBC winter average, of at least 21 games from 2023/24 or 2024/25.
- Players may request to use a summer average if no winter average with minimum 21 games.
- Players without a league average in the past 2 seasons may request to use an average from 2021/22 or 2022/23 with a 10-pin penalty for each year.
Email your team reservations to info@high-roller.com and please include a phone number.

Announcing the 2025 August Military Team Classic Brochure!
We are very excited to announce that reservations are being accepted! Click on this link for the 2025 August Military Team Classic brochure! We hope you will join us this year!
To reserve your team spots, email wendymacpherson@high-roller.com. Make sure to include your telephone number and alternate squad choices.
Click here for the online entry application.
Due to the large participation of Squad Organizers, we added an additional evening squad to accommodate more teams. Even with these three 9PM squads, we are projecting that the tournament will still fill in several days. Last year was filled and a Stand By list was started in December.
For that reason, don’t delay in reserving your squad choices!
GOOD TO KNOW – Squad Organizers produce approx.80% of the total number of teams each year so many squads fill immediately. This year we restricted the number of teams that the Squad Organizers could reserve so there would be more team spots remaining.
Email wendymacpherson@high-roller.com to reserve your squad choice. Include some alternate choices as many squads will be filled quickly. We will reply to your email with your squad confirmation within several days. Your email will reach us quicker than a phone call as all of our lines will be tied up and leaving a phone message is not a reservation. Please include a contact phone number so we can reach you with questions.
And as always, first-come-first-served!
Because we are anticipating a stand-by list for filled squads, all reservations will need to have their team applications and entry fees submitted by April 1. At that point we will be able to accommodate teams that are waiting for a spot.
GREAT FEATURES THIS YEAR!

The August Military Team Classic is almost here! We’re just days away and we are very excited to welcome everyone to South Point! Here are a few items that will be helpful and make your trip more enjoyable. GREAT NEWS! If you have bowled with us before, you know that the check-in lines in the Plaza can be very long prior to your first event. That is where you get your lane assignments, submit required personal information and enter Optional Events.
But starting on August 1, you can view and print your confirmation, schedule and lane assignments online on the Your Personal Schedule & Confirmation Page. Click on the August logo and type in your name, it’s that easy!Your confirmation/schedule is actually available now but lane assignments and your entering average won’t be available until August 1. It’s a good idea to view your confirmation now and check to see if lineups and Doubles partners are correct and if your Optional Events are listed.
CAN YOU AVOID THE LINES?Bowlers that need to submit personal info should still check-in at the Plaza before they bowl their first event.If you want to enter optional bowling events that take place in the Bowling Center, you can do that also at the check-in windows or do it online with a credit card and skip the check-in lines! Optional bowling events for that same day need to be purchased in the Bowling Center, not the Plaza.Optional Sidepots and Mystery Score must be entered before you bowl your first event.
Things to know….DRESS CODE! The dress code is casual as shorts, hats and t-shirts are allowed as long as they are considered respectful towards the other bowlers, sponsors & guests!WE HEAR YOU!

Don’t forget!! Fees for Optional Programs increase as of July 1st. Click here for the online application and save $$$!
Navy Federal Credit Union “Trios”!
As we welcome Navy Federal Credit Union as a sponsor, this 3-game handicap fun and competitive event will be added to the festivities this coming August as any 3 contestants can form a “trio” and compete for a large purse!
No average max – form a team with any 3 bowlers who are entered in the August Military Team Classic!
Just like the Mixed Doubles, this new event will run for the entire tournament with 14 squads and an estimated $30,000 purse with a guaranteed $6,000 1st place!
It features a $120 entry fee per team. There are unlimited entries allowed but a same team can only finish once in the top 3. Change a bowler and create a new Trio! Bowl with teammates or friends from other teams.
The entry fee does not increase for this new event so enter now or on site and see what your Trio can do!
The NFCU “Trios” will run during the same squads as the Military Only Sweeper. Expect limited lanes with Military-Only getting preference.
New rules for the Military-Only and Ladies-Only Sweepers
Although these 2 Sweepers tend to be the smallest of the 3-game handicap Sweepers, we want to continue them as many bowlers look forward to them. But we also feel there should be a larger “pay day” for their efforts. So effective with this year’s tournament, both of these Sweepers will run for the entire tournament. So instead of the smaller daily prize funds, you can bet that the purse will increase greatly and create more prizes!
The cashing rule is the same for daily and long running Optional Programs: Unlimited entries are allowed but cash only once in the top 3.
Welcome back to our Presenting Sponsor with these 2 great balls for contestants! Summit Peak & Absolute Power

BRIGHAM CITY, Utah – It is with heavy hearts that we announce the passing of Bill Chrisman, the esteemed co-founder and CEO of Storm Bowling. With profound grief, we bid farewell to a visionary leader who dedicated his life to revolutionizing the sport of bowling.
Bill’s passion for bowling was unmatched. Under his guidance, Storm Bowling soared to new heights, becoming a global leader in the industry. His relentless pursuit of excellence and commitment to innovation forever transformed the game we all love.
Beyond his professional achievements, Bill will be remembered for his kind and compassionate nature. He touched the lives of countless individuals, inspiring and empowering them to pursue their dreams in the world of bowling.
Bill’s legacy will continue to live on through the countless bowlers he mentored and the lasting impact he made on the sport. His unwavering dedication and unwavering spirit will forever be cherished by the bowling community.
During this difficult time, our thoughts and prayers go out to Bill’s family, friends, and colleagues. May they find solace in the memories they shared and the legacy he leaves behind.
Rest in peace, dear Bill Chrisman. Your passion for bowling will continue to inspire generations to come. You will be deeply missed, but never forgotten.
