Bowling

To compete at the National Senior Games, you must meet the following criteria at a State Senior Games the year before the National Senior Games:

• Place in the top four in your specific event and age group. You must qualify separately for singles, doubles and mixed doubles. Doubles partners who qualify together are not required to play together at the 2027 National Senior Games. For full doubles qualification details, please refer to Rule E, “DOUBLES PARTNERS” under “SPORT RULES, REGULATIONS & FORMAT” in the Rulebook.
• Team bowling exception: Any bowler who has already qualified in singles, doubles or mixed doubles is automatically eligible to join a four-person team; you do not need to qualify for the team event separately.
• Team age rule: For doubles, mixed doubles and team play, your age group is determined by the youngest member of the group.

For all the details, check the full National Senior Games Rulebook.
