NEW RULES FOR BOWLING BALLS
Effective August 1, 2019 bowlers can no longer use liquids or add anything, including but not limited to rosin or powder, to the surface of the bowling ball. This rule change affects you and your bowling ball(s) during USBC league and tournament play. The USBC created a document to explain this rule change. The document can be found HERE. It will open in a new page.
Effective August 1, 2020 USBC rules will prohibit balance holes in a bowling ball. Beginning August 1, 2020 bowlers may have up to five holes for gripping purposes and all gripping holes must be used on every delivery. A bowler who chooses not to use a thumb hole would need to mark by scribe, engraver or tool their intended center of palm with a plus (+) mark to indicate their grip orientation.
