DC Bowling

Bowling isn’t just about the number of pins you knock down.

It’s about how many pins you knockdown when throwing a 12 pound ball backwards from the next lane over.

(And your awesome “I just got a strike” dance move).

Ready to become king pin?

Whether you’re a free agent looking for a team or a captain already in charge, come play with us. Leagues available in Maryland & Virginia.

Skill Levels, Team Sizes & Roster Management

Bowling Rules

Download + Print Rules

// PLAYER ELIGIBILITY

1. All Players must be at least 21 years of age and have current, adequate health insurance.

2. All players must be properly registered on a team during the season for which they are playing.

*If a player is registered on more than one team within the league, they may only play for one team in the playoffs.
*All players must agree to the Fray Liability Waiver as described in the Fray Terms and Conditions section of Player Registration.

3. Any use of an ineligible player will result in a forfeit.

// GOLDEN RULE

First and foremost, all Fray leagues are 50% Social and 50% Sport. While we have staff // officials, we expect individuals to respect the league’s culture of fair and fun play. Foul language and rough play will not be tolerated. Individuals who cannot adhere to our standards of fair play and sportsmanship may be asked to leave the league. We want everyone to have fun and be social while enjoying a great sport. We will do whatever we can to make sure all players are having fun!

// GENERAL POLICIES

Fray is proud to relieve captains of the burden of paying for full teams. We accept individual player payments and allow prepayment for additional players and/or full teams. We are also proud to welcome those who do not have a full team (small groups and free agents) to participate in our league.
Because our mission is to make fun possible, these policies make it easier for people to get involved with and build community through social sports.

All registrations are on a first come, first serve basis. Any roster that does not reach our official size (based on each sport) is eligible to receive free agents and/or small groups. Rosters made up of primarily free agents and/or a collection of small groups may have more players than the standard roster size. This policy is in place to help ensure free agent teams are able to consistently field a team each week.

// Roster Size Chart

Sport	Promotion Size	Official Size	Max Roster Size	Female Minimum
Bowling	4	5	6	N/A

// Teams & Substitutions

1. A maximum of 6 players can bowl on a lane at a time. Teams must have the required minimum 4 players to start the game

*Each player present must participate in at least one game. If a bowler comes late, they may join in for the current game or wait and join in the next one.

2. Bowlers on the roster who are not present for league night must be skipped on the bowling console. Substitutes may not bowl for missing teammates, and a player may not bowl under two names.

*If a “substitute” was bowling for a missing bowler, or a teammate was bowling under multiple names, the team may be required to forfeit that game or take a zero as one of the counted team scores at the league host’s discretion.

3. Substitute players (players not on the roster) may be used at any time in the regular season. Substitutes are not permitted during playoffs.

*All substitutes must be a registered player on another team and/or in another Fray league that is currently in play.
*Teams may use additional substitute players above the player minimum with the opposing team’s consent. Teams who agree to play under these conditions must notify the Host before the start of the game and the outcome of the game will stand as is.

4. Teams have until 10 minutes past the designated start time to field the minimum number of players. The 10 minute grace period is considered part of the overall game time. If a team is unable to reach the minimum number of players, the game will be deemed a forfeit.

5. Teams may play a “legal game” with less than the required minimum number of players with the opposing team’s consent. Teams who agree to play under these conditions will lose the option of receiving a forfeit win and the outcome of the game will stand as is. Team’s must notify the Host before the start of the game.

6. Teams must designate a captain prior to the start of the game. Team captains are responsible for signing and submitting scorecards each night.

// Game Duration

1. Each team has between 90-120 minutes to bowl as many games as they can, typically 1-3 games. Game times may vary based on a specific location.

*If your bowling is shut off before you finish your current game, existing scores may count as of the final ball rolled. Example: if you bowl your first frame as a strike, you cannot assume you will bowl an additional strike and you will be simply awarded 10 for the actual ball bowled.
*In the event of a significant lane malfunction that costs 5 minutes or more, teams may request additional time at the discretion of the facility.

3. Regular Season Games can end in ties. Playoff games will continue until a winner is decided.

// Scoring & Timing

1. Team Score: The sum of the top 4 scores from ONE game that you choose to submit. You may NOT mix-and-match scores from multiple games.

*Teams may only reset their scores once and it must be during the first 15 minutes of play (unless there has been a scoring malfunction which requires a reset). This is to prevent teams from resetting their scores until they get the best scores possible.

2. Team captains are required to report their scores to the league host THAT NIGHT! Your scorecard must be signed by the opposing captain for verification.

*Scores not reported may be counted as 0.
*If scores are found to be altered, that game will result in a forfeit. If this continues to happen, there may be further action taken including removal from the league without refund.

// Equipment, Uniforms & Facility Use

1. All equipment will be provided on site! Make sure to give yourself enough time to get bowling shoes and your favorite bowling ball before the start of your game.

2. Players should make every effort to wear the official Fray division shirt.

3. If an individual or team violates the facility’s Code of Conduct, they may be asked to leave and a refund will not be issued.

// Playoffs & Standings

1. Playoffs are determined after the regular season has concluded and are based on scheduling and other league logistics. Playoffs are not guaranteed.

2. Teams will be seeded for playoffs based on standings and their game will be against the team seeded closest from 1 vs 2 on down. While only the top 2 seeded teams are competing for the championship, all teams will be scheduled for playoff games.

3. Standings are sorted based on teams’ Win-Loss-Tie record. If there is a tie in the standings, we sort based on the following information in order until the tie is resolved:

*Head-to-head matchups
*Score differential
*Points For
*Points Against

// Forfeits

1. Teams have until 10 minutes past the designated start time to field the minimum number of players. If the are unable to do so, the game will be deemed a forfeit.

*First Forfeit – Loss of game and warning issued
*Second Forfeit – Loss of game and Fray reserves the right to remove team the playoffs.
*Third Forfeit – Loss of game and removal from the league with no refund

2. In the case of a forfeit, the final score is recorded as 400-0.

// Weather Cancellations

1. One week is built into the end of each season

2. All players will be notified via email if games are canceled

3. If more than one weather cancellation occurs, Fray will try to find another week if possible to make up the games, but it is not guaranteed.

4. Should inclement weather or other factors limit normal scheduled game duration and at least one full game has been completed, the game shall count as the full game and scores will be reported as is.

I have a group of friends who want to play. How can we make sure we’re on the same team?

Your ringleader simply forms a new group during the registration process. Once they’re registered, everyone then registers under that group / team. Easy Peasy! Doesn’t matter how small your group is, we’ll keep your buddies together when we merge and finalize teams after registration is closed. Start telling your buddies to sign up now!

*DC Fray reserves the right to put independent players on your group / team. Please check out our Roster Table to see average team size for leagues*

What if I don’t know anyone in DC Fray? Can I still play?

Absolutely! A large majority of DC Fray players sign up as independents or in smaller groups. Once registration for a division is closed, we merge all free agents and small groups into bigger teams, as space is available.

How do rainouts and game cancellations work?

We make the final call a few hours before the games the day of, but for the most part, we usually play through a light drizzle. At permitted locations that call to cancel is made by the operating DPR. We usually build one or more weeks of make up days in case of weather. If a league has multiple cancellations game MAY NOT be able to be made up. Call the Weather Hotline to check the status of your games: 202-290-1969 option 1.

Category: General

← How do rainouts and game cancellations work?

What is your refund policy?

DC Fray has a no refund policy. Often our rosters have limited space and last minute cancellations hinder our ability to properly plan and organize the season and our leagues as well as the costs that have already been incurred by the league.

If you are unable to participate after completing the registration process we are able to transfer your registration to a future season!

← What is your refund policy?

How do I join?

To register select your desired day and location. Make sure to read through the season info before signing up (dates,location,etc). Click through the links and you will be guided through the process. If you have any questions email us at [email protected]

Is your payment processor secure?

Absolutely! We use commish and Stripe as our processor. Simply follow the prompts at the end of your registration to pay with your debit or credit card.

Category: General

← Is your payment processor secure?

Can I pay for my friend(s)?

If you would like to prepay for other players or for an entire team you have the option to do so when registering! Once you are on commish and at the option to “Choose Your Destiny” there will be an option to Prepay for Others. Simply enter the number of additional people you are paying for, create a prepaid code and your total cost should update next to the box. Provide your created prepaid code to your players to use when they go to register for the season to mark their registration as paid.

Some of our divisions now offer an option to prepay for a full team! When you are creating a team/group you can select to “Prepay for a Team” just under the prepay for others option. The total for payment should be reflected on the right-hand side of the screen. Complete the rest of the registration prompts and proceed to the payment screen. When you pay for a full team you are paying for a team spot in the league and a specific number of roster spots. Your teammates still need to register for the season and apply your prepaid code! If you would like additional players you can add additional roster spots at time of checkout or after the purchase.

If you have a corporate company team or want to bring a very large group of rotating players, please email [email protected] to talk about corporate programs!

Are there team rates? Does everyone need to register for the league?

Yes, we do offer the option to pay as a team. Since our registration is individually based the team rate is based on our Roster Table for an official roster size X the registration cost. For steps on how to pay for a team during the registration process please check the FAQ above.

Every player must be a registered member on the roster. We do not allow subs/walk-ups/whomever to play with us without being a registered DC Fray player. Certain leagues CAN use subs as long as that person is registered in the same division.

*Corporate,Veteran or other groups please email [email protected] to find out about possible groups rates.*
