Online Entry

This Online Entry Portal can be used to register for the Times-News Open (TNO) or the Times-News Doubles (TND) or both. Additionally, since both these events are sanctioned by the USBC you are required to be sanctioned to participate. If you are not sanctioned through the NWPA USBC you will be required to do so. There are options below to pay the selected sanction (you will be required to complete a card onsite).

Please note that your paid entry only provides you with a spot on the selected squad if that squad is indeed open at the time of your entry. This is because other entries may have been submitted on this online portal before yours. If you sign up for a closed squad you will be placed on an open squad, if available, as well as being placed on the waiting list of the selected squad. If all squads are full, you will be placed on the waiting list of your selected squad.

Please make sure to complete all items. You will be provided with a summary of your choices prior to being directed to PayPal to remit the appropriate payment.

Please note: If you do not make a payment with your entry you must make other arrangements to secure your entry as noted at the bottom of the entry form. If you choose to pay the day of the tournament, if the event fills you risk the possibility that your spot may be given to another bowler who has paid. It is always best to make a payment prior to the day of the event to avoid this possibility. If you do choose to pay the day of the event, please arrive at the lanes at least 90 minutes prior to the squad’s scheduled starting time to ensure your spot is not given to someone else.
