Examples for Bowling League Handicap Methods, using either the Team or Individual Handicap Procedures.
The Handicap Basis and Percentage are determined by each league, aiming to exceed the highest averages in the league.
NOTE: The calculations used to determine the handicaps are added for clearness (they are not usually on the sheets.)
In the calculations, any fractional decimal portions are to be disregarded.
The sample league has 4 members per team and bowls 3 games for each league session.

The league records for each individual would also have indicated their own handicapped scores.
Example: Lucy L's records for scratch 206, would also show her handicapped total of (206+33)=239.
Her scratch series 571, would also have a handicapped total of (571+3x33)=670.
