Thanks to new JBT sponsor Etonic, three additions have been made to the Junior Bowlers Tour program which will benefit our members. We thank Etonic for their interest in junior bowling and encourage everyone to click on the link above to visit their on-line store.
2007-08 ETONIC Bowler-of-the-Month
Each month of the season, a bowler will be named Etonic Bowler-of-the-Month (in each conference, in each division). Winners will be determined based on totals points earned in the conference during the month. Points that are earned in Invitational tournaments will not be doubled to determine Bowler-of-the-Month. In the event of a tie, the bowler with the highest average (including handicap in the handicap division) will be the winner. Bowlers may only win the award once during the season and all winners will be eligible for a special scholarship prize list at the JBT Challenge Tournament in August 2008.

Eighty-five bowlers earned Etonic Bowler-of-the-Month honors during the season, and these bowlers were eligible for the season-end roll-off at the JBT Challenge Tournament. The scores used to determine the winners were taken from three of the games rolled in the qualifying round of Sunday's competition.
Matt Gasn topped the scratch division with a 757 total and Nicole Meyers was high in the handicap division with 682. Each bowler earned a $200 scholarship. A total of $1200 in scholarships were awarded to twelve bowlers in this event.
The JBT would like to once again thank Etonic for their support in making this event possible.
Scholarship Bonus for Champions:
Those bowlers who win a JBT singles event while wearing a pair of Etonic bowling shoes (and the Etonic patch on their shirt which the JBT will supply) will earn an additional $50 scholarship, courtesy of Etonic. This is limited to two wins per bowler during the season and a maximum of 10 winners per season. In the event more than 10 bowlers earn this bonus, $500 in scholarships will be divided equally among all winners. The winners of the Etonic bonus so far have been:
DAVID KNIGHT JR. (2)
BILLY BITTENBENDER
SONJA SHIRAK
Additional Prizes forRaffle:
The JBT will be adding a pair of Etonic bowling shoes to our raffle at various events during the season, again thanks to Etonic's donation of the shoes. The additional raffle money generated will go into the prize fund for the Etonic Bowler-of-the-Month Roll-Off at the Challenge Tournament.
If you would like any information on any of these programs, feel free to contact a JBT tournament director.
