On August 9, 1998, the association's board of directors voted to reinstitute a system that officially recognizes its high-average bowlers according to composite average. Such a system, which began in the 1966-1967 season, was last in effect in 1988-1989.

The above ranking was calculated using the following criteria:

The bowler must participate in at least three NCAUSBCA-certified leagues, with a minimum of 66 games in each league.
The bowler must have a qualifying average as defined above in at least two different bowling centers.
The bowler must have a total of at least 200 games in qualifying leagues as defined above.
The bowler must participate in all events (team, singles, and doubles) of the current bowling season's NCAUSBCA Open Championship Tournament.
All scores bowled in this tournament will be used in calculating the composite average.
Once qualified, a bowler's composite average will be calculated by totaling all pins in NCAUSBCA-certified leagues (21 games or more) and all pins from the NCAUSBCA Open Championship Tournament and dividing the total by the sum of all the games.

If you have any questions on the ranking system, please contact Ranking Committee Chairman Ronald McGregor.
