    Last season by the end of the season the top 3 averages were 219.65, 219.60, 219.38 so all under the handicap... The high ave from lasts year is the 2nd high currently.

    Not necessarily. Harder to maintain a 210+ average than say 170-180. A few opens or splits and you're done. Easier to squeeze out a 170 game than 210

    Team...team...team use team average from a set number higher than any team average.... Individual average won't matter.

    Right now with 220 basis we have about 10 guys over and 3 at 250, but over 1/2 the league at 200 plus out of 92 bowlers. We do need to implement a team cap to keep things competitive. I think only one team is 900 but they are close to 950. That's the team that started in the league 2 years ago and won both years. If we had a cap at 880 or you give back pins we would have 2 or 3 teams close, but would they just bag a little and keep it under ? That's the question.

    My Monday league from last year had the rule that if you were over the handicap individually that your team would lose handicap.

    The team H\C cap should always be higher than any team avg. Why would a league let one team load up and get such an advantage?

    So in this case with 100% of 220 and 4 man teams what is the appropriate team HC and penalty ? 880 and lose a pin for every pin over ?
    I'm not sure but I don't think any of the guys on the team get any pins, ie all are over 220.

    They just replaced their lowest avg bowler with a 250 avg bowler this year. Prior they had 2-220 -230 guys and 2-210 -220 guys
    and one other is bowling a little better ....
