Ours have been posted here for about a month. Other centers in my area have also had theirs posted for a while.
Most centers here are just as bad.
If you look at it from their point of view, they don't often know which teams and which leagues are coming back. They try to guage it before sweeps by passing around papers asking who is returning...but most of us know bowlers that are "undecided" right up till the last minute.
It's also complicated, as classygranny mentioned, in that leagues have varying start/finish times. Most leagues around here are Vegas sweeper leagues...and most of the ones I've participated in have nearly the same length seasons in winter and summer. March to September (fall/winter) and September to March (summer). However, some leagues have the more traditional format where fall/winter is a longer season (Sept. to May) and summer season is either skipped or a shortened season like June to September.
I've given up on the league flyers at the center I most often bowl at...because, despite letting them know, the league President know, etc......they still haven't listed their big Monday league on the flyer. Each time, they say, "oh...wow...I can't believe it's not on there."...and each flyer then leaves it off. I go to the website...look at the league sheets...figure out what league(s) I want to join...then figure out when those leagues start/finish. The website is updated every week...rather than the flyers which are updated twice a year.

Smokey this is not 'Nam', this is bowling. There are rules. Proud two-time winner of a bowlingboards.com weekly ball give-away!
One of the locals just posted the schedule on facebook. Looks like they're starting the end of may / start of june.
The other two seem to keep it a secret or something.
Our center put out the summer leagues schedules a
few weeks ago.
