| Baker
System
Several times during the season, the bowling teams participate in
position rounds. These rounds follow the Baker system format. |
| The
Baker system is used in many events and tournaments. Each member of
a five-person team rolls two frames to comprise a normal 10-frame
game. The leadoff bowler rolls in the first and sixth frames; the
second bowler throws the second and seventh frames, and so on. |
| This
format emphasizes the team concept. During Indiana high school meets
using the Baker format, teams roll 10 games worth two points each
to equal 20 points that are accumulated in a normal regular season
match. |
| If
both teams win five games (ten points), then the tiebreaker is total
pins in the match. This style of scoring promotes the team concept
even more. |
