BPL Cup

22 Apr 2019 by Vincent McILwain

What is the BPL Cup?
Over the past five years, Bowls Australia has successfully staged eight Bowls Premier League (BPL) events.

In 2014, Bowls Australia also launched a new national participation initiative, Jack Attack, which is played at over 200 venues.

The BPL Cup marries the two products together to strengthen the correlation between the bowls that viewers see on television and the format of bowls offered at Clubs.

The BPL Cup provides an opportunity for Club based teams to progress through various rounds to National Finals, to be played in parallel with the BPL10 competition (at Club Pine Rivers, Queensland) from November 12-15, 2019.

2019 BPL Cup
Play the fast-paced BPL format as seen on television …and win an expenses-paid trip to the BPL Cup National Finals, played at Queensland’s Club Pine Rivers.

The BPL Cup National Finals will be played alongside BPL10. Finalists will get to play on the TV rink and meet the stars of the BPL.

2019 BPL Cup Team Registrations
In 2019, it is expected that the BPL Cup will be bigger and better, with more host venues. A key change to the BPL Cup format will occur in 2019, with all Preliminary rounds to now be Sectional Play, to encourage more team entries.

Entry Fees & Prizes
The entry fee is $60 per team (of up to 4 players), collected at the time of entry. $10 per team entry will be paid to the host venues.
