USBC now makes it easier than ever for associations to process information about their Adult bowlers through WinLABS, a free computer software application created by USBC. The program provides automated solutions for certifying Adult leagues, members, bowler achievements and tournaments, using the Internet for paperless processing of:
- Certified leagues
- Awards and Award Inventory Reports
- Seasonal Average Books
- Tournament Information
- Dues Accounting
- Association and Center Information
- Association Officer, Director and Member Data
WinLABS transmits association data to USBC Headquarters electronically. A National Bowler Database receives the league and member information and the association's account is electronically debited for appropriate dues.
If you're a newly hired Association Manager, get started by contacting the WinLABS Support team via e-mail at labshelp@bowl.com or phone at (800) 514-BOWL, ext. 3431.
