A Note from Mike Larson, Regional Manager, USBC:

During the discussion at the Jamboree presentation last week, the topic of suspension of a member for non-payment of honor score rings was brought up. I just wanted to provide some clarification since there were quite a few in the room giving explanations of what we believe to be the case, myself included.

  • If a bowler shoots an honor score and indicates he/she would like to purchase an upgrade, but never pays for any of it, charges are not brought against their membership. They are eligible to receive the standard award if they then choose not to purchase the upgrade.
  • If a bowler shoots an honor score, indicates he/she would like to purchase an upgrade, pays the down payment, receives the ring, and then does not pay the remaining balance, then charges for membership suspension can be brought upon them. They have agreed upon a payment plan with Keepsake and have then not fulfilled their agreement based upon the contract they signed.
  • In regards to Keepsake contacting the bowlers for payment, our contract with them says they will call the bowler 3 times and then after the call attempts they will mail a postcard to whomever the award is to be shipped to, so either the member or the local association.
