The California Youth Scratch Championships (formerly the Pepsi Youth Championships) is a multi-level nationwide qualifying championship event for USBC certified youth bowlers. This tournament is a benefit of USBC membership — every youth bowler should be given their chance to enter. California has awarded over $1,000,000 since 1998 (Coca-Cola Youth Championships / Pepsi Youth Championships).

Over $1 million dollars awarded in Scholarships since 1998 for this tournament!

If California bowling centers are not open by February 1, 2021, this event will be cancelled due to the COVID-19 mandated shutdown.

The California USBC Association Board of Directors voted to cancel the 2020 Pepsi Youth Championships due to the COVID19 Health Order.  All Pepsi entry fees have been refunded.  This is an unfortunate situation as we know that this is the last year of youth eligibility for some bowlers and we know they were looking forward to competing.  Be safe out there!
