Greater Cedar Valley USBC Bowling Association

09/01/2026

Welcome Back to all of our returning and new Greater Cedar Valley Bowling Association Members!!!! We wanted to clarify a few things regarding USBC Membership Cards.

THIS YEAR: If you have not done so already just a reminder that you can purchase/renew your annual memberships through your league or on bowl.com. USBC will mail out membership cards this year just as in past years.

CHANGES FOR NEXT YEAR (2027-28): you will still be able to purchase/renew your membership through your league or on bowl.com however, USBC will transition to digital membership cards and will not mail out the physical cards.

We hope everyone has a great bowling season!
