The top five one-handed and two-handed players earned their spot based on individual points throughout the PBA World Series of Bowling XVI.

Tournament Details

The one-handed and two-handed teams square off in a race-to-three Baker match. The Baker format, utilized in the PBA Elite League, places an emphasis on teamwork.

Rotating through the lineup, each player will bowl two frames per game. The anchor will bowl the fifth and 10th frames.

If the teams split the first four games, each team will select three players to each throw a single shot. The highest combined total will win; a one-ball roll-off will be used to break any ties.
