PTQ Entries

PTQ Entries open November 20, 2024. PTQ entries close January 6, 2025 at 11:59 p.m. CT. All PBA members who are not currently classified as priority entrants will need to enter the PTQ. A minimum of four (4) PTQ bowlers will advance to the elite field in order to fill the field.

If there are more than five (5) Champions entering the event AND the center has available lanes, we will expand the field in groups of 4 to accommodate. In the event that there are remaining roster openings after Champions are added, those spots will be awarded to the PTQ.

If there are fewer than the five (5) Champion spots claimed, those positions will be awarded to the PTQ

Anyone needing instructions on how to enter online can contact membership services at (206) 332-9688.

Eligibility

Participant must be a Full PBA member to enter unless they are a collegiate bowler currently on a team roster. College players can enter any PBA Tour PTQ event, with the exception of the PBA Tournament of Champions, after entries close for PBA members and they have created their PBA account online. To enter, email Tony Lanning at [email protected].

Entry Fee

PBA Delaware Classic PTQ: $250 (bowlers advancing from the PTQ will be charged an additional $250)
