ARLINGTON, Texas – The deadline to submit applications for positions on the 2013-14 United States Bowling Congress Board of Directors and on the USBC Youth Committee is September 1, 2012.

“USBC is looking for dedicated leaders to represent our membership at the national level,” USBC President Andrew Cain said. “This is an exciting time for our organization and we hope to see a diverse group of applicants for these positions.”

Applications for the USBC Board of Directors will be reviewed by the Nominating Committee. The Nominating Committee will then recommend a slate of candidates to delegates ahead of the USBC Convention, scheduled for April 30-May 4, 2013, in Reno, Nev. For the 2013 election, the Nominating Committee will slate up to two candidates for each of the four positions open for election. Candidates may also run from the floor.

Youth Committee applicants are reviewed by the Nominating Committee, which makes recommendations to the Board of Directors, and the board determines the Youth Committee selections. The USBC Youth Committee assists in promoting and governing youth components of the organization.
