8. Scoring: In Phase 1, each team must participate in three rounds of bowling games according to the date and slot time allocated. At each round, the total score of all the 5 team members will be computed to generate the Team Score. At the issue of 3 rounds, accumulated points computed (total team score) shall be compared to each company’s score within the same group. The company with the highest total cummulative score of the 3 rounds will qualify for the second phase of the competition. The Captain must confirm and sign the score at the end of each match before leaving.

9. In the second phase, the 16 qualified teams will then proceed to a knockout stage (determined by a draw), the quarter finals, semi finals & finals respectively. There will also be a match to determine the 3rd place.

10. Ties:
• Phase 1: If there is a tie between the total team score of two teams of the same group at the end of phase 1, the team with the highest team score over 3 rounds will win. See example below:

Based on the above, Team B will win over Team A because it has the highest team score of 644 over the 3 rounds. As such, Team B will get qualified for Phase 2.

• Phase 2: If there is a tie during either the knockout, semi-finals, finals or 3rd place match, the following will apply: Each team member will be given one additional throw. (note: a throw is defined as one single ball thrown down the lane & the score will be determined by the number of pins knocked down).
