You can see in the example above that the High Scratch Game award category comes before the High Handicap Game award category. You can also see that the same three teams have won the award in both catgories. By clicking on the "Report Award Options" button you will have the opportunity to customize the award reporting using the following screen.



With this screen you can specify the ordering of the awards. 
  • Award Category Priority Order
  • You can specify the priority order for the award categories.
  • For example: You can specify that the High Handicap Game category comes before the High Scratch Game category by changing the priority for High Handicap Game to 1 and High Scratch Game to 2.
  • Only one award can be won in each category
  • If your league has a team or bowler who is really good, you may find that they have not only the first place in an award category, but maybe also second or third place.
  • To limit a team or bowler to only one award within each category, you can put a check mark before this option.
  • In the example above, if this option is checked then "Angry Byrds" could never be listed more that once as winning a High Scratch Game award in that category
  • Only one award can be won over all categories
  • If your league has a team or bowler who is really good, you may find that they are taking many of the awards in each category.
  • To limit a team or bowler to only one award over all the categories, you can put a check mark before this option.
  • The program will assign awards based on the award priority order you enter for your league
  • In the example above, if this option is checked then "Angry Byrds" would be listed in only the High Scratch Game award category. Other teams would be listed in other award categories.
