Bowlsnet is excellent at most things but it cannot merge two sets of tables to produce one over-arching table of the top bowlers in our league. That requires a bit of manual effort involving Excel to produce the latest position in the quest for the Top Bowler Trophy to go to the end of season winner. We show the top 40 bowlers and just to remind you that the criteria for determining the running order is
Most Games Won
Best 'Aggregate For' Total
Biggest 'Aggregate Difference'

Good news ! Jeff, this is my final comment on averages .
Looking at the list it still doesn’t seem right to me that number 15 Gary senior with an average of 12.75 and number 26 david frost , average 14.33, are so low down the averages having won all their games very convincingly. Under the old system they would have been 2nd and 1st respectively.
