The Hammer Bronzen Schietspoel Tournament 2016 was the third event of the 2016 European Bowling Tour and the first of four “EBT Silver” events this season, the third highest of the four EBT categories.

The HBST was held from Sunday, February 8 through Sunday, January 31 through Sunday, February 7, at 20-lane Dolfijn Bowling Tilburg in Tilburg, Netherlands, and was contested on a 41 foot oil pattern with 28.25 mL volume oil total.

Players competed for total prize money of 41.000 Euro with 5.000 Euro going to the winner, 3.000 to the runner-up and 2.000 and 1.500 to third and fourth place finishers, respectively. Low to cash was 40th place (500 Euro). The qualifying leader and the winner of squad 6 each got a 1.000 Euro bonus.

Qualifying ran through Saturday, February 14 and concluded with the one-game Desperado Squad. Women received 8 pins handicap each game (maximum score is 300), an equality handicap provided to women in all EBT events.

Total 40 players advanced to the finals on Sunday, February 7, including the top 30 qualifiers, the top 4 from the Desperado Squad and the top 6 from a separate leaderboard of Squads 1-5 who are outside the top 30. The top 2 qualifiers received two byes, qualifiers 3-8 earned a first-round bye.

Players ranked 9 to 40 bowled four games with the top 18 players joining the qualifiers 3-8 (seeded 1-6) in the eliminator finals. Those 24 players were divided into six groups of four players each for the first of four eliminator rounds.

All four players of each group bowled a two-game match with the two lowest scoring players eliminated. The two highest scoring players advanced to the next round. In the first round, two “lucky losers” (the two highest third-place finishers) also advanced.

The field was cut to 16, 8 and then four players, who determined the top 4 places in the last eliminator round.

The 2016 European Bowling Tour commences with the 10th International Wroclaw Open, a “satellite” tournament, which will be held from Feb. 17-21 at Galeria Rozrywki Miraz in Wroclaw, Poland.
