The Weber Cup, named after bowling legend Dick Weber, is the Ten pin bowling equivalent of Golf’s Ryder cup. It consists of two teams, Team Europe and Team USA competing over three days in a series of singles, doubles and team (baker) matches.
The Weber Cup is the annual Europe vs USA ten-pin bowling championships and is broadcast live from start to finish on Sky Sports in the UK and in many other international channels around the world. It takes place in October every year.
For the first 7 events, from 2000 to 2006, 35 matches were played. Each match worth 1 point. The first team to 18 points won the tournament.
In 2007, the tournament has been reduced slightly to 33 matches, again each match is worth 1 point so the first team to 17 will win.
All matches are played in a single lane arena, with banked spectators on both sides, which is specially constructed for the event.
