The PWBA Championship Week - Waterloo will conclude the 2023 national tour season.
The three national tour stops during the week will be:
Aug. 8-10, PWBA Waterloo Open

Aug. 13-15, PWBA Tour Championship (major on PWBA Tour schedule)
FORMAT
The PWBA Waterloo Open and PWBA Pepsi Open will feature 12 games of qualifying on the first day of competition before the field is cut to the cashers (based on the number of participants). After six additional games, another cut will be made to the top 12, who will bowl six more games.
The top five players after 24 games advance to the stepladder finals and compete for the title.
The PWBA Tour Championship field will be a 24-player field. In order to qualify for the Tour Championship, you must be a current PWBA member in good standing and have won a National Tour title during the current season. The remainder of the field will be filled from the PWBA season points list through the most recent tournament preceding the Tour Championship. All players will be seeded into the round-robin match play schedule according to their position on the season points list after the last tournament preceding the Tour Championship.
1. Members that qualify via points must participate in a minimum of 50% of the season events.
2. The PBA/PWBA Striking Against Breast Cancer champion is not eligible as PWBA points are not awarded in that event.
