The Showcase Lanes and VIP program are back in 2013.

The 900 Global Showcase Lanes were introduced to the USBC Open Championships landscape in 2012, and the concept will be expanded this year in Reno, Nev. The ground floor of the National Bowling Stadium will include 10 Showcase Lanes, which will be used for practice, coaching and two new side events.

Showcase Lanes
Bowlers looking to practice on the tournament lane condition (team condition only) or work with Matt McNiel, a three-time Open Championships titlist and USBC-certified coach, will be able to book a practice session before heading to Reno.

To reserve your coaching or practice times, call (866) 977-7433 or email showcaselanes@bowl.com.

VIP Program
The introduction of the VIP program in 2012 went over very well, so don't miss out in 2013. The program includes great features, like a one-hour coaching session on the 900 Global Showcase Lanes, VIP check-in and scale room access, complimentary locker, access to the VIP lounge, photo/video discounts, VIP polo and much more!

*There also will be a VIP program for USBC Women's Championships participants in 2013.

To sign up for the VIP program, visit BOWL.com/VIP or call 800-514-2695, ext. 8418.

Side Events
The 900 Global Showcase Lanes will feature two new side events - the 900 Global Two-Game Challenge and the Who's Got the Look Baker Bonanza presented by 900 Global. The unique formats give bowlers of all ages and skills levels the chance to have some fun and win additional prize money. Read more now

*The Storm Bowlers Journal Championships presented by USBC also will be held inside the National Bowling Stadium. The event, which will utilize the same lane condition being used for doubles and singles at the 2013 Open Championships, will be held on the high end of the main lanes on the fourth floor.
