Our youth bowlers are the future of the sport of bowling!

The Morris County NJ USBC is proud of its youth programs. From Youth leagues, to Youth and Adult/Youth Tournaments. All of our Board members are SafeSport Trained and Certified, and are members of the Registered Volunteer Program.

USBC created the Registered Volunteer Program (RVP) to assure parents that we provide as safe an environment as possible for USBC youth. The program ensures that any volunteers who work with USBC Youth are qualified to do so, and gives proprietors, coaches and prospective volunteers alike an opportunity to demonstrate their commitment to the safety of youth bowlers by either registering in the program themselves or inviting registered volunteers to take part in local USBC Youth activities.
