The Paralyzed Veterans of America Bowling Tournament series is held at various locations around the country. Each tournament consists of three divisions based on handicapped bowling scores. Each division competes for prizes. 

In collaboration with local VA facilities and the local disability community PVA an will host instructional clinics centered around attracting new veteran wheelchair bowlers and engaging youth with disabilities to learn the basics and refine their wheelchair bowling skills.

Typically, on Friday nights the bowling participants are paired with able-bodied local community partners to compete in an up-down competition. These teams compete for cash prizes and raise money for local PVA chapters.
