You dont have to bowl badly to be in a bad bowlers league. We have plenty of 0 handicaps bowling (who often bowl 300 games with the 9 pin counting as a strike on the first ball).
Your handicap will be established and your scores will be normalized to 220 or whatever the leagues number is. So if my average is 150, my handicap is 70.

My 150 average in 9 pin no tap might really be 130 in villagetinkers league where I have to actually throw a strike to have it count.
