The Professional Bowlers Association (PBA) Regionals are making their debut in Europe. This collaborative effort between the PBA and WBT Sweden AB is taking shape and will officially begin in Sweden this February. The PBA Sweden 2025 season is set to deliver an exciting lineup of competitions, featuring four tournaments spread throughout the year.

It is official that the first tournament will take place on February 1-2 at RC Bowl in Jönköping, marking the start of an action-packed year.

While not yet officially confirmed, BowlingLife sources suggest that the second stop of PBA Sweden 2025 will take place at Eskilstuna Bowlingcenter from April 18-19, followed by the third at New Bowl Center Gullmarsplan in Stockholm on August 9-10. Official announcements for these events are expected soon.

The series will culminate in Helsingborg, during the Storm Lucky Larsen Masters 2025 (SLLM), held at Olympia Bowling from August 22nd to August 31st. SLLM will also carry extra points for overall standings, increasing the stakes for players throughout the series.

Continuing its tradition from recent years, the Storm Lucky Larsen Masters will also offer bowlers a chance to win PBA Tour Title and a spot in the prestigious 2026 PBA Tournament of Champions.

In addition to the event titles, participants have much to compete for in PBA Sweden 2025. The top three players in the overall points standings after all four stops will earn spots in the 2025 PBA Trials, while the points leader will secure a place in the 2025 PBA Regional Players Invitational. This includes one regular division spot and another for the PBA50 division.

Furthermore, winners of each tournament will earn an international invitation to the 2026 PBA World Series of Bowling (WSOB) with the entry fee covered, along with an automatic spot in the 2025 SLLM Final Step 1.

The oil patterns for the events have also been announced. PBA Sweden's stop at Jönköping will feature the Chameleon pattern, while Eskilstuna and Stockholm will challenge bowlers with Scorpion and Badger patterns, respectively. The oil pattern for the Storm Lucky Larsen Masters will be revealed later this year.

The first PBA Sweden 2025 stop at Jönköping will feature eight games of qualification. The top 16 players will advance to the cashers round and will play another eight games. After 16 games, the top 4 will advance to the step ladder. There's only 80 spots in the event and registration is ongoing.
