The Underground Bowling Association is expanding into new territory, and the Midwest Conference is ready to make its mark.
For the 2026–2027 season, eight bowling centers across seven Ohio cities will come together to launch a brand-new UBA conference built around competition, camaraderie, and the culture that makes UBA different.
Representing Columbus, Akron, Dayton, Lima, Chillicothe, Parma, and Cleveland, the Midwest Conference brings together eight unique teams ready to battle it out throughout the season:
Palace Patriots — Columbus Square Bowling Palace, Columbus
Steam Rollers — Station 300, Akron
Dayton Destroyers — Poelking Lanes, Dayton
Westgate Tombstone Tossers — Westgate Entertainment Center, Lima
Average Joe’s Juggernauts — Shawnee Lanes, Chillicothe
Rollhouse Deep Rollers — Rollhouse, Parma
City Bombers — Yorktown Lanes, Cleveland
Camelot Knights — Camelot Lanes, Columbus
This inaugural season represents more than simply adding another conference to the UBA map. It creates a new competitive landscape for Ohio bowlers and gives these centers an opportunity to build rivalries, develop their teams, and become part of something bigger.
The Midwest Conference has the potential to quickly establish its own identity and traditions backed by the unique and exciting culture of the UBA. Every matchup will bring a new opportunity to compete, represent your center, and prove who belongs at the top.
The road starts here.
Eight centers. Seven cities. One conference.
The Midwest Conference is officially part of the UBA—and the battle for Ohio is about to begin.
