We are New Mexico’s only LGBTQIA+ friendly bowling league! We’ve been playing with balls with holes – and having a blast – since 2005!

At Sunday Night Out, we believe bowling should be fun, welcoming, and inclusive for everyone. We welcome ALL bowlers – regardless of skill level, background, sexuality, gender identity, pronouns, age, shape, size, or experience. Whether you’re a seasoned bowler or brand new to the lanes, you belong here!

You do not need to identify as LGBTQIA+ to join. We proudly welcome allies and anyone who supports an inclusive and respectful community.

Sunday Night Out is certified by the United States Bowling Congress (USBC) and is a proud member of the International Gay Bowling Organization (IGBO).


Our next season begins August 9th 2026!


ALL BOWLERS must attend the first nights meeting prior to beginning the season. This meeting begins at 4:30PM in the bowling house bar the first night with a roll call for everyone who has signed up for this half of the season.

Details:
  • We bowl every Sunday night at 6:00pm (minus some holidays – see SCHEDULE) for 16 weeks.
  • League practice begins at 5:45pm with normal league play starting promptly after.
  • Teams consist of four people, with up to two alternates per team.
    If you have a four person team already…great! If you need a team to join, you can sign up individually or as a couple, and we can help you form a team with others.
  • Our league is constantly growing!
    When we started in 2005, we had just 8 teams with 4 players each – a total of 32 bowlers. What began as a small league quickly grew into something special. By 2018, we had filled our previous bowling center with 32 teams, and during our first season at Silva Lanes in Fall 2018, we reached an incredible 36 teams -144 bowlers strong! Today, we continue to thrive, averaging 28–32 teams each 16-week season half.
Cost:
  • USBC Sanction Fee (required): $34 annually

    Everyone is required to be sanctioned through USBC (United States Bowling Congress). Renewable annual fee, due every August.

    Sanction fees can be paid online HERE. If you pay online, please bring a copy of your confirmation receipt the first night you bowl, or email it to us (snopresident1@gmail.com) so we can submit to our local association.

  • League Fee: $20.50* weekly for 16 weeks (cash** or check)

    If you want to pay for the entire season at one time, the full season amount is $328 (or $362 if including the $34.00 USBC sanction fee). You can pay this the first night of league, by cash* or check made payable to “Sunday Night Out”.
    * This fee is voted on the first night of bowling and may change.
    ** You will receive change if you pay in cash over $20.50 (but less that $41.00), as we do not hold extra monies or run balances per bowler.
