Can a league adopt a rule that limits each team to naming two substitutes who bowl only for a particular team during the season?
Although WIBC/ABC/YABA recommend roving substitutes be used, league rules may be adopted for using designated substitutes, and for setting a substitute limit. However, without a league rule, a team could have any number of designated or roving substitutes. Other than Rule 107c, there are no specific rules governing substitutes unless adopted by the league. There are two types of substitutes: designated and roving. A designated substitute generally bowls for one team as needed. A roving substitute is allowed to bowl with any team.
