The NSL Honor Roll for individual high games has been elevated from a projected 260 to 270 in week 1 to 280 in week 2. The Honor Roll for 2 game totals has been raised from 540 to 550. Over the past two years wii bowlers have benefitted from a lot practice and more opportunity to compete. Scores continue to rise from all skill levels.

The NSL honors all wii bowlers regardless of ability. This seasons playoffs will include all NSL Wii bowlers. The top 3 teams in each conference and the 10 next best teams determined by NSL Points will advance to the championship rounds to determine the National Champion - Premier League.
