Description edit
Qualification for the men's and women's finals usually involve a three-game series rolled during the NSW State Championships. The top eight to 12 bowlers, along with the reigning champion, progress to the finals stage in the Masters.
Where there are low numbers in qualifications for any finals in any divisions, the highest qualifying scorer automatically becomes the NSW State Masters champion of that division. Masters Champions from each year are then given automatic qualification and free entry into the Australian Masters Tournament.
