The Premier Tenpin Bowling Club (PTBC) is Britain's premier ten-pin bowling association under the BTBA.
The purpose of the PTBC is to organise and promote a series of bowling tournaments on a 'Scratch' basis, that being a game without benefit of a handicap and works on the players actual scores.
The PTBC is run by a committee. The members are President Steve Thornton, Vice President Rob Thurlby, Secretary Andy James and Treasurer Alex Hamilton.
PTBC membership is subject to being a member of the BTBA and in regard to foreign nationals and professional players, they need to be members of their own national association. For example, in the United States it would be the PBA or USBC.
In PTBC tournaments, general rules will apply under BTBA regulations.
Major PTBC tournaments include the PTBC Storm English Open, PTBC Tour Masters and PTBC Airport Bowl/Challenge.
Other PTBC events include the PTBC Legends Challenge, PTBC Bromborough, Croydon Classic, Bruce Ford Memorial, and the PTBC Tolworth.

Five-pin bowling is a bowling variant which is played in Canada, where many bowling alleys offer it, either alone or in combination with ten-pin bowling. It was devised around 1909 by Thomas F. Ryan in Toronto, Ontario, at his Toronto Bowling Club, in response to customers who complained that the ten-pin game was too strenuous. He cut five tenpins down to about 75% of their size, and used hand-sized hard rubber balls, thus inventing the original version of five-pin bowling.
Ten-pin bowling is a type of bowling in which a bowler rolls a bowling ball down a wood or synthetic lane toward ten pins positioned evenly in four rows in an equilateral triangle. The objective is to knock down all ten pins on the first roll of the ball, or failing that, on the second roll. People approach modern ten-pin bowling as either a demanding precision sport or as a simple recreational pastime.
