History<\/h2>\n

CDE Software formed in the early 80\u2019s in Los Angeles, initially developing a checkbook financial program, \u201cChecks and Balances\u201d that was a forerunner to Quicken. In 1989, founders Patrick Lajko and Ray Yokoyama saw a niche, taking Patrick\u2019s love of bowling during his youth and expertise in computer software, to develop the BLS Bowling League Software. CDE Software moved its offices to Seattle shortly after launching BLS, where it remains.<\/p>\n

Over the years, CDE\u2019s Bowling League Secretary (BLS) has evolved into the premier league management tool. In 1994, CDE began integrating with electronic scoring manufacturers, of which QubicaAMF was one of the earliest partners. Other areas of expansion have been tournament and bracket software along with kiosk software and bowling clipart.<\/p>\n

On October 31, 2016, \u00a0QubicaAMF acquired ownership of CDE Software from founder Patrick Lajko\u2019s family trust. \u00a0CDE was founded by Patrick Lajko, an industry veteran and visionary, and is known worldwide for BLS (Bowling League Secretary), the industry standard in League Software. Over the last four decades CDE, developing and marketing leading applications such as BLS, BTM and T-Brac, has become the undisputed industry leader in competitive bowling software.<\/p>\n

QubicaAMF and CDE strongly believe in the future of competitive bowling and are poised to work together for proprietors and the millions of league and tournament bowlers around the world by focusing on product innovation to protect and grow the sport.<\/p>\n

CDE will continue to operate out of its Seattle facility with its current employees. Lance has been promoted to President of CDE Software. Lance will continue to lead CDE going forward as he does today. Customers can expect business as usual in terms of support and continuity of service. CDE Software will remain the industry standard and continue to support all scoring manufacturers, bowling centers and consumers as it does today.<\/p>\n

QubicaAMF and CDE strongly believe in the future of competitive bowling and are poised to work together for proprietors and the millions of league and tournament bowlers around the world by focusing on product innovation to protect and grow the sport.<\/p>\n

Since inception of USBC, CDE Software has been the only league and tournament software company represented at the annual USBC National Convention, taking the time to speak with its many customers face-to-face, getting feedback on product features needed to keep our products focused on the needs of the bowling community.\u00a0 CDE has also been a longstanding BPAA exhibitor at the annual Bowl Expo convention, exhibiting for over 20 years.<\/p>\n

CDE Software not only emphasizes its own products, but also on general education. CDE has always been dedicated to helping bowling proprietors and bowling associations get more comfortable with CDE\u2019s products as well as computers in general.<\/p>\n
