8-BALL CITY TOURNAMENT:

The 8 ball City Tournament will be held at Davidson Hall in Reynoldsburg on June 20,21,22. Qualified teams from the summer, fall, and spring Tri-Cups will be participating with a maximum of 64 teams. Once this tournament is finished, 5 8-ball teams will be headed to Las Vegas in August.

RUN SINGLES BOARDS NOW!!

Call now to run a singles board. Be one of the contestants to participate in the next Singles Regional. Who knows, you may be making the next trip to Vegas!

All that is required is a person willing to take time to set a date and time. It doesn't matter where the tournament is run. It can be in someone's basement! Make an evening out of it. Up to 8 players can participate. The total cost for the board is $120. With 8 participants, each player will pay $15. The fewer participants, the greater the cost.

We encourage you to run boards for the same skill levels(ex. 3's & 4's). It is no fun for a 3 to be in a singles tournament against a 7. As you can see above, the Regional separates the skill levels giving everyone a chance to go to Vegas. The more boards we run, the more participants we have in the regional and the better the chance to hold the regional in Columbus.

US AMATEUR:

NEW DEADLINE: REGISTRATION FORMS MUST BE MAILED TO THE NATIONAL APA IN ST. LOUIS BY JUNE 13. IF YOU ARE STILL INTERESTED, GET REGISTERED NOW!

The APA is sponsoring the US Amateur for 2003 again. Changes to the U.S. Amateur for 2003. Two divisions will now be held - a Men's Division and a Women's Division. One person from each preliminary tournament (16 total) will advance to the U.S. Amateur Championship being held in Berlin, Connecticut. The winner of each Division (Men's and Women's) of the Amateur Championship held in Berlin will receive free travel, lodging and entry into a 2004 Pro Event, compliments of the APA.

The 2003 U.S. Amateur Preliminary round will be held at the Golden 8 Ball in Columbus. This will be held September 20 and 21, 2003. All male skill levels 7 & higher and all female skill levels 6 & higher will receive an invitation in the mail from the APA. The entry fee is $40 for APA members and $50 for non-APA members. Any player can participate in this event regardless of skill level.
