Player Level

All player levels are welcome. However, it is recommended players are at the High Intermediate to Advanced levels. 

Sign-in Procedure

Upon arrival, players will clearly print their name on the sign up sheet choosing a desired number. The tournament Leader reserves the right to change a player’s number prior to the start of the match.

Tournament Rules

The Tournament will follow the American Pool Players Association (APA) Rules. The players will lag to see who wins the right to break. The winner of the game will record both the loser and winner results on the Tournament score sheet. The loser will rack the balls for the next round of games.

One exception to the APA Rules

We will follow Professional Pool Players Association (PPA) Rules to determine stripe vs. solid. Per the PPA rule, the table is always open immediately after the break shot. The next ball sunk determines stripe vs. solid.

Recognition

An informational email will be sent to the Players Billiards Group and selected members of the LHBG Board.
