Tournament Leader
The Tournament Leader will administer procedures and settle disputes. Upstarts follows the APA Rules. Some exceptions are:
If the break is not legal, the opposing player will initiate play with ball in hand from the “the kitchen.” Player must call the pocket for the 8 Ball.
If a player is in a shooting position when time expires, the player is allowed to continue the shot.
If the game is not completed when time expires, the player/team with the fewest balls on the table wins. If the number of balls that remain for each player/team are equal, each records a tie. The players will mark the results on the score sheet. Losers of the game will rack the balls for the next game
