Unity in Sportsmanship
The captain’s/membership meeting will take place this Tuesday, August 23 at 6:30 pm at the Pilsner Inn. One member from each team is asked to attend.
An updated copy of the Handbook and the regular season divisions and schedules have been posted, along with most tournament dates and locations. We are still working on arranging host sites for the large-format events like the Bernie King and Hi-Lo.
Hello league members, we hope you are enjoying your summer break from pool!
Thanks to all the team captains who have entered in their team name and player information. Team registrations will close on August 16, though players can still be added or removed after that date. Please email Skip Perry at webmaster.sfpapool@gmail.com with any changes to your team’s player roster.
The big event is only a week away! Anyone can participate in the 9-ball, 8-ball, and scotch doubles night tournaments. Please go to the West Coast Challenge home page for more information and a detailed schedule of events.
Volunteers are still needed for the West Coast Challenge. Opportunities are available for the following shifts:
– Friday morning for registration, afternoon or evening
– Saturday morning, afternoon or evening
– Sunday morning or afternoon for breakdown after the event
