COMPETITIONS AND NEWS
FALKIRK SNOOKER LEAGUE
This year only the Falkirk Snooker Centre will be
operating teams in the Falkirk District Snooker League.
This is a handicapped league that is open to players
of all abilities with matches, other than Cup Finals,
played on Tuesday evenings. The various teams are
regularly looking for additional players, so anyone
interested should contact the management in either of
the clubs.
AMERICAN POOL TOURNAMENT
Uncle Sam's Pool Club is intending to restart the
weekly 9-Ball Handicap event. This competition
previously ran for three years in the club every
Wednesday night with players from all over Scotland
entering. The upsurge in 9-Ball Pool through such
televised events as the Mosconi Cup and World Pool
Championships is a refreshing advance in the sport,
but our tournaments are targetted as much at the
beginner as they are at the seasoned player. Check
for details at Uncle Sam's....and remember, our
events are Shark-Free Zones!
INTERNAL LEAGUE
Recently, we introduced a non-handicapped tournament for
players of all standards at the clubs. This tournament
ran for four months, initially with 30 competitors, but this
was trimmed down to 25 as the competition progressed. The
result was very encouraging with only 17% of the total
number of games not being played. The format of the tourament
has been tweeked slightly andwill be restarting shortly once
we determine the duration and persons who will be involved.
We will keep you posted.
