Juli 2016 findet in Las Vegas die 40. Ausgabe der BCAPL National Championships statt. Diese Veranstaltung ist gleichzusetzen mit einer nationalen Meisterschaft.

Die BCAPL National Championships ist eines der größten Pool Billard Events in den USA, hier werden nahezu 1000 Spieler erwartet, die auf mehr als 300 Diamond Pool Tables an den Start gehen werden. Ein logistischer Aufwand, der seinesgleichen sucht. Während dieser Veranstaltung spielen die Pros die US Open 8 Ball & 10 Ball Championships 2016. Dabei ist zu beachten das beide Turniere auf sogenannten Bar Tables (7 Fuß) gespielt werden. Diese Tischgröße erfreut sich in den Staaten immer noch sehr großer Beliebtheit. Die US Open […]

US Open 10-Ball & US Open 8-Ball Championship Dates Changed

6. April 2016 Sixpockets.de Kommentare deaktiviert

CueSports International, Henderson, NV (April 5, 2016) – The 2016 US Open 10-Ball Championship and 2016 US Open 8-Ball Championship dates have been changed to July 20-25. The two events were previously scheduled for July 22-29 during the BCAPL National Championships in Las Vegas, NV. However, the World 9-Ball Championship in Qatar, previously scheduled for September 12-23, changed its dates to July 25 – August 4. This created a conflict for players wanting to compete in both. For the benefit of the players and the betterment of all events, CSI has rescheduled the US Open 10-Ball and 8-Ball Championships. Stage I of the World 9-Ball Championships (July 25-28) is a qualification stage and will have little impact on US Open 10-Ball & US Open 8-Ball Championship participants. Stage II (July 29 – August 4) was the primary conflict. By rescheduling our events to end on July 25, players participating in Qatar will have ample time for travel. For those players not traveling to Qatar, we have modified the schedule of three other events to provide […]
