Details for this upcoming Saturday's 9-Ball Straight to Vegas tournament.

Location: Jointed Cue

Time: Signups start at 10AM, CLOSE at 10:30AM.

- JC doors open at 9AM, so you can come in early and eat breakfast / get some practice in if you wish.

- as usual, we'll be set up for signups by the side door (back of the main room by the door to the tournament room).

- bracket will be a modified single elimination bracket.

- There are NATIONAL eligibility requirements that you and your team MUST meet in order to participate. These requirements will be enforced, and YOU are ultimately responsible for meeting them. If a "deeper dive" uncovers someone who is ineligible after the tournament starts, you will be disqualified.

- The full requirements as well as the dates for the Vegas event can be found on the APA's poolplayers dot com website:

In a nutshell:

- total SL of team must be 10 or less

- each player must be an active member of Sacramento APA

- each player must have played at least 20 9-Ball matches in the last two years.

- each player must be active on a 9-Ball team in the current (Spring) session

- if you are playing in Vegas in 8-BALL SINGLES... you cannot play in 9-Ball Doubles due to schedule overlap.

Tournament buy-in: $50 per team - 100% of which will go towards team travel to Vegas. Separately, Sacramento APA will pay for tournament entry in Vegas as well as tournament greens fees in Vegas.

We do NOT anticipate this tournament lasting beyond Saturday, but it likely will be a full day / evening.

Good luck everyone!
