Elevate Your Game with The Champions Challenge!

The 1st Champions Challenge crushed it—so we’re bringing it back for Round 2!

The Champions Challenge sparked growth; it was just the beginning—now the players are ready to ignite their full potential.

The Champion’s Challenge provides a series of informal weekly tutorial drills that are designed to provide a self-paced and interactive way for players of all levels who are looking to challenge themselves. We hope this challenge will be a rewarding way to help you build confidence, improve your skills, and learn new techniques.

Every week that you participate, you will be given an entry into the session end drawing for cues, accessories, Pool Dawg gift cards, free lessons and more!

As our community continues to grow, we’re committed to providing every player—whether experienced or just starting out—an opportunity to improve and gain more experience.

The Champion’s Challenge is brought to you by one of our own, Will Hagen, an experienced private instructor, to help lead the way. With 27 years of experience, including 17 years competing in the APA, Will brings both expertise and a deep passion for coaching. Will and Jake Griffin, our Sr. Division Rep, will be working side by side to guide the series and ensure everything runs smoothly.

We're grateful that he has joined up with The Valley APA and to Jake for volunteering their time to be able to provide this amazing opportunity to our players.

Don’t just play—grow!

New 8 Ball Tri Annual Structure
9/5/25 - 4:00 pm
Teams only play both days if they make it to the finals! No more playing into the wee hours—just great competition and a fair shot for everyone. The 8-Ball Tri-Annual Tournament has officially expanded into a two-day event. Due to our continued growth, we found that even with split days and contained brackets, trying to fit everything into one day led to matches running late into the early morning
