As many of you may have noticed, in order to fit a spring 2021 session into the league year and still have time for tri cups prior to the World Qualifier in July, we were forced to trim several weeks off of the fall 2020 schedule which is currently concluding. With that in mind, we reached out to the national office for some relief on the standard 4 match rule, requiring all players to have at min

After getting clarification from the Louisiana State Fire Marshal's office this morning.... pool is back statewide. (with restrictions of course). We will restart league play tomorrow (Thursday, March 4) for those teams currently participating in the fall 2020 session. If you are not currently listed (in the Fall 2020 session) as playing at your normal location and wish to return to that location

I'm not exactly sure what a conniption is but I'm about to have one. So after reading and posting about the details on the restrictions on bar games in phase 3, the documents have been changed and the percent positivity requirements for bar games removed. We are going to contact the State Fire Marshal tomorrow morning to get clarification but if it goes as planned we will be back on to restart Thu

While we, at least for a moment, were jubilant with the news that bars would be able to open statewide at a minimum 25 percent capacity, it seems it was a case of premature elation (it happens to guys sometimes). The governor slipped us another one, opening bars statewide but keeping the restrictions on bar games requiring that parishes be at or under 5 percent positivity for two consecutive weeks

In today's update from the governor, Louisiana will be moving into phase 3 as of tomorrow, Wednesday, March 3. What does that mean for our APA family? Bars in all parishes will be open at 25 percent and at 50 percent in parishes with below 5 percent positivity for two consecutive weeks. SO THIS MEANS WE CAN GET ROLLING AGAIN! At this time, we are reaching out to the host locations in areas that we

We have pushed back one week our 8 and 9 ball scotch doubles divisions scheduled to play this Monday and Tuesday due to the threat of inclement weather. The schedule will remain the same with play resuming on Monday, Feb. 22 at the Billiard Brothers in Denham. If you have questions, contact me at 985-807-4829.

The Office of the State Fire Marshal in conjunction with the Office of Alcohol and Tobacco recently released revised guidelines for permit holders in the state. Pool will now be allowed at restaurants and conditional restaurants statewide as well as in bars located in parishes who have recorded below 5 percent positivity for two consecutive weeks and assuming the parish "opts in" to allow the reop

Due to the ATC and fire Marshal enforcement of Governor John Bel Edward’s discriminatory restrictions related to the playing of bar games, including pool, in our already capacity-restricted host locations, we will be forced once again to immediately suspend league play.

Based on the governor's decision to keep bars closed using unorthodox metrics and no change for the foresseable future, we have decided to restart league play at those locations which are currently available to host.
