Now that the dust has settled and I am back into my routine I wanted to recap the World Qualifiers. First I need to thank our host locations and my Division Reps. These events could not possibly go on without Bankshot Billiards & Sports Bar and Cushions Billiards & Lounge. We flip their weekends upside down and they provide the best service around to make our tournaments pleasurable. Our Division Reps and volunteers.. there are so many that I don't want to list them in fear I will forget someone. Thank you just doesn't do it, but I appreciate you more than you know!

These tournaments are hard, you want to see everyone go, but only 7 teams get to experience the World Pool Championship. You put your blood, sweat and tears into this! I hope you do your absolute best in Vegas, but most importantly you have the most fun!

Here is a list of our teams going to Vegas:

8 Ball: Just Kickin It, Mugshots, Rack Em-Furniss, Valhalla 8 Ballers

9 Ball: Boom Shakalaka, Smokey & the Bandits, Just Bank It

The runners up get their entry fee paid into the State Tournaments. 9 Ball State is November 7-9 and 8 Ball is February 13-15, 2026. Those teams are:

8 Ball: Busting Your Balls, Chalk is Cheap - Fyffe, Pooljunkys, Let's Do This

9 Ball: Finish on a Big Bank, Breaking Bad, Out of Pocket

Thank you everyone for playing in the largest pool league around!
