APA Play Safe Campaign

by San Diego APA


As you have hopefully heard by now, we have scheduled the restart of session play for the week of June 13th. The plan is to finish the Spring Session 2020. There were 6 weeks of play remaining for all standard format divisions, but with this late restart and the deadline to get qualified for the 2021 APA World Pool Championships , we are going to have to play every week once we get restarted. There may still be some mask requirements and social distancing protocols we will have to follow upon our return and we will be following APA’s “Play Safe” campaign so that we're all doing our part to create a safe playing environment for everyone.
