“Str8 Shots has been, and always will be, committed to providing youth with as many opportunities as possible to achieve the goals they have set for themselves within this industry. We support the BEF because it encourages them to stay focused on their education while still pursuing their dreams of becoming professional billiard players,” said Marc and Kimberly Griffiths, owners of Str8 Shots.
Varner, a former junior champion himself, added, "It's awesome to be able to give something back to the game we all love. I encourage all Pro-Players to get involved with the BEF when possible. The Junior players are the future of the game but a good education will always be the most important. The BEF are doing a great job of promoting both sides and I am very happy to be involved."
