It would be great if Ga Young Kim could play in this also. She is an avid fan and I believe both her parents play also. She is a super player of all billiard games and a really sweet ,fun girl.

Quedup, Paul Frankel did receive a call from Ga Young Kim about the Tournament, which surprise him. It all about who eligible under USBA rule?

I mention to Paul maybe he should talk with Charlie Williams, about the women.

I would love to see Allison Fisher- in an article, she stated, she would play in a 3 Cushion Tournament. Maybe Shanella Loraine or Vivian Villarreal will sign up. Or we just wait and see who play.

Maybe Paul Frankel [Professorqball] will give us an update!

Hopefully more to follow. And here it is:

Hello Bob, I am in Louisville now and went through the hotel so I can do
my layout of the event.

Entry for the ladies is $100 + $36 USBA Membership dues.

$4,000 added money so far and a $1,200 Dieckman Cue.

Dress code for the women, is casual.

This copy from USBA website:

For the ladies here the information from UMB website

One of the main functions of the USBA is to arrange for US players to go to world championship tournaments. Mazin Shooni and Pedro Piedrabuena are in Ecuador right now for the World Championships there. The USBA pays for their expenses. We certainly plan to send a representative to Sivas.

ga young kim

Well if she wants to play I will marry here and this will fix the citizenship situation.I will cut the usual fee in half also.:eek: :eek:
 
LILJOHN30, It hard to believe that Ga Young Kim, Allison Fisher,Shanella Loraine or other don't have Green Card so they can competed in this Tournament. I wonder why Liz Ford didn't enter.

Truthful I was hoping maybe, just maybe Jean Balukas would enter. Now that would be something!

But for the Ladies that did enter. A Big Thank You for making this tournament happening.

I will be making a donation later. But if anyone want to make a donation, they can.
