Thanks Sean for the info and hope the league in CT becomes successful for you.

Thank you. I have played in Des Moines, Ames and Marshalltown Iowa. Maybe next trip will be to Davenport.

I have wondered how many local 14.1 leagues there are around the country and have started a list. I know of a couple here in MN and sure there are many more. Please reply to this thread and I will update this information for everyone. -Dennis 1. Red Shoes Billiards Alsip IL 2. Quenten...

Dennis I enjoyed the video and run. Seems like you play in a quiet environment (room) with very good equipment. Dennis G

I am fortunate the room I play league has ball returns and rotary counters. Our scoresheet also spaces provided for keeping scores manually on the backside if the rotary counters dont work properly (spin freely). Things I have found that help me keep track are...when my turn has ended I will...

We have decided to track length of games, and adjust players "race to" dependant on their playing speed. But I still feel "extreme slow play" has to be addressed promptly.

Our divisions are 75 points, 100, 125 1nd 150 depending on player rating. Ratings adjust up and down depending on win/loss of games. Funny thing thou, some of the longer games are the higher, not lower rated players. I think once a player develops a style, whether it be slow or fast, it's hard...

Thanks everyone for your ideas and input.

I think most of our players settle in to a comfortable "pace of play" while others evaluate...then reevaluate every shot. This takes time. We thought about shot cloks but never found anything practical.

Most of the players that go up to 150 usually finish their games in less then 2.5 hours.

I am looking for ideas/help. Some of our league matches last too long. We have 3 "tiers" of play with races to 150 for highest rated players, 125 for the middle of the bunch and 100 points for lower rated players. Trouble is, some of the matches take well in excess of 3 hours. If you play in a...

Thanks for posting. great tv from 1959. I enjoyed it greatly. There was also another 10-20 show with Jimmy Moore around a while ago. -Dennis

Mosconiac Thanks...this was great. I really enjoy old time pool (and Dallas West). -Dennis

Thanks for your input. Our 14.1 league has decided to go with the "rack your own" starting this weeks league play. -Dennis

I noticed in a recent John Schmidt / Darren Appleton 14.1 match that they racked their own balls. This just got me wondering what are the advantages / disadvantages of this and could it work in a league environment? Any thoughts would be appreciated. -Dennis

Our league started out 5 years ago with only 6 players. The current session has 23 players spread over 2 divisions. We use a handicap system and games are played from 120-175 points. The support of the poolroom (Shooters Billiard Club) for this league has been great. 14.1 is finding a place...

Dennis A couple of us have bought sound protection earphones (the ones you see heavy equipment operators use) just for overly noisy nights. Our 14.1 league plays same nights as 8ball leagues and the noise, loud music affects my concentration at times. I also do watch the videos you posted..but...
