As many may know, I have become disenchanted in the BCA (Billiard Congress of America) over the last few years. So much that not too long ago, I mentioned in a post that I would not be renewing our (CSI's) membership in the BCA.
I just had a couple conversations with them in the last week or so. In fact, we had some interesting talks about the future of pool in the US. I think they may finally be 'seeing the light' (according to my standards - lol) - and I am sending in my membership today.
Probably the most visible example of their presence is the stand the BCA (with the WPA) took against Dragon Promotions and the Women's event now going on in NYC.
Now lets see what (if anything ) they can do on the 14.1 event. (Really - the 73rd event)?????
I have always believed in the potential of the WPA/BCA but somehow I feel they lost the direction. I think they might be coming around - and for that, I am going to continue my support.
Many people misunderstand the role of the BCA - I think I understand it but I also think they can be a much bigger and better influence in pool in the US.
