Hi all
Its been a while since last time I've been on the forum.
I will be running 9 ball tour in my local pool hall and I'd like to hear from you guys if you could give me some suggestion on how to set a handicap for players and how to adjust during a tournament.
Tour will be every week on thursday night in a pool hall with 10 nine footers (8 Brunswick and 2 Diamonds).
I was thinking about starting-lowest handicap "5" for players that I don't know or any other players with low skill level. It will be an alternate break determine by a coin flip. Tour will have points ranking updated every week, but I am not sure how many points to give to each player. I have double elimination brackets ready for 32 players. Also there will be 9 ball break-n-run contest(5 raffle tickets for $5.00 or 15 tickets for $10.00). I was thinking about 2 drawings each week and if there is no winner money goes to the pot for next week.
I have a lot to think about and I'd like some advices from you on how to run it.
Thanx in advance.
