I think it's worth for me to play there even tough my game isn't close to the level that's going to be played there. I wish they can make an Junior Trick Shots National Champ.
 
EAGLETRICKSHOTS...You cannot just "show up" and play (or buy your way in) in the BEF Junior Nationals. You must win a qualifier. You can contact the BEF and find out when and where qualifiers will be held in your area, and you can travel farther to other qualifiers if you want. BTW, usually Tom Rossman (Dr. Cue) hosts that tournament, and usually has some kind of trick shot competition along with the regular tournament.

Just an FYI;

CSI sponsors about a dozen or more junior players to the BEF nationals every year. In boys and girls divisions.

If there are any interested players, the need to contact Sarah Rousey, who helps coordinate our junior program.

We are in the 'slow' process of establishing some really cool programs for the juniors - but we also support the BEF and their program.

Email: sarahR@playcsipool.com and give her the name, age and any other pertinent info so she can contact the players family and make arrangements.

This is NOT limited to just BCAPL or USAPL members. This offer is open to any junior within the age limits.

In some cases, there are no qualifiers held - and a player can get to the nationals by showing potential.

Please pass this along-

Mark Griffin, CEO

BCAPL - USAPL
 
That's great Mark! Just another class act by CSI! :thumbup:

Just a reminder, but all donations to BEF are a tax deduction. I donated $130 last year, and I received a letter from the BEF confirming my donation to this non-profit entity.

For the pool enthusiast who's trying to make a little difference in the pool world, it's a win-win all the way around. :p
 
As Mark said above, please contact me if you are interested in playing or if you have a child or know of anyone that would like the opportunity to play in the event. We still have about a week to fill some spots. Please send me an email: sarahR@playcsipool.com. We would love to help get kids involved!
