I live in Raleigh.
There is the APA, but frankly I avoid it. Don't know if it's like this everywhere, but my experience with the APA around here was lot's of politics, cliques, conflicts of interest, and the sandbagging/handicap "management" was totally out of control.
There is also a new league called NAPA, which is just starting out but has been fun so far.
There are quite a few tournaments around here. Mostly 9-ball. I shoot at Brown's Billiards and Brass Tap. Both good halls with decent, full-size tables. There is also Sharky's, New York Billiards and many others, but I don't know much about them. Pool is HUGE in North Carolina.

Depends on which part of town you are in. If you are toward Cary/Apex side, then Highhouse Billiards in Cary is nice, and OntheSnap in Fuquay further to the south.
Someone already mentioned halls in town. I dont recall the name as I moved away a year ago. However, there is another poolhall in Cary that was called Babineaus, but had changed ownership after I left, so not clear on its name now.
I also avoided the APA there as I had issues with favoritism causing me to be raised and locked in at higher rank. However, may of them have weekly small tourneys or cash leagues.
