NEED INPUT FROM THE AZB COMMUNITY 
The National Championship Series (NCS) is ramping up quickly. To date we have 15 qualifier dates for the NCS 8-Ball National Championship sanctioned, scheduled and being publicized. There are also 2-4 more in the past 24 or so hours that have signed up and will be added to our calendar the end of today.
(below is a link to the most recent press release and current calendar, which is being updated approximately every other day...so keep checking for a qualifier near you:

However, there are some areas of the U.S that we still need rooms that have a minimum of 6 nine foot tables. The goal is a total of 32-33 qualifiers around the country. We set up the qualifier program in order to offer the players the opportunity to participate on a more local / regional level and not have to travel as far from home and to offer and encourage positive involvement from and towards as many rooms across the country as possible.
Almost all of the qualifiers will send two people to the NCA 8-Ball Championships where the 64 players at the national level will compete for a minimum of $32,000 prize fund, prizes and the winner also receiving a spot and all expenses to represent the United States to the World 8-Ball Championships. The U.S. sends 6 players to this tremendous international event - five of which will receive invites and with the 6th being the winner of the NCS 8-Ball Championships.
SO I CALL OUT TOall room owners around the U.S. who have at least six 9 foot tables and whom I have not had the pleasure of talking to yet, or if you know of a room that meets that criteria, please respond to this thread or you can contact me at the CueSports International office at 702-719-7665
I especially need rooms in Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kentucky, Utah or Idaho, and Ohio.
