My team has been very supportive this year.

And since x-mas is still around the corner, i wanna each of something. Besides, it leaves this thread open for ideas for others.

Thanks in advance gang!

Btw the stock stuffing stuff should be pool related and relatively inexpensive: let's keep it around the $25.00 mark.

I think cue holders might be one of the few decent accessories out there and they fall right in your price range:

I think the Ultimate Tip Tool is a useful thing for any pool player to have. You might caution them to avoid using the forked end of it, which seems to be designed to test how well your tip is glued on (some won't survive), but besides that it has two shapers, nickel and dime, and a scuffer/tapper. Very handy for reshaping a tip that has flattened some or for getting a glazed-over tip to hold chalk again.

Yep. I like that idea too. And agree, I used the fork thingy, and it killed my tip. :)
 
How about an official pro player autographed Qball?:rolleyes:

Whew. After I posted that, I thought "man he may get pissed at me, like I'm implying his teammates can't shoot well and need help"... but I'm glad I got the opposite reaction :)
 
Head to Chicago and look up Freddy the Beard, he will have plenty of stocking stuffer material! I am sure your teamates will want a bunch of them.
 
My suggestion

I think a yearly subscription to one of the top 3 pool magazines would be a gift that keeps on giving all year round. Billiards Digest, Pool and Billiards Magazine and or Inside Pool. I have subs to all of them.All 3 are very good magazines and it also helps support the sport we all love and cherish.

That sounds great too!
 
Well

1) TipPik Shadows (fit on a keyring)
2) Leather burnishers.
3) Calipers (I bought some for $6.00 - 6 inch long - fits in big pocket)
4) Joint Protectors
5) Chalkers
6) Get T-Shirts made with team name on them.
7) Take the team out to dinner somewhere.
8) Why isn't there: 8, 9 ball, and 14.1 Cologne .... LOL Don't you think a Cologne named '1 Pocket' is rather sensual?
9) Bottles of Cue cleaner and polish? My cuemaker has their own, and is only $5-10 a bottle. It does both with one application.
10) 1 free lesson from an instructor.
11) The Owl (magnifier with built-in light size of credit card for league scorekeeping aid).
12) Gift certificate at a good Pool room store.

One year, I was Captain, and threw a big barbeque, and bought over $150 worth of steaks.
