Hello Players,
I hope that everyone had a great Holiday Season. Its time to start the 2010 Predator Tour Season! Congratulations to Shaun Wilkie for winning the Predator Tour Finale in December! Great shooting buddy!
I am proud to announce that Ozone Billiards has come on board as the title sponsor for the 2010 Season! Ozone Billiards, www.ozonebilliards.com is known as the #1 site for billiard supplies including cues, racks, accessories etc. Ozone Billiards is also known for their great customer service, best prices and 90 day risk free 100% satisfaction guarantee.
Stop #1 will be taking place this Saturday and Sunday January 16-17 at Raxx Pool Room Bar & Grill in West Hempstead, Long Island and as always, we will be using the amazing Delta-13 racks provided by www.Delta-13.com.
This stop will be limited to 96 ABCD players (48 AB & 48 CD players) & 32 Open/Pros.
As most of you know, we have changed the format for the tour this year. We are going to have 14 Open/ABCD stops and 5 ABCD Double Point stops this season. The Open/ABCD stops will feature 2 separate events. The Open/Pro players will play 10-Ball, call shot/safety, rack your own and winner breaks. The ABCD players will play 9-Ball, rack your own and alternate breaks.
Registration for the ABCD event closes at 11:30 AM and play starts at 12 Noon. Registration for the Open/Pro event closes at 2 PM and play starts at 3 PM.
There is an annual Registration fee of $30 for each player for the 2010 season.
CSI (Cue Sports International) has given us a spot for the U.S. Open 10-Ball which will be taking place May 18-22, 2010 in Las Vegas. The tour will pay for the spot by taking $125 each stop until we have the $550 entry for CSI. The Open/Pro player that is ranked #1 after stop # 6 will get the spot! If the # 1 ranked player already has an invitation to the U.S. Open 10-Ball, the # 2 ranked player will get the spot and so forth. I cannot thank CSI enough for giving the players from this region the opportunity to represent our tour in this prestigious event.
Collared shirts required!
No phone entries will be taken and all players must wait in line to pay their entry. I will not accept an entry for 2 players. Every player must be present and stand in line to pay their own entry.
Looking forward to seeing everyone!
