Only one week left for the top 5 men and top 4 women to qualify for trip to the BC Championships in Penticton March 1-5. A few stats were had on Wednesday and players are moving on up.

Jim Brown and Dominick each got a ERO and a First Attempted. Serge Tremblay got two First Attempts. Tracy Cross, Gordon Walls, Rob Wright and Gary Routledge each had a ERO. Brian Wise, Al Wingart, Matt Zacharias, James Wood and Peter Hsu all got a First Attempted and Alan Morgan had a ZIP.

Saturday January 28th, last Saturday of the month tourney at the Avalanche, entry is $20, Green free is $2 and bar adds $100 to the pot. Race to 4 on A side 3 on B side, tables open at noon, starts at 1pm.
Pay top lady. If Top lady makes top four money gets put back and split between top four players.
Get a good turn out may pay farther down the line and I'm going to get a few prizes for the first players out.

At last Saturday's 8 Ball tourney we discussed increasing the month end tournament entry to $20 plus $2 green fee and anyone could play but no handicaps. This is to increase the skill of players for this event. All other Saturday tournaments 8 & 9 Ball we would handicap. If someone has a question about any of these events please give me a call.
