Welcome to the National
Team Championships! Here
you’ll experience excitement and
competition unlike that which
4
you’ve ever faced before.
More than $1 Million will be awarded at this year’s
championships. If your team is up to the challenge, you
might return home as National Champions!
Before your quest for a title begins, take a moment to
reflect on what your team has accomplished. Just by
6
making it here to Vegas, you and your teammates are
already champions.
We realize that to make it this far you’ve had lots of
support from family and friends—many of whom couldn’t
make the trip.
So we’ve dedicated our website,
7
poolplayers.com, to providing updated coverage of the
event to those back home. They can also interact with us
on our Facebook page at facebook.com/poolplayers.
In addition to the National Team Championships, we’ll

once again feature our 8-Ball and 9-Ball Doubles and
Masters Championships, the 8-Ball Wheelchair Challenge,
along with nearly round-the-clock MiniMania tournaments.
“The Black Widow” Jeanette Lee will be here (Aug.
22-26) signing autographs and taking on some lucky
challengers. You can find more information about her
appearances in this event program.
We’ll also host the Ultimate Trick Shot Challenge
comprised of the top trick shot artists in the world again this
year. APA Fan Favorite Tom “Dr. Cue” Rossman will also

Fire Marshall regulations do not
allow scooters to be parked in the
playing arena or walkways, whether
the scooter user is sitting on the
scooter or not. All scooters must be
parked in the designated areas in the
Tournament Room. Please seek the
assistance of your fellow players
and spectators to properly park
and store your scooter.
Please remember
we have timelines
set in place in order
to make the event
run in a timely
manner. Holding up matches
to take smoke breaks not only delays
your match, but all of the matches
following yours. We will not
tolerate matches held up because
teams/players are not in the arena
due to taking smoke breaks. Players
caught taking their scoresheets outside
of the Tournament Room, or delaying
their match for such breaks will result
in a forfeiture of their match. Team
Captains must be responsible for
their players during match times.

Preregistered Championships
General Rules
1. For participation in the Preregistered Championships, you must have
entered and paid the entry fee prior to the deadline of June 28,
2011.
2. Table fee is $1 per game.
3. There is an enforced casual dress code. Any player that the APA
considers inappropriately dressed will be asked to change.
4. In order to conduct a fair and equal tournament for all APA players,
APA must ensure that all participants are playing at skill levels that
are not below their true ability. Accordingly, the APA may disqualify
any team/player if, in APA’s sole judgment and absolute discretion,
one (1) or more players are deemed to be playing at a skill level
below his or her true ability (8-Ball Doubles & 9-Ball Doubles), or the
player is deemed to be playing at a skill level below his or her true
ability (Wheelchair Challenge). The determination of whether a
player is playing at a skill level below his or her true ability is
necessarily subjective; APA is the sole judge of a player’s ability and
may make such a determination in its absolute judgment and
discretion. (DOES NOT APPLY TO MASTERS CHAMPIONSHIP)
5. Any player entering or participating under fraudulent circumstances
will be disqualified.
6. APA has the absolute and final authority to make all rulings affecting
participation in the APA Preregistered Championship programs
including player ability (i.e., correction of skill levels) and
disqualification. Disqualification from this event for any reason will
mean forfeiture of all titles, awards, prize money, and minimum two
year suspension from the League. Disqualification can occur prior
to, during, or after the event.
7. The APA has the authority, at its sole discretion, to make
modifications to the rules, format, or any other aspect of the Event.
8. Release of APA and Tournament Sponsors: I, the participant, being
of lawful age, as inducement for and in consideration of the
agreement by American Poolplayers Association, Inc. (APA), that I
may take part in this Event, hereby covenant and agree that the APA
and all other sponsors and their respective affiliates, directors,
officers, employees and agents (collectively Releasees) shall not be
liable for any damages arising from personal injuries, including
death, and/or damage to property that I may sustain in any way
which result from or arise out of my preparation for or any
participation in the Event. I hereby fully and forever release and
discharge and covenant not to sue Releasees from any and all
claims, demands, damages, rights of action or causes of action,
present or future, whether the same be known or unknown,
anticipated, or unanticipated, resulting from or arising out of my
preparation for or participation in the Event. I acknowledge and
agree that participation in the Event may involve the risk of such
personal injury, including death, and/or damage to property, and I
hereby assume full responsibility for any risk of such personal injury,
including death and damage to property. I warrant that I am in good
health and have no physical condition that would prevent me from
participating in the Event. I further agree for myself, my successors,
heirs, assigns, executors and administrators to indemnify and hold
Releasees harmless from and against all claims and suits for
personal injuries, including death, and damage to property, real or
personal, caused by my act or omission and arising out of my
involvement in the Event, and from all judgments and costs
recovered in said claims and suits, and from all expenses incurred
in defending said claims or suits. This Release is intended to be as
broad and inclusive as permitted by law, and if any portion is held
invalid, the balance shall continue in full legal force and effect. This
Release shall be binding on my heirs, executors, administrators and
assigns. I have read and fully understand the above Release.
9. Recording and Reproduction: I consent to the taping (audio and
video), and/or photographing of my participation in this Event, and
grant the APA and all other sponsors the right to use and reproduce
my name, voice, and likeness in any and all photographs and video
reproductions taken or made of myself for any purpose whatsoever.
I release the APA and all other sponsors, their employees, agents,
successors and assigns from any liability whatsoever for such use
and reproduction of my name, voice, and likeness. I agree that the
photographs, videos and any sound tracks taken or made of me are
the exclusive property of the APA and/or all other sponsors, and I
waive any right of inspection or review.
10. If this Event is cancelled, for any reason, I understand that my only
remedy is a refund of my entry fee.

Rules of Conduct
The APA has established and will strictly enforce the
following conduct rules for Higher Level Tournament play.
floor, etc., or recklessly swinging a cue will be
disqualified immediately and required to leave the
tournament premises.
1. No loud, abusive or profane language will be tolerated
at this tournament. You are in the League to have a
good time and to enjoy some friendly competition. If
you experience a problem, one of our tournament
officials will address it; simply bring the matter to our
attention. Remember that in each situation the ruling
will favor one side against the other side, and it is
required that each team or player accept official
rulings without causing a scene.
5. Abusive behavior towards the Tournament Director or
any of his/her designates will not be tolerated.
2. Unsportsmanlike conduct directed to the opposing
player, team or tournament official is not allowed.
3. Anyone involved in an incident that includes either
physical abuse or the throwing of an item will be
disqualified immediately, and required to leave the
tournament premises.
4. Anyone caught hitting a cue against the table, wall,
6. Excessively slow play will not be tolerated. You will be
warned before any penalty occurs.
The penalties for violating any of the six categories
detailed above are as follows:
A warning may or may not be given, depending
upon the severity of the situation.
Penalty Level 1 – Your opponent will be given
ball-in-hand. If the player is still shooting, or already has
ball-in-hand, then that player will be allowed to shoot
until missing, and then be given ball-in-hand again.
Penalty Level 2 – Your opponent will be granted the
game. (In 9-Ball, your opponent will be granted the
game, along with points for all balls remaining on the
table.)
Penalty Level 3 – Your opponent will be granted the
match.
Penalty Level 4 – Disqualification. APA has the
absolute and final authority to make all rulings
affecting participation in the APA Team
Championship programs including player ability
(i.e., correction of skill levels) and disqualification.
Disqualification from this event for any reason will
mean forfeiture of all titles, awards, prize money,
and minimum two-year suspension from the
League. Disqualification can occur prior to, during,
or after the event.
Note: If the violation or disturbance that caused the initial
penalty level to be levied does not cease, the Tournament
Director and/or designated assistant has the right to go
from one penalty level to the next penalty level
immediately.
Dress Code
The Tournament Director determines any dress code violations. Any person deemed by
the Tournament Director to be in violation of the dress code will be asked to leave the
tournament room and return in proper attire prior to participating. No match will be
delayed due to dress code violations. Do not take a chance on forfeiting a match due to
a dress code violation.
You are competing in one of the most prestigious amateur tournaments in the
sport of pool. Please be aware that this event attracts local and national media
attention. Radio and television media, as well as local newspaper and national
sports magazine reporters, are becoming increasingly interested in the sport of pool
and some of these people may only appear to be spectators in the crowd. Expect
you will be taped for televised segments of sports news, amateur tournament videos, or
you may be professionally photographed at any time during the event. Be prepared by
dressing appropriately.
Please do your part to enhance the image of our sport by adhering to this dress code.

Requesting a Referee
Referees are not active participants in a match. This
means Referees will not presume that a particular shot
might result in a bad hit or any other condition that could
produce a foul, and will not make calls or rulings, unless
officially requested to do so. Referees are typically
assigned to more than one table at any given time, but
even in those cases when only one table is involved, the
following procedures must be followed:
1. In most instances, a Referee will not enter the playing
area unless the match has been temporarily halted by
a TEAM CAPTAIN, COACH, or CURRENT MATCH
PLAYER. You halt a match by calling a REFEREE TIMEOUT, which allows time for the Referee to get into
position to view the upcoming shot. No coaching is
allowed during this period. The Referee’s decision is
final. Do not simply look over at the Referee, or ask the
Referee to watch the hit, expecting some action to be
taken. You must first halt the match and request the
Referee to make a call or ruling. Teams are not allowed
to use the REFEREE TIME-OUT in an untimely manner,
or in situations that are obviously non-essential. Teams
that abuse the use of the Referees are subject to loss
of time-outs. Using a REFEREE TIME-OUT as a means
to shark opponents will not be tolerated.
For example:
a. You ask the Referee to “just watch what happens
next”.
b. Your opponent is shooting at a loose ball and no
potential foul is obvious.
c. You wait until the last possible second to call the
REFEREE TIME-OUT. If the player strokes the
shot, the call automatically goes to the shooter.
Remember it is the responsibility of the TEAM, not the
Referee, to be aware of potential infractions. Study the
table situation and call a REFEREE TIME-OUT if you believe
an infraction is likely to occur. The Referees are here to
help you.
2. Contested plays are handled by calling a REFEREE
TIME-OUT, and asking the Referee if he or she was
watching the table at that time, and was in a good
enough position to make a call or ruling. If yes, the
Referee will make a binding call.
3. Situations involving potential rule violations are also
handled by calling a REFEREE TIME-OUT. If necessary,
the National Rules will be checked. The Floor Manager
and/or Tournament Director may also be called in to
render a decision.
4. Situations not requiring calls or rulings may be brought
to the attention of the Referee by TEAM CAPTAINS
ONLY. No other member of the team is allowed to ask
for Referee assistance in these non-playing situations.
If the request is reasonable, the Referee will monitor
the situation and take appropriate action. If the
problem cannot be solved to everyone’s satisfaction,
the match will be temporarily halted, the Floor Manager
and/or Tournament Director will be called, and the
parties involved will discuss the issue.
Please treat the Referees with courtesy and respect.
These APA League members have volunteered for this
duty in order to make your competition more enjoyable.
Players or teams treating Referees in a disrespectful,
demeaning or uncooperative manner are subject to
disqualification by the Tournament Director.
Match Time Guidelines
The APA has established guidelines to limit match play time in an effort to produce a
tournament that adheres to a schedule that is productive and enjoyable for all participants.
We have a full schedule of rounds that must be completed in a timely manner. We strive to
offer the best environment and playing conditions for our participants, while fulfilling our
obligations to the tournament facility.
The guidelines we have set are more than adequate for tournament status play; in most
cases actual match play will take less than the time allotted. Please be courteous; long
matches are exhausting to all the players. We ask for good sportsmanship in keeping to the
schedule. Your cooperation will help make this tournament fun and exciting for everyone!

National Championships Rules
NO EARPHONES – It is not permissible to wear earphones
of any type during Tournament play. This includes ear buds,
headphones, headsets, Bluetooth devices, etc.
PRACTICE TIME – Practice is not allowed on any
tournament table, except during specified periods, and only
with the permission of the Tournament Director. You are
encouraged to practice on all tables designated for that
purpose, and are asked to share the practice tables with any
other contestants who wish to use them. Generally
speaking, a 10 or 15 minute time limit is advised for any one
or two individuals using the practice table, if other
contestants are waiting. Any table designated as a practice
table during the event should be reserved for those
contestants who have not yet been eliminated from the
tournament. Practice is not allowed on tournament tables
during play, even though a table may not be in use during
short periods.
CELL PHONE USE – During the shooter’s turn at the table,
NO GAMBLING – Gambling is not permitted and will not be
allowed at any League function. Therefore, League members
are not permitted to gamble at the tournament site, even
following elimination from the tournament. Any contestant
involved with gambling risks disqualification from the
tournament and forfeiture of all awards and prize money.
BEVERAGES – Hotel regulations prohibit coolers or outside
beverages in hotel ballrooms. Beer and other beverages are
available. Please do not bring in coolers or outside
beverages. Glass beverage containers are prohibited in
Tournament rooms.
FORFEIT TIME – Forfeits will be determined 15 minutes
after a match has been called. If a team has registered for
the tournament, every effort will be made to locate the team
before a forfeit is declared. The Tournament Director
determines when a match is officially forfeited.
SUDDEN DEATH FORMAT – When the Sudden Death
format is in effect, all other League rules apply to player
selection. We ask all players to help keep to the schedule by
being ready to play when their match is called, and by
observing the Match Time Guidelines.
8-Ball Sudden Death – This format is implemented 3 hours
and 45 minutes into an 8-Ball match. Each team match
must be in the 5th individual match by the 3-hours-and-45minutes mark, or all subsequent matches become a one
game race.
9-Ball Sudden Death – This format is implemented 3 hours
into a 9-Ball match. Each team match must be in the 5th
individual match by the 3-hours mark, or all subsequent
matches will consist of all points earned being doubled. Each
object ball pocketed will count as 2 points and the 9-ball will
count as 4 points.
DECLARING PLAYERS – Once both teams in a match have
declared a player, the players cannot be changed unless the
23/19 Rule is in jeopardy.
COACHING – A player may be coached only once per game.
If a coach suggests a time-out to the player, the time-out
must be taken. However, if a player asks for a time-out, the
coach can refuse to take it and no time-out will be charged.
Mark all coaches (time-outs) with a “T” on your scoresheet.
Coaches are allowed to place the cue ball (during a coaching
time-out) in a ball-in-hand situation. All rules regarding
fouling the cue ball apply to the coach when placing the cue
ball for a player.
NOTE: Common players and Ineligible players are not
allowed to participate as coaches.
CHECKING PLAYER IDENTIFICATION – A current picture
I.D. is required! All tournament participants must present a
24
current, certified, positive picture I.D. in the form of a state
I.D. from their state of residence, a military I.D. or a passport,
prior to competing in the event. Your I.D. must be available
for review prior to competing in each match. If you do not
have a proper picture I.D., you will not be allowed to play. In
all Higher Level Tournament events it would be considered
standard procedure for good sportsmanship if, at the
beginning of each match, contestants provided proper
identification to their opponents before shaking hands. Each
player in a match at a Higher Level Tournament event should
be satisfied with the identity of their opponent in the match.
If a player does not have their I.D. at that time, the team will
forfeit that individual match and the use of that player for the
remainder of the match. The opponent remains eligible to
play in a later match; however, the team must show it can
stay within the 23-Rule by using a remaining player on the
roster. If a player(s) neglects to ask an opponent for proper
identification prior to the lag at the beginning of their match,
and the identity of the opponent becomes questionable after
a game is in progress, the only option is to finish the current
game, then ask for a tournament official to verify the
opponent’s identification before continuing the match. The
Tournament Director is the only person who can make a
judgment on any form of I.D. in question and will decide what
course of action will be taken concerning the identity of the
player in question.
IMPERSONATING A PLAYER – The entire team of a
player who enters or participates under fraudulent
circumstances will be disqualified.
SCOREKEEPING – Scoresheets with innings recorded and
defensive shots marked must be kept by a member of both
teams or by an official scorekeeper. If it is determined that a
team is not marking defensive shots, then the National
Handicap Review Committee may arbitrarily raise some or all
skill levels of players on that team. Scoresheets must be
signed and turned in to the Control Table to receive credit for
match wins. Refusal to sign a scoresheet does not affect any
match protest. It is the responsibility of the winning team to
make sure the Control Table receives proper scoresheets.
8-Ball Only – Please mark Early 8’s (E8), 8-ball Scratches
(8S), 8-on-the-Breaks (8OB) and Break-and-Runs (BR) on
your scoresheets. Patches for 8-on-the-Break and Breakand-Runs are awarded—and must be claimed by the Team
Captain—at the Control Table when the scoresheets are
turned in for processing.
9-Ball Only – When one team reaches 51 points, the match
is over. Do not finish out that individual match; simply mark
on the scoresheet Not Finished (NF). Please make sure you
mark all balls pocketed, dead balls, Break-and-Runs (BR)
and 9-on-the-Snaps (9OS). Patches for 9-on-the-Snap
and Break-and-Runs are awarded—and must be claimed
by the Team Captain—at the Control Table when the
scoresheets are turned in for processing.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Any team caught fraudulently keeping
score—adding innings, altering scoresheets in any way, etc.—
is subject to disqualification.
DRESS CODE – Proper attire must be worn at all times in
and around the tournament site. The Tournament Director
shall determine what is proper attire, and is responsible for
requiring the change of improper attire on the part of any
contestant. Any change of improper attire is not just cause
for delay in the progress of a team match. Refer to the
Tournament Dress Code on page 21 to learn what is
considered proper attire. The dress code will be enforced.
cell phone use is prohibited for that player.
NO SMOKING – Smoking is not permitted within the
tournament room.
GAME RULES – APA game rules apply. Any and all Local
Bylaw(s) or interpretation(s) which are not in full accord with
the National Rules established by the APA do not apply to
your participation in the National event. It is your
responsibility to know what is a National Rule (or standard),
and what is a Local Bylaw (or standard). The game rules that
will be used during your event are covered in the Official
Team Manual. You should be familiar with these rules.
SKILL LEVELS – The APA is the sole judge of a player’s
ability, and may at any time raise a player’s skill level if the
APA believes that he/she is not playing up to his/her true
ability. It is especially important that the skill level at which
you participate in this event reflects your true ability
according to National Rules and standards. This is your
responsibility. You are advised by the APA to make certain
that you and your teammates fully understand and
conscientiously follow all of the National rules and standards.
If you determine you or one of your teammates skill level is
not accurate, then you must notify your League Operator or
Tournament Director prior to entering and playing in the
event. Doing so will not necessarily prevent your
disqualification; it will, however, help in determining your
eligibility status.
FOULS – Fouls may be called by the player or by his/her
coach. It should be kept in mind, since everybody on the
team may communicate with the coach, that in effect,
anyone on the team may call a foul, but only a call made by
the coach or the player makes it official. Each player is
advised before taking ball-in-hand, to make certain you
actually have ball-in-hand. If you do not confirm ball-in-hand
with your opponent, or with Tournament Officials, and there
is a difference of opinion, then you subject yourself to the
potential costly mistake of fouling the cue ball unknowingly.
CUE BALL FOULS – The cue ball is always alive. Do not
touch the cue ball while it is still rolling. Doing so may result
in a foul.
CLOSE SHOTS – If a shot looks like it may result in a “bad
hit,” stop the game and get a Tournament Official to make the
call. Either player may stop the game to ask for a call. The
decision of the Tournament Official is final. If a shot is close
and a Tournament Official is not called, the ruling will have a
tendency to be in the shooter’s favor.
MARK THE 8-BALL (8-Ball Only) – A coaster, pocket
marker or any other reasonable marker must be placed by
the pocket the 8-ball is intended to enter. (To avoid
confusion, we do not recommend marking the pocket with
chalk.) If a player pockets the 8-ball without marking the
intended pocket, and the opponent calls loss of game, it will
result in a loss of game. Both players may use the same
marker. Only one marker should be on the table. However,
if more than one marker is on the table, as long as you clearly
mark the pocket where you intend to pocket the 8-ball you
have properly marked the pocket. If the marker is already at
the intended pocket from a previous attempt or game, it is
not necessary for the shooter to touch it, pick it up, or
reposition it. Anyone may remind a player to place the
marker and it will not be considered coaching or a foul.
THE 23-RULE – The 23-Rule will be enforced. No team may
play five players whose combined skill levels exceed 23. In
6/27/11
11:15 AM
Page 25
addition, a team must show that it could have fielded a legal
team (meaning it could have fielded 5 players that did not
exceed 23) if the match had gone the entire 5 individual
matches. If the total skill levels of the lowest five players
listed on your roster is equal to or less than 23, then your
team can meet the 23-Rule. This means that a team may not
lead off with three players whose skill levels add up to 19
unless there are two 2’s listed on the roster. A team may not
try to win with its first three players and disregard the 23Rule. All the above applies to the Ladies Division except that
it concerns the 19-Rule instead of the 23-Rule.
decided by the performance of the two teams in the first
three matches. The team that won two out of the first three
matches is determined the winner and advances to the next
round of the tournament.
expected that each player arrived hoping to do well, and all
players will be doing their best to win. On the other hand,
each player is also expected to accept defeat in a
sportsmanlike manner.
9-Ball Only – What happens if a team match ends
50-50? Championship matches will be scored the same as
weekly play, except individual forfeits will be worth 20 points
(instead of 15). The first team to reach 51 points is the
winner. In case of a tie at the end of the match of 50 to 50
match points, the number of individual matches won by each
team would break the tie.
What happens if a team is unable to comply
with the 23-Rule?
TEAM DISQUALIFICATION PROCEDURE – If Higher Level
Tournament play is to be truly meaningful and rewarding, then
those who play below their true ability must be penalized.
Two common violations of good sportsmanship are
conceding an unfinished game and undoing a cue during
play. Both forms of conduct are frowned upon by
professionals, and should be eliminated from amateur play.
All players are asked to allow opponents to finish the game
before racking the balls or undoing cues. No penalty will be
assessed unless, in the opinion of the Tournament Director, a
repeated violation of this conduct rule occurs.
If the total skill levels of the lowest five players listed on the
roster exceed 23, the team will have to play four players
whose skill levels do not exceed 19 in the Open Division (16
in the Ladies Division) and forfeit the fifth match. If the skill
levels of the lowest four players on the roster exceed 19, then
they can play three players to 15 (13 in the Ladies Division)
and forfeit the fourth and fifth matches.
FORFEITING MATCHES – Individual matches may be
forfeited at any time during a team match. If the individual
match is forfeited after the rack has been broken in that
match, the skill level of both players in the match will count
towards the 23-Rule (19-Rule in the Ladies Division). If the
individual match is forfeited before the rack has been broken
in that match, the player on the team receiving the forfeit
remains eligible to play again as the forfeit does not count as
a match played. Both teams must be able to show at the end
of the team match they could have fielded a legal team,
meaning they could have fielded five players that did not
exceed 23 (19 in Ladies Division) had all five individual
matches been played. For example: if the opposing team
puts up a SL7, your team cannot forfeit using an unavailable
player so your opponent can’t play their SL7. The opposing
team would regain the use of their SL7 as long as they can
show that they can still remain within the 23-Rule had all five
individual matches been played.
INELIGIBLE PLAYERS – Ineligible players are those
players who, for whatever reason, are not eligible to play in
any match during this tournament. All ineligible players will
be removed from the Higher Level Tournament roster and will
not count for 23-Rule purposes in the 8-Ball and 9-Ball Open
Divisions or 19-Rule purposes in the 8-Ball Ladies Division.
NOTE: Ineligible players are not allowed to participate
as a coach.
SENIOR SKILL LEVEL PLAYERS (9-Ball Only) – Only
two senior skill level players may play in any given team
match. Senior skill level players are those players who have
a skill level of 6, 7, 8 or 9.
COMMON PLAYERS AT THE NATIONAL LEVEL – A
common player is defined as a player on more than one
team. A team may have up to two players that are common
with another team in the same format at the National Level
of the Team Championships. A player may be common on up
to two teams in each format at the National Level of the Team
Championships. This means a player may qualify on up to
two 8-Ball Open Division teams, two 9-Ball Open Division
teams and two 8-Ball Ladies Division teams (ladies only, of
course). If you qualify on more than two teams in any format,
you must choose which team rosters you will stay on prior to
entering the National Level of the Championships. Common
players are not allowed to participate as a coach.
NOTE: Matches will not be held up for players who are
participating on multiple teams.
TIE BREAKERS – 8-Ball Only – What happens if a team
match ends 2-2? If it is time for the fifth match and neither
team has an eligible player present to play, the match is
Complaints of unsportsmanlike conduct, or any evidence of a
player playing at a skill level below his/her true ability, should
be reported immediately to the Tournament Director.
In order to conduct a fair and equal tournament for all APA
players, APA must ensure that all participants are playing at
skill levels that are not below their true ability. Handicap
manipulation compromises the fairness and integrity of
tournament play and cannot be tolerated. Accordingly, the
APA may disqualify any player or team if, in APA’s sole
judgment and absolute discretion, one or more of its players
are deemed by APA to be playing at a skill level below their
true ability. The determination of whether a player is playing
at a skill level below his or her true ability is necessarily
subjective; APA is the sole judge of a player’s ability and may
make such a determination in its absolute judgment and
discretion.
A National Handicap Review Committee, consisting of APA
National staff members, League Operators, and APA National
Tournament Directors has been formed to review the
performance of each player after every round of play and
make skill level adjustments as necessary. They will also
investigate complaints and review elevated skill levels to
determine the eligibility status of the players. Players may be
disqualified at any time during or after tournament play if the
committee concludes the player has, without justification,
played at a skill level below their true ability. It is up to the
disqualified player to provide an explanation or justification
for the elevated skill level.
PROTESTS – The Team Captain must make all protests to
the Tournament Director in a sportsmanlike manner. There
is a $50.00 filing fee for any protest, which is refundable if
the team filing wins the protest. Any team disrupting the
tournament, causing a scene, or causing other problems at
or around the tournament site will lose the right to protest.
The Tournament Director will resolve all issues on the spot.
The APA is the highest authority. Any rulings made by the
APA are final.
RULES OF CONDUCT – Read the Rules of Conduct. Make
sure you understand the penalty level system. It is designed
to stop a problem while it is still a small problem. The Rules
of Conduct may be used by the Tournament Director or
designated Tournament Official at any Higher Level
Tournament event for any form of misconduct.
WARNINGS – If a warning is given in an individual match,
that warning will follow the team throughout the remainder
of the event. For example, if a player is warned for sharking
their opponent, and in a subsequent match a player from that
same team is warned for sharking their opponent, the result
will be ball-in-hand for the opponent. Such warnings will be
noted by a Tournament Official on the scoresheets.
SPORTSMANSHIP – The primary objective of the League
has always been to provide players of all abilities with the fun
and enjoyment of friendly competition. Naturally it is
Another area of good sportsmanship concerns fouls. A foul
is a foul and should be observed as such. Occasionally, a
player feels that a foul is a foul only if he gets caught.
Generally speaking, a professional player will call a foul on
himself. Likewise, good sportsmanship in the amateur
ranks requires a player to admit a mistake, and live with the
consequences. However, it is technically a player’s
responsibility to protect the outcome of his match. Pay
attention to your game.
A Sportsmanship Award is given at the end of each event
(8-Ball Open Division, 8-Ball Ladies Division, 9-Ball Open
Division and all Preregistered events.). You may vote for
teams by making comments on the back of your scoresheet
or by using the Team Nomination form included with this
Event Program, and submitting it to the Control Table.
Additional forms are available at the Control Table, if needed.
EQUIPMENT REGULATIONS – In general, any piece of
equipment designed specifically for pocket billiards, with the
exception of jump cues and laser devices, is acceptable in
APA Tournament play. Special equipment, such as bridges
and cue extenders, are legal. You may change cues during a
game. Jump shots are legal, when executed properly, but
such shots must be attempted with a regular shooting cue*.
Players are not allowed to break their cue sticks down and
use just the shaft to attempt jump shots. Specialty cues, such
as break cues** and jump cues, may not be used to perform
jump shots***.
*Any standard pool cue used to shoot the majority of shots in
a match.
**Any cue specifically designed for breaking. This does not
include regular shooting cues used for breaking.
***Any piece of equipment not covered by this rule and in
question will be ruled upon by APA. Cues with moveable parts
will generally NOT be allowed.
Any equipment bearing any message or image of a sexually
explicit or political nature, or a message or image which may
be offensive due to the use of profanity or by virtue of its
promotion of violence, alcoholism or substance abuse, shall
be prohibited from use in all APA events. The Tournament
Director shall be the enforcing authority of this regulation.
The Tournament Director shall have the right to inspect a
player’s cue(s) at any time during a tournament without prior
notice to the player, and if the cue(s) are found to be in
violation of this regulation, the player shall immediately
cease using the objectionable cue during tournament play, or
face immediate disqualification and forfeiture of all prize
money earned and/or entry fee paid.
DISQUALIFICATION – APA has the absolute and final
authority to make all rulings affecting participation in the
APA Team Championship programs including player ability
(i.e., correction of skill levels) and disqualification.
Disqualification from this event for any reason will mean
forfeiture of all titles, awards, prize money, and minimum
two year suspension from the League. Disqualification
can occur prior to, during, or after the event.

Sportsmanship...
The Key to a Successful Event
APA Leagues are about the excitement of competition, but more importantly, they’re about
fun. We want all of our members who compete in our National Championship events to
have the experience of a lifetime. An important ingredient in that experience is good
sportsmanship among our members. Sportsmanship is the key to the success of weekly
APA League play and APA national tournaments.
We realize the level of competition you experience in our National Championship will be
unlike that in which you may have experienced before. But please don’t let your competitive
fire overshadow the level of sportsmanship you express to your opponent.
Be sure to introduce yourself to your opponent, provide your ID, shake his hand and wish
him luck before a match. If your opponent makes a great shot, don’t be shy about telling
him so. More importantly, if your opponent makes a bad shot or a mistake during
the match, don’t openly celebrate his misfortune.
An easy way to exhibit good sportsmanship is by simply putting yourself in your opponent’s
position. If you were to scratch, or sink the 8-ball out-of-turn, how would you feel if your
opponent cheered or clapped? A more appropriate response might be, “Tough break,” or
simply saying nothing at all. Win or lose, thank your opponent after the match and, once
again, shake his hand.
Remember that everyone who qualifies to compete in a national championship is already
a winner and a champion, so be sure to treat them as such!

Attention Players
Pool takes precedence
over smoking!
Please remember we have timelines set in place
in order to make the event run in a timely
manner.
Holding up matches to take smoke
breaks not only delays your match, but all of the
matches following yours. We will not tolerate
matches held up because teams/players are not
in the arena due to taking smoke breaks. Players
caught taking their scoresheets outside of the
Tournament Room, or delaying their match for
such breaks will result in a forfeiture of their
match. Team Captains must be responsible for
their players during match times.
This rule applies for all APA National Events.
