Reigning US Open Champion Darren Appleton of England and Team USA Captain Charlie Williams pair up to honor past and present active military at the Predator Armed Forces Appreciation Pool School Show on May 21, 2012. Dragon Promotions and Predator Cues will bring the popular school and show experience to Los Angeles at the nationally renown Hard Times Billiards. The highly successful Predator Pro Challenge & School continues its tour through some of the most popular pool and billiards towns throughout the country. This duo of top caliber skill and charismatic characters will be appearing before avid players, amateurs, and pro-pool hopefuls from all around California. There will be a chance for fans to learn, meet, and play the two world class pros! Where the daytime school has a nominal cost, the evening show is absolutely free to attend and brought to you by Simonis Cloth and Master Chalk.
"Predator always tries its utmost best to provide services and opportunities for players and people from all walks of life. As Memorial Day approaches, we can't think of a better way than to show thanks to the women and men who serve, or have served, the United States of America. They keep our country safe. Darren and Charlie, two of Predator's best representatives, will deliver a great experience to military and civilian enthusiasts alike," said John Forrester, Chairman of Predator Group.

Big Changes ahead for Snooker

The 2012 BetFred.com World Snooker Championships The Crucible Theatre 55 Norfolk Street Sheffield S1 1DA www.betfred.com www.worldsnooker.com
21 April - 7 May 2012

 Ronnie O'Sullivan - 2012 BetFred.com World Snooker Champion All photography ©John-Patrick Fletcher - used by Pro9 with express permission. Big Changes ahead for Snooker
Having defeated Ali Carter 18-11, Ronnie O'Sullivan has now won the World Snooker Championships four times. In doing so he officially moves into the elite group of snooker players in history where his fans have always believed he belongs. It has been a long road for Ronnie to get here when you consider his various personal issues during a career spanning eighteen seasons at the very top of the game. A harsh critic may say four World Titles is underperforming for Ronnie, such is the genius of his talent. He has been in four finals, winning all of them. Regardless of how many titles he could have won he now holds a haul of World Titles that matches his impact on the baize. Well done to him.
The subplot to the World Snooker Championships was the changes about to hit the game. The World Snooker Championships at The Crucible, lauded every year by the nostalgic TV commentary team of past top professionals such as Ken Doherty, Dennis Taylor, Willie Thorne, John Virgo, Stephen Hendry, Neal Foulds and Steve Davis was the only tournament not tweaked by World Snooker supremo Barry Hearn as he looks to have the impact of snooker that he had on the PDC Darts, which has enjoyed a renaissance under his control. So far one frame shootout tournaments where there is one prize, Powerplay Snooker and shortened tournament formats have been introduced to freshen up Snookers appeal.
Next season, the changes continue with a fifty week season containing twenty six tournaments. Rankings will be decided not by points, but by prize money. It is a far cry from a season consisting of six ranking tournaments across the year where the players who were in the top sixteen were highly liked to remain in there. Breaking into the elite top sixteen was difficult and rarely achieved. The same players won tournament after tournament and the game was structured to heavily reward those at the top. There was no strength in depth in terms of tour quality and it showed with little movement for a generation in terms of the regular players we watched on television.

BWPPA Ranking Event No.2 - The Dynamic Midlands 9 Ball Open Rileys American Pool and Snooker - Birmingham 21-22 Essex Street Birmingham West Midlands B5 4TL www.bwppa.org www.rileys.co.uk
Saturday/Sunday 28/29 April 2012
 Tony Southern Southern takes the crown and top spot in the rankings
The BWPPA held its 2nd event of the 2012 season over the weekend of the 28th/29th April 2012 with the Dynamic Billiards Midlands 9-ball Open held at Rileys Birmingham. The tour was hit by a few absences from regular players for various reasons. Despite this, the event still attracted a strong field of 14 players, and there was some great pool on show as usual at these events.
“The Sandman” Roy Kimberley has been no 1 on the tour since it’s inception in 2004. Coming into the event he was under pressure from Tony Southern in 2nd spot, who was only 10 ranking points behind.
