 | UK to host European qualifier for $2m IPT North American Open |
International Pool Tour North American 8-Ball Open Championship Qualifier IPT Qualifier Entry Form www.internationalpooltour.com Download the Word File
23-25 June 2006
 Click the picture to download the sign-up forms!
This is one of only two chances to qualify in Europe for a share of the $2,000,000 prize fund on offer at the IPT North American 8-Ball Open Championship
The 25 locations for qualifiers have been announced and the only two European qualifiers are NA-09 and NA-24... The first is in Switzerland and the second is will be at a venue in the UK.
Entry fees need to be paid in advance (absolutely no entries are accepted on the day) so download the forms from here and ensure a spot in one of the limited fields for the IPT North American Open Qualifiers being held in Europe.
Remember, over $2 million dollars in prize money will be earned by the 200 players, $350,000 for first place, but more importantly last place will win $2,000!!!
This is a Pro9.co.uk promotion. Please only download the forms if you are happy to accept www.pro9.co.uk as your referrer. If this is unacceptable then you'll need to find an alternative source as these forms are specifically for www.pro9.co.uk and must not be altered. We've tried our best to simplify the process as much as possible by providing a Microsoft Word file that can be printed, then filled in with a pen and faxed or posted to the IPT, and you can use the same form to enter ANY of the IPT North American Open qualifiers. Please support Pro9.co.uk... To date, and to the best of our knowledge, we are the only web site offering this information in Europe... Remember, you saw it here FIRST!!!

 | Phil Capelle - An Uncelebrated Genius! |
PHILIP B. CAPELLE Play Your Best Pool £25.99 Delivered FREE in the UK www.amazon.co.uk www.pro9.co.uk Pool Library

Play Your Best Pool
When people ask me about a good book to read to improve their game I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in recommending "Phil Capelle's - Play Your Best Pool" to anyone I meet, no matter what their ability.
The book covers everything from the blindingly obvious and basic things like grip and stance to the ultra-subtle nuances that you thought nobody else noticed. This book, suitable for absolute beginners and the very advanced and proficient player alike, honestly, it's all explained in a friendly fashion, that keeps you paying attention without suffering from information overload... And that's the best secret weapon this book has... It's so cleverly written that you enjoy reading and learning.
Not patronising, but informative, whatever level of ability you play, this book CAN help your game!
I'd love to meet the man himself, perhaps play a game, because he surely is a very special kind of genius.

I have been ordering cues from Wayne for a number of years now and his profile has recently shot through the roof on the announcement that he will be taking a well earned break after this current batch of cues. Wayne very kindly took time out to do this interview for all the folk at Pro9……

 | Rule Britannia on the Costa Del Sol |
II Costa del Sol “Pool 51” Championship Benalmádena Malaga Spain
29-30 April 2006
 The winners (from L to R) Kevin Jenkins, Chris Melling, Senen Alvarez, Steve Ringsell, Mark Jacob, Eduardo Guillen, Paul Lennox
II Costa del Sol “Pool 51” Championship
The weekend of 29th and 30th April saw the second running of this tournament in Benalmádena, Malaga.
This sport generally known as 8 Ball in the UK is referred to in Spain as Pool 51 because of the size of the balls (51 mm) and thus distinguishes the game from the more popular game of American 8 Ball.
