APN-Leagues National Championships

You are cordially invited to the APN-Leagues National Championships, to be held at Rileys Harrow on the 5th, 6th and 7th January 2007. Rileys Harrow have already hosted a number of successful APN-League events and we are extremely pleased to be returning to this excellent North London club for our National Finals.

As well as the main event, APN will be hosting a number of smaller tournaments and competitions so even if you are not on the qualified players list (see below) – it’s still worth turning up as there’ll be plenty to do!

Friday night is optional. Kicking off at around 7pm £5/man flyers are the order of the evening together with some scotch doubles action (£10/team) and perhaps some ring games – players willing!

"Read More..." for the details.

Saturday and Sunday is the main event, the APN National Handicapped 9-Ball League Championships. Running parallel to this event will be a number of smaller open tournaments à la Friday night, so again plenty to keep you busy if you are not playing a match at the time. These flyers will be open to all players and spectators (qualified or not).

Remember there is no entry fee for the National Championships themselves, but make sure to bring a bit of spare cash as the action will come thick and fast on the outside tables. The main event will be handicapped (see below with player list).
