 The Total9Ball Open Weekender Festival of Pool Today is the day that T9B announces its first Open Weekender Event. Players of all standards are invited to join us for a selection of events that will run through Saturday and Sunday. Mark Parker and myself Phil Wildman have worked very hard to put a weekend package together rammed full of events to encourage players of all standards to come and compete in the sport we love, there really is something for everyone. Below is a list of events that will take place over the weekend and a brief description for each:  The Main Event – 9ball event, Double elimination played to the last 32/16 depending on entries. Matches race to 9 with no handicaps.  The Shark Shield – 10ball Event Open to players rated -5 to -1 ability. Straight Knockout. No handicaps. Matches race to 8 racks The Minnows Medal – 10 ball event open to players rated 0 to +3. One/two rack handicap will be awarded where needed to keep things fair. Matches race to 7, There will be no big fish in the small pond!!!!  Blind Scotch Doubles – 9ball event, straight knockout event, players are drawn before each round therefore you will have a different partner in each round. Its random anyone can win  One Important rack. – 9ball one rack shootout. Straight knock-out until the last 8/16 (depending on numbers) at which point the event becomes a last man standing event all names in a bag. Draw who will be unlucky… the first drawn will have to beat the remaining field to cash. The last drawn will have to just win one rack to scoop the cash. It’s like a Royal Rumble of pool  The Break Dish – This is a separate event tickets will be on sale its £5 for three tickets or £10 for 10 tickets. Buy as many as you like to increase your chances of getting drawn. Each ball is given a value and there is a bonus for the clearance. After each shoot its decision time! stop and collect or carry on. Players will continue getting draw until the pot is small at that point the pot will be added to the events. I really do think this event has everything and caters for all players with 9ball, 10ball, Scotch doubles, 1 rack shoot-out, break dish, some events anybody can win while others will be determined by true skill. HOW MUCH??? £100 for Shark Shield players (plus £5 for non T9B members) £75 for Minnow Medal players (Plus £5 for non T9B Members) All this action works out to less than £26 per event for a weekend full of pool and excitement, This is a great chance to meet new people and celebrate the sport we love. Players are responsible for booking their own hotel if needed. T9B can recommend The Quality Hotel as its nice and only a short walk from the club So, if you work weekends you now have time to book it off for this great weekend festival!! 1 Mark Parker 2 Phil Wildman 3 Terry Challenger 4 John Woolston 5 Brian Cassidy 6 Ashik Nathwani 7 Courtney Symons 8 Rich Twomey 9 Benji Buckley 10 Lionel Brown 11 Imran Majid 12 Andrew Danks 13 Matt Hawthorne 14 Jaspal Bamotra 15 Nathan Virica 16 Kevin Moyles 17 Russell Thomas 18 Tommy Donlon 19 Gary Bullocke 20 Steve Davison 21 Jason Rosser 22 Craig Osborne 23 Tom Staveley 24 Jon Butterworth 25 Jon Davies 26 Sam Sherwood 27 28 29 30 31 32 [ This message was edited by: essex_pantha on 2014-09-18 22:39 ]

Rich that's not a helpful comment. If you don't want to play don't play but don't keep putting stupid comments up... why not spend your wasted time promoting instead of slagging it off? [ This message was edited by: wildman147 on 2014-08-21 14:48 ]

Just when we thought this weekend of events couldn't get any better. T9B announces we have struck a deal with matchroom and have 4 pairs of tickets to the World Cup Of Pool Final to give away. Make sure you get your names down to find out how you can win them
