Cheers Guys great start to the season for me played well all weekend, shame I didn't take this form to the Worlds with me. Only been playing with MY new Wayne cue for 5 days and already noticing a difference.
Next stop Buxton

Great way to start a new decade of wheelchair pool, biggest field the BWPPA have had in a few years. Aslam and Darren Staddon returning to wheelchair 9-ball. Think Andy did a great job as TD. Looking forward to Darlington in June.

Destroyed 7-1 !! I can't argue i missed muppet clearances in first 2 racks that my nan would have cleared (and she's been dead 10 years) so instead of being 2-0 up and putting pressure on I'm 2-0 down under pressure and 5-0 down before I wake up time to change my nickname to 'no balls' roll on buxton and gb9 I play better on that tour for some Reason

Tony,
I am having a hard time with my Scoliosis and I am in extreme pain just walking and have been for the past three weeks. I know it is off topic but if I end up having to go through an operation and it doesn't help can I get involved in wheelchair pool?

I did played very well again & got beaten by Aslam in the 1st round & Matt Gleaves the last round of loser side in the main event. In the Challenge Cup event, I was so excited in every rounds & included the final that I couldn't keep my mouth shut by saying 'C'MON...!' so loud. ----------------- C'MON...!

Hot wheels andy got a chip on his lens after taking my pic and if he'd have gone to autoglass they could have repaired it free without it costing him his excess !! Your mug turned that chip into a crack and he was knackered !!
As for the other postings I think I smell a troll at work !!

My question wasn't trolling but I am interested to hear what constitutes a disability in Pool. In the pain I have been in for the past three weeks every time I go from standing position to shooting position the spine feels like its going to snap so obviously I can't play close to what I want to. If I was in a shooting position at all times (IE - Wheelchair) I could play better. Now strictly speaking I don't need a wheelchair to play pool but in my current state I'm greatly disadvantaged without one.
