But... please review your membership form, rules and first press release. They sound amateurish and could be worded a lot more eloquently.
It's important that if you're going to be the face of American Pool within Britain that you do it right.
A little professionalism in how the BPF comes across wouldn't go a miss rather than it sounding like you're recruiting for the boy scouts or setting up a computer club in school.
Other than that this is probably the best news in a long time for American Pool in Britain.
Good luck.

On the plus side, I think the logo looks very professional don't you Danny? www.pro9.co.uk/html/article.php?sid=2005...And you can even apply for a free/non playing membership now too, which should make a lot of people happy too! Good luck to them I say! -----------------  Authorised Pro9 forum advertiser/sponsor [ This message was edited by: BigDave on 2012-07-12 09:21 ]

If you remember that this is being ran by pool players with (I'm guessing) little to no experience in marketing or PR then I think theyve done a great job. I think it looks more professional than some of the ABP press releases and I think Ricardo is doing a great thing by setting this up with others. I hope that we can get more women/children into the game because I think its a travesty that hardly any play the game. At least at competition level.

Hi all, For various reasons it's been ages since I posted, glad to be back! Anyway, this is great news IMO. Also, is there a contact email for Richard or the Federation? I have tried the info@... email, but received a bounce-back. Thanks in advance. [ This message was edited by: OJD on 2012-07-12 14:45 ]
