Week Three
Dear Members,
We will host our next mini-tournament and fundraiser Greased Lightning this Sunday, February 21 at the Eagle. Sign-up will be from 12:30 to 1:00 p.m. with play starting at 1. This Tournament is fast-paced. You have 15 seconds to shoot the ball with a 5 second warning. It's a very popular event and named in the memory of John Cochran, who was a long term league member, past BOG member and President.
Attention New Players: If this is your first season the league offers you a complimentary entry to participate in your first mini-tournament.
Pool Cue Raffle: At our Greased Lightning Tournament, we will be raffling a Cue Stick (donated by Kirk Hill, ...thanks Kirk) to place additional funds into our HELP Fund. This is a separate LAPL account that is utilized to assist League Members and sometimes those very connected to the LAPL who may be experiencing a difficult situation where a small amount of financial assistance might be provided.
Attention Captains: There has been a request to put together a Contact List of phone numbers of LAPL Captains that would be distributed all LAPL Captains. The purpose of this list is to provide Captains ability to contact other captains should they be experiencing an issue they need to discuss in relation to an upcoming game. i.e., running late to a game, issues with a venue or day of play change request under certain circumstances permitted by our rules. I would appreciate your assistance in providing me with your cell phone/phone number and email address. If you have an issue with this, you are not obligated to comply. You can send that here to This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. or to me personally at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.. Remember to include your name and team when you respond. Thank you for your assistance.
Shoot well and have fun.
Al Ballesteros, President
