2012 Junior Nationals

By now all ACTEBA members should be aware that ACT is again hosting a national 8ball titles. Following on from our success in 2009 with the senior event, next week we will host the best junior 8ball players in Australia as they seek an Australian title. The juniors are from all states and territories in Australia, and addition to seeking the title for team play, there will be individual titles in U12, U15 and U18 on offer. The event starts on the afternoon of Sun 15 January 2012 and goes through to Sat 21 January 2012. The event is being hosted at the Harmonie Club of Canberra in Narrabundah. Matches run all day and start around 9am finishing around 5pm. I encourage anyone who can attend to drop in and watch some great pool and cheer on the ACT Team. Previous ACT Juniors include Nicole Welsh, Dean Welsh, Matt Harmon and Steve Woods. The junior competition is where our future stars can be found.

ACT retains a fantastic record when it comes to refereeing I would like this to continue.If anyone can umpire a few games (and get the best seat in the house for the match) that would be greatly appreciated.

To date the organising committee in conjunciton with the AEBF committee have arranged the majority of the details. However we are down to the physical end and we will need people to assist in setting the room up on Sat 14 January. Exact timings to follow but any assistance would be appreciated. There may also be a need for some assistance at the presentation night on Sat 21 January.
