The NZPA regretfully announce the cancellation of the 2008 Trans Tasman 8-Ball and 9-Ball teams Test Match which was to be hosted by the ACBS in April.  The decision to cancel was not made lightly, and was due to the APPF being unable to field a women’s team.

It is agreed that this is a sad and unfortunate situation especially as this also occurred in 2006.  It is hoped that the NZPA and APPF can work together to secure the Test Match or a similar prestigious event in the future.

The Trans Tasman 9-Ball event is still scheduled to be played 18-20 April and we hope to see many players there as this is always a great event.

Unfortunately the Northern Area chose to run their singles and pairs tournaments on the same weekend, when the weekend either side there was nothing on that would have clashed! Continue reading »

A small but very competitive fields of eight in the 8-Ball and five in the 9-Ball. There were some excellent clearances in both tournaments.

It was pleasing to see a few parents and friends along to watch. We are struggling to maintain a larger number of participants in our Junior tournaments.

One of the effects of the liquor law requirements in making all pool rooms have an on-licence instead of an entertainment licence means that rooms can no longer have under 18-year-olds on the premises under any circumstances and this is having a big effect on young people finding a venue for them to participate in cue sport events.
