This Saturday, December 5th, sees the End of Season Doubles Trophy Tournament being hosted by JJ's and Fat Albert's.
Signups will be in JJ's (the old Manhattan) from 3-3:45pm and play will begin in both venues as close to 4pm as possible.
Itaewon Pool League members can compete free of charge if they have played 5 or more weeks in the regular season.
Trophies will be awarded to pairs finishing in the top 3 places.
This tournament is seeded so a higher ranked player will be paired with a lower ranked player to negate any superhero pairings. Players will gain or lose ranking points depending on their performance during the tournament.
I hope to see many of you there on Saturday.
Special Message: JJ has very generously offered a 20% discount at his new bar (JJ's) to all pool league members on Wednesday nights for the foreseeable future. This discount is also available this Saturday during the tournament.

We will have an extra captains' meeting this Sunday, November 29th at 2pm in Scrooge Pub.
This meeting will decide the format the league wants to run with next season. We have come up with 3 proposals (including one along the lines of the current system) that will be discussed, explored, ratified and packaged into a perfect system that will keep all teams happy (hopefully).
This meeting is very important to the future of the league and we would really appreciate it if every captain would make the effort to show up and share their ideas before voting. After the vote the captains can all head off to their various playoff dates.
