NEW IN 2013The 37th BCAPL National Championships

If a player is unsure of his/her eligibility, he/she may send an email to Bill Stock, CSI Rules and Referee Director, request-ing approval to enter the new Leisure Division- [email protected].

Relocating the BCAPL National Cham-pionships to the larger Rio convention facility allows us to add this new divi-sion. We look at this as an opportunity to introduce more entry level pool players to “The Greatest Pool Tournament in the World!” This welcome addition demon-strates CSI’s ongoing commitment to pro-vide … More Choices for All Players.

The BCA Pool League will introduce a new division at the 2013 BCAPL National Championships, called the “Leisure Divi-sion.” It is designed to fill the gap between average league players and the better players in the Open Division. The “Leisure Division” will offer a lower entry fee ($115 which includes a $35 green fee) and a deep payout.

The Criteria for the Division:• Players who have played for 2 years in Open, Senior, or Super Senior (since 2005), and have never cashed in any Sin-gles Division are eligible.

• Players may also be eligible if they have finished a full league session in the bot-tom half of their local league, and their league is enrolled on LeagueSys. We need LeagueSys to help research player history.

• Every player will be researched for player history. The eligibility criteria above do NOT insure playing in the new division.

Known ability will be a big factor in estab-lishing eligibility for this new division.

• Players entering the Leisure Division may also enter the 2nd Chance Singles events (if eligibility criteria are met), all mini tournaments, and much more.

The purpose of this division is to give lesser skilled players (called “B” players in some states) a level playing field against players of equal ability.

For years, hundreds of players have par-ticipated in the Open division with no re-sults. We greatly appreciate their support of the BCAPL and the BCAPL National Championships and wish to give them a fair chance to truly compete and cash among similarly skilled players.

CSI Introduces the Leisure Division to the 2013 BCAPL Championships

New Green Fees Replace Table Tokens in 2013

Starting in 2013 players will no longer be required to use table tokens to play at the BCAPL or USAPL National Championships!

Instead, a green fee will be applied to the entry fee of each division a player enters (please view the entry forms for the spe-cific green fee for each event).

Below are a few of the benefits of this policy change:1. No more need to carry heavy tokens.2. No more running to the token machine before matches.3. No more need to cash-out unused tokens.4. No more risk of losing tokens.5. Smoother operations at the event6. More time for the players7. FREE table time for all Second Chance and mini tournaments8. AND...YOUR GREEN FEES will include the FREE use of open tables for practice to all event participants! With the move to the Rio, CSI can accomodate (300+) tables for competition, minis and practice.

CSI started to consider this change with the results of the 2011 BCAPL event sur-vey. 1,400 participants that year com-pleted the survey and conveyed the desire to go to a green fee system. The goal of CSI is to make the BCAPL and USAPL National Championships bigger and better each year.

US Open 8-BallChampionshipDebuts at Rio

CSI is expanding the roster of professional tournaments at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino, Las Vegas in July 2013. The in-augural US Open 8-Ball Championship, sponsored by the American Cuemakers Association, will take place July 23-27.

The new event will follow the 14th US Open One Pocket Championship and the 5th US Open 10-Ball Championship. Both the US Open 8-Ball and US Open 10-Ball Championship tournaments are 2013 BCA Points Events.

The combination of CSI US Open events in July is truly unique for both players and spectators. In the course of 10 days top US and international players will play in three professional level tournaments in three separate disciplines with a combined to-tal of $60,000 added.

Also added in 2013! General Admission spectator tickets will be FREE TO ALL BCAPL and USAPL player participants.See page 23 for more details.

In 2008 CSI initially tested the USAPL in a a couple of states. Players appreciated the benefits of no membership fee, a struc-tured national handicap system, on-line posted national stats reported weekly and, most of all, knowing they will have the benefit of a structured territory pay-out system that was designed to benefit more than just 1 or 2 teams or the nation-al league organization.

Going into 2013 CSI is happy to announce the USA Pool League is now being oper-ated in 16 states in the US and has ac-tive leagues in Alabama, Colorado, Con-necticut, Florida, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Nevada, Okla-homa, New Hampshire, New York, North Carolina, Rhode Island, and Virginia.

The New England area, Colorado and Flor-ida have particularly shown tremendous growth. (read the article How to Grow a League on the New England USAPL on page 18 of this newsletter)

USAPL NEWS and UPDATESAt a Glance

CSI produces the BCA Pool League, the USA Pool League, the Jay Swanson Memorial 9-Ball Tournament, the US Bar Table Championships, the US Open One Pocket Championship and the US Open 10-Ball Championship

In September, the New England USA Pool League (NE USAPL), managed by pool promoter Roy Pastor, celebrated its first year anniversary. Headquartered in Ayer, Massachusetts, the new league has leaped to 90 teams in 12 short months.

The NE USAPL features several division options: Women’s 8-Ball, Masters 10-Ball, 8-Ball/10-Ball Double Play, 8-Ball/9-Ball Double Play, One Pocket and the only junior division in New England. The divi-sions are located in Massachusetts, Con-necticut, and New Hampshire.

While Pastor refuses to take all the credit, the league’s success is, without a doubt, due to his focused dedication and lead-ership. When asked about the NE USAPL success in year one he said, “I have been very fortunate to get a lot of help from a great group of players, Division Reps, host locations and friends whose enthusiasm and hard work has ignited a fire storm of growth and momentum.”

The NE USAPL took their first trip to the USAPL National Championships in Las Ve-gas where they placed nationally in both individual and team competitions. Pas-tor recalls, “By the time the BCAPL / US-APL nationals rolled around in May 2012, most of our league players had only

How to Grow a League? New England USAPL Shining Examplebeen members for one session, and yet we (the NE USAPL) were still able to take a larger percentage of our players to Ve-gas than the local APA franchise whose players had competed for three sessions.”

In the NE USAPL recent summer session playoffs, close to 100 trophies were given out to winning teams. Teams from both summer sessions will be invited to compete in “Go to Vegas” tournaments for a chance to win a trip to Las Vegas in July 2013 for the 3rd USAPL National Championships held at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino.

Capping off a tremendous first year, Pas-tor announced that a new NE USAPL 14.1 Continuous division has been recently added. It’s the first ever handicapped US-APL Straight Pool Division in the United States. Arguably, 14.1 Continuous is con-sidered the best game for players to help improve their overall skills and game.

For more information on the NE USA Pool League, visit www.neusapoolleague.com or check out their Facebook page at www.facebook.com/neusapoolleague.

Baker and EichhornAnnual Award Recipients

The CueSports International (CSI) Referee Program provides quality officials for many tournaments across the United States in addition to our own BCAPL and USAPL events. We have referees who have officiated for the International Pool Tour (IPT), Galveston World Classic, Women’s Professional Billiard Association (WPBA) and World Pool Billiard Association (WPA). The CSI Rules and Ref-eree program is led by CSI Rules Administrator and Director of Referees, Bill Stock (pictured first row center). All Photos on this page courtesy of Filmless Art.

CSI RULES AND REFEREES

Being a CSI referee is more than a two week commitment in Las Vegas. It is dedi-cation to studying the nuances of circum-stances that can and do take place in the various disciplines of the game. It is the willingness to commit weeks of the year presiding over tournaments with eyes wide open and the ability to be objective.

Each year, CSI recognizes two members of the CSI Referee staff for their dedication and service to the sport of pool. Bret Bak-er from Oregon received the National Ref-eree of the Year Award. He has been a CSI referee since 2008. Hailing from Iowa, the 2012 Senior Referee of the Year was Phil Eichhorn, who has dedicated 11 years of service to CSI and the BCAPL. We wish to thank and congratulate both gentlemen for their services to the sport and to CSI.

CueSports International (CSI) More Choices For All Players

28

the 2010 championships, cell phone, texting and email notifications were introduced to tell players when tables became available for their matches.

Independent Pool Tournaments – CSI owns and produces a growing number of advanced, semi-pro, and professional pool tournaments, which require no league affiliation.

• CSI CEO Mark Griffin launched the Jay Swanson Memorial 9-Ball Tour-nament (the “Swanee”) in 1996 to honor the late great “Gentle Giant,” Jay Swanson. Mark continues to fund and personally direct the tournament. The 17th Annual Swanee is February 23-24, 2013 at Hard Times Billiards in Bellflow-er, California.

• CSI took over production of the US Bar Table Championships in Reno, Nevada in 2007, and ensures the fu-ture of the event with Bad Boys Billiard Productions for direction, the CueSports Tournament System for live on-line tournament charts, and the best of Diamond, Aramith, and Simo-nis products for billiard equipment. The 20th Annual US Bar Table Champi-onships is February 25 - March 3, 2013 at the Grand Sierra Resort and Casino in Reno, Nevada.

• CSI resurrected the US Open One Pocket Tournament in CSI’s inaugural year (2004). The 14th US Open One Pocket Championship will be staged July 17-20, 2013 at the Rio All-Suite Ho-tel & Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

• CSI launched the US Open 10-Ball Championship in November, 2007 in Louisville, Kentucky. The 2013 edition will be staged July 19-23, during the 37th Annual BCAPL National Champi-onships at the Rio. The event will host a stellar field of 96 of the finest pool players on the planet, and starts im-mediately following the US Open One Pocket Championship.

• CSI is adding a third professional level event. Debuting this year at the Rio is

the 1st US Open 8-Ball Champion-ship, which will be held July 23-27, 2013. This and the US Open 10-Ball event are BCA Points Events, which determine which US players compete in the WPA World Championships.

USA Pool League (USAPL) – CSI launched the new USA Pool League (USAPL) in selected markets across the USA. The USA Pool League is very dif-ferent from the BCAPL. It uses a fully automated national rating system in a match play format, offers protected league territories to USAPL Manag-ers and secures local prize funds. The USA Pool League utilizes the proven Fairplay handicapping software, which is quickly becoming the industry stan-dard for singles and team play.

CSI web site development – CSI now has three distinct web sites, developed to support all CSI products. www.playbca.com continues to cover all of the BCA Pool League, plus some inde-pendent events listed under Events/UPCOMING EVENTS. www.playu-sapool.com was developed to support the new USA Pool League. www.playc-sipool.com was designed to cover the non-league affiliated CSI products, in-cluding the independent professional events produced by CSI.

The Rio in 2013 – The BCAPL National Championships will enjoy two major changes this year. In 2013, the “Great-est Pool Tournament in the World” will move from May to July … and will walk the welcome mat at the Rio All-Suite Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas.

The Rio convention facilities are first rate, and much larger than the old venue. The move allows CSI to expand and showcase the BCAPL National Championships and the CSI profes-sional tournaments.

The date and venue changes will pro-vide more accommodations and more pool tables, so that more players, fami-lies, and friends can enjoy an even rich-er experience at the new venue.

In the beginning – CueSports Inter-national (CSI) was founded in 2004 to administer the BCA Pool League, and to create “more choices for all play-ers,” the mission to which CSI has been fully dedicated. Since then, CSI has quietly developed a major infrastruc-ture for the support and growth of pool events through innovative, state of the art products and services.

BCA Pool League (BCAPL) – The first order of business was the preservation of the BCA Pool League (BCAPL). A core staff with a combined history of over 200 years in the industry was as-sembled. A state of the art computer hardware and software system was installed. The BCAPL league manage-ment software system, called League-Sys, was contracted. A custom data-base was developed to integrate with LeagueSys and our web sites. A sup-port structure for state and regional events was created. And, the league bible, the Official Rules of the BCA Pool League, was developed. Throughout the initial years, the official web site, playbca.com, was expanded to com-municate all facets of the BCA Pool League to our sport and our indus-try. A leading attraction is the annual BCAPL National Championships, the subject of this newsletter.

CueSports Tournament System (CTS) www.ctsondemand.com – A state of the art tournament manage-ment software system, the CueSports Tournament System (CTS), was de-veloped for the BCAPL National Cham-pionships, and is now used for tourna-ments of all kinds, including the US Bar Table Championships, the Western BCAPL Regional Championships, the US Open One Pocket Championship, the US Open 10-Ball Championship, the US Open 8-Ball Championship and a growing number of BCAPL state and regional events.

The live on-line charts feature of the CTS is extremely popular among play-ers, fans, and enthusiasts. During
