On Friday 02 February 2024 20:14

16 rookies, £410 cash, 4 rounds, 2 Tables, 1 Trophy, 1 Winner.

New tournament for the Chichester area, to encourage up and coming and players that play on more of a casual basis to get involved.

Open to players that are getting into pool but not quite ready to enter some of the tournaments that already exist. My discretion will be used to determine if allowed to enter.
This is not based on any particular Division or League, however as a guide this is aimed at players in Chichester Div 2, and Bognor Div 3/2, casual players, or players that are categorised as "Low D standard" in other local tournaments & competitions.
