Physical Disabled Players Required |
|
 I have just received a telephone call from Renzie to say that the Physical Disabled and the Learning Difficulties are now a seperate section within the SPA. I will be the person to contact with players who match the Physical Disabled criteria. The criteria has yet to be defined, hopefully we will have that information soon.
So if any of you on the site know of players who may fit the criteria can you please contact me by either im or on in this post.

  Monklands are the, inaugural 2010 Scottish Super 11s B Champions, beating Glasgow B1 6 frames to 2 in the final. Captained by Stuart “Bucky” Buchanan Monklands were imperious throughout, remaining unbeaten over the whole weekend.
This first Super 11s for the B teams started on the Friday evening as normal and the first result in was the local derby between Dunfermline Youths 2 and Dunfermline B1, which the more experienced team won 9-2, while the eventual champions kicked off their assault on the trophy against Glasgow B3, and ran out 7-4 winners.

Rex Leisure Tour Event 1 Report |
|
  The first event of the new Rex Leisure Tour was played in Hustlers, Rosyth on Sunday 3rd February.
The series comprises of 6 events which have totally open draws of 96 players and then culminates in a Grand Final which splits into a top 32 tournament and a bottom 64 tournament. With around £21k in prizemoney up for grabs the events attract the cream of Scottish pool as well as all the players who want to pit themselves against the best.
The series is sponsored by Rex Leisure and they were founded in 1978, installing pool tables, fruit machines and entertainment equipment in pubs and clubs. But for the past few years they have discovered a vibrant home market for duke boxes, pool tables and various other entertainment equipment. They now have a presence across Scotland with shops in Hamilton, Edinburgh and their newest shop in Glasgow. Why not chalk your cue (or one from their extensive range) and bounce off some fabulous cushions at Scotland’s largest pool and snooker table showroom, with over 14 tables to try out 6 days a week or visit them online at www.homepooltables.com
The venue for the first event of the series was Hustlers in Rosyth run by Daz Adamson who I am sure everyone knows due to being at the superleague events fixing most people cues and also selling the odd cue as well. Every single player had high praise for the venue and the standard of the tables and facilities, this is undoubtedly one of the premier venues in Scotland for pool and I am sure Daz will have a lot of success with this venture.
