SFPA

We had a massive 21 players show up for the Luby this season! In a marathon afternoon at the Cinch that ended up running into the night, Nenad Zagorac rose to the top after winning an amazing nine consecutive games to storm through the losers bracket. Congratulations to the top four finishers:

1. Nenad Zagorac, Hole in the Wall Howlers
2. Stern Montoya, Cinch Phoenix
3. Tamera Walters, Coyle’s Toil & Trouble
4. Will Huntington, Churchill Have Eyes

This weekend we are excited to invite new league members and players with a season record of .500 or below for the past 2 seasons to play in the Luby Invitational tournament. Participation is free for eligible players.

The event was created in the Fall 1997 season to honor Luby Pelletier, who helped found the SFPA league and was well known for his emphasis on teaching new players and bringing them into the game of pool. It is unique for its collegial atmosphere and the encouragement of coaching by more experienced players, many of whom attend each season to give advice and cheer on the participants.

Warmup begins at the Cinch at 11:30 am on Saturday April 1st, with play beginning at 12 noon. Please click on the calendar link for more information about the format and logistics.

Congratulations to the following players for their top finishes in the captain’s tournament:

1. Thayer McDougle, Pilsner InnDecisives
2. Jeffrey Smith, Route 101 Nomads
3. Paul Crouch, Route 101 Pool Cleaners
4. Yuko Takahashi, Happy Got Diamond

Tomorrow we kick off the season with the traditional captain’s meeting on February 28 at 6:30 pm at the Pilsner Inn. At least one player per team is requested to attend. If you are looking for a team to join this season or in the future, this event is a good opportunity to meet team captains and league members.

It’s almost time for the Spring 2023 season!
