SENIORS (HOSTED BY SHOOTERS):

Azim Hoosen from JHB BB (Basils Billiards) ended up number 1 Seed.

All the players who partook in these events looked very professional in their JHB Blackball Golf Shirts which sported the federations new funky logo and the Timeout Sports Bar’s brand. This all possible thanks to the players who participated in the various JHB Blackball events previously and those who never qualified for the sponsored shirts but paid anyways, not forgetting the R8,000 plus sponsorship from Timeout Sports Bar who hosted the said events. Not bad in for our first year so far!

Then 2 special mentions, to Dave van der Berg from Ballbreakers Mondeor and Thilomi Govender from Nterra, who between them, threw R10,000 prizemoney into the Women’s event plus complimentary lunch, what an awesome contribution which we are sure will get our ladies to recruit more ladies for next season! Thilomi and Dave, we hope this will become an annual contribution for the Ladies!!!!

To the JHB Men and Masters playing this weekend, play well, and bring home the GOLD!

Date: 5-6 November
Venue: Timeout Sports Bar
Events: Singles Round-Robin, Singles Knockout, Scotch Doubles Knockout & Team Speed Pool

Congratulations to all the participants that took part, and best of luck at the 2016 Gauteng Blackball Championships!
