Official Rules of Billiards League Rules

A pool league includes two teams and a set number of rules. The BCA (Billiards Congress of America), has many billiards guidelines to choose from. Some of these are common, while others are a bit more advanced. However, most of the rules are relatively the same. To play in a league you will need to become familiar with its rules. Fortunately, there are several organizations in North America that offer competitive pool. There are many tournaments each year, with the WPBA Tour being the largest.

A league allows you to switch players between teams. This is called a roster change and is allowed up to the tenth week of play. You'll need to talk to a league official to get more details. To do this, you will need to fill in a new registration sheet that includes your name, contact numbers, and email address. After the roster has been finalized, you will need to pay the dues. All payments must arrive at least a week in advance. They can be made via check or credit card.

Another thing that is fun about a pool league: there is a code for conduct that all the players must follow. At all times, players must be professional and courteous. The match will be forfeited if a player displays disruptive behavior during the game. All players must report any violations before they can attempt to play. While the BCA does not allow arguing with its officials during a playoff, a well-intentioned player can still have a negative impact.


The rules of pool generally remain the same. It is best to pick the format that best suits your needs. You may find the competition to be more intense than your expectations depending on how many of your teammates are participating. Also, be sure to select a rulebook that is appropriate for your level of play. APA is one of the more forgiving leagues, but there are still some rules you need to be aware of.

As with all pool rules, the most important aspect is not to overdo it. It is important for you to leave a positive impression on the opponents. You can give some tips and tricks to new players. You can at the most mention that they will be the first to report infractions and that they must do so in a manner that doesn't result in them missing their next shot.

The best and most fun part of any pool league is the camaraderie and friendships that can be fostered. You might consider joining one of the many APA tournaments. Most often, organizers set up non-team and doubles tournaments as well as other opportunities to compete.
