  • It is YOUR responsibility to know the RULES of play.  Click here for the RULES.  Some highlights:
    • CALL SHOT.  No slop.
    • Alternate break.  Rack your own.
    • 8-ball on the break is neither loss of game or win.  See RULES.
    • If the 8-ball is on the table, the game is still in progress.  If the 8-ball is not on the table (exception is on the break), game is over.
  • SHOT CLOCKS will be used if your match is holding up the chart.  Slow play will not be tolerated.  NYC Pool Championships also reserves the right to start any match on the clock from the 1st rack.  The decision is at the tournament director's discretion.
  • NON-BCAPL MEMBERS must pay the $25 membership fee in order to play.  If you have not paid for this already, click here to pay your BCAPL membership fee.  Select "BCAPL Fee" from the dropdown menu. Otherwise, be prepared to pay this IN CASH on the day of your event.
