LW Pool League

The Leisure World Pool League started its spring season on Jan. 20 and Wednesday, Jan. 22. There are six teams on both nights. Every team will play every other team twice during the season. Teams consist of three players, an A, B and C player. Each match is 13 games, so there is never a tied match. Every player plays singles in eight ball and nine ball against their corresponding opponent. They also play doubles with their two teammates, in both eight ball and nine ball. In the final game all three players from both teams play eight ball. Partners alternate shots.

On Jan. 20, I Don’t Care beat Anywhere But There 9-4. Rick Reed, Frank Sablan and WildFire! Christensen all won five games for I Don’t Care.
