TAP league vs APA

[LMoss18701]

Where did my first post go that i posted yesterday. yesterday i posted a
request for input from players around the country on their thoughts and
experiences with TAP league. i had one reply this morning , read it, and then
could not find the original post. nothing in my preferences marked should have
done this. does anyone else see the original post? (maybe its me) anyway i was
asking input from various players in this group about their experiences in tap
league. does no one in this group play tap league?

Here it is Linda,

I would like some imput from league players around the country that have
been
involved with Tap league. It has been said to me that their handicap system
is
far better than APA as well as their scoring methods.Also does anyone have
any
input on their higherlevel tournaments.

Linda or anyone else out there that is interested in TAP,

I am not going to get into the differences on what TAP offers compared
to the APA. I have done that in the past on public forums and it just
ends up going no where. People just argue different points of view
that ends up to be a big waste of time. If you are interested in
bringing TAP to your area, please call me at 814-267-5683 or e mail me
at tap...@aol.com. You can also go the the TAP national site at
www.tapleague.com I will tell you how TAP is different and what we
have to offer compared to the other leagues.
Thanks, Sam Rullo, TAP Vice President of Sales

You may want to consider BCA league sanctioning.
It's a whole differfent thing in the sense that you are not bound by a national
"from the top down" type organization.
Instead, your players are just sanctioned with a one time $10 annual membership
by a non-profit type national body. You can taylor your events to the needs or
interests of the players.
For example, for higher level players, I am going to try a ten (week) event
singles tournament for 32 players, no handicapping, where ten players will win
a trip to the BCA singles national 8-ball tournament in May.
My point here, is not say this is better or anything. It is to sy that it is a
different approach where decisions are made from the "bottom up" so to speak.
I've been doing it for three years now. Nobody is getting rich, but our local
pool players have really enjoyed it and I've met a lot of people and our local
players get to experience an awesome event in Las Vegas. But you can do
trophies, or cash or what-ever your players are interested in. Remember,
decisions are made "at home."
Hope this info is helpful, because that's my only purpose in responding.

Archangel blowout from Guthrie Oklahoma wants to come post a complaint against Butch Pascal for taking advantage of me I have a nice to his work for him and playing favoritism rest of the bootlegger bar seeing everybody there is way underrated what you're supposed to be and he knows that and then he changes the rules to fit them every time it's time for them to play because they got 1601 bar I think that's way too many teams but we're going to pull them out of the APA session because it's not fair it's not fun no more we have to do all his work for him and we get screwed every time we play any kind of rub put it off but we came in second place and we got to play and one of them one of them things from the Bootleggers are we under Ranch and then they wouldn't let us put replay because we had one player list I don't want to complain I guess Pascal and I to go out to check for you will not play ever again in apa unless something is done about
