The fourth annual ACS Midwest 8-Ball Championships has a new home and an increased added-money purse. To be conducted at the Riverside Resort & Casino, January 21-24, 2010, near Iowa City, IA, the American CueSports Alliance (ACS) event will feature singles 8-ball, 9-ball, scotch doubles, 4-person team and 2nd-chance divisions, and is opened this year – and this year only! – to any players who have played a minimum of four matches over a minimum of four weeks in one session of any pool league sanctioned by a credible National or State pool association since 6/1/09. Non-ACS league members pay an extra $25 ($10 if team) for entry into any division. Complete details, entry forms and flyers may be downloaded from the ACS website at www.americancuesports.org.

Any pool league can sanction or dual-sanction with the ACS simply by paying a $10/player sanction fee. Leagues that choose to sanction with ACS receive an extra perk this year of receiving a free J. Pechauer Custom Cue!
