Western BCA Starts 14th Season

June 1st is the start of a new season for Western BCA Leagues. In the season just ending, we had more leagues, league players, tournament entries and added money than ever before and this year we expect continued growth. The 11th Annual Regional 9-Ball Championships are scheduled for the week of October 20, 2008. The 14th Annual Regional 8-ball Championships are scheduled for the week of March 9, 2009. Both of these events will be at Chinook Winds Casino Resort in Lincoln City Oregon.

At the recent Annual Meeting of Western BCA there were several changes made which will affect some players in this coming season.

• Players entering Master Scotch Doubles will be allowed to select a partner from throughout the region just like Master Teams.
• Only one Grandmaster can be on a Master Scotch Doubles entry.




• The policy of mandating only 2 original league team members on a men’s open 8-ball team has been amended and has been returned to mandating 3 original members on a men’s open 8-ball team with hardship exceptions on a case-by-case basis to be decided by the Board of Directors. The women’s open 8-ball teams will still have the 2 original members requirement.




• For 9-Ball Championships the opponent will rack the balls for the breaker. (No racking your own break for 9-ball)




• The top 4 Open Men’s 8-Ball teams and the top 2 Open Women’s 8-Ball teams must play in the Master Team event during the next two 8-ball Championships if 3 or more players from those team rosters are on that team. This is retroactive to the 2008 8-Ball Championships.

Also at the Annual Meeting, Bill Henderson was re-elected as President and Darcy Moss was elected as the new Vice President. A new Board of Directors was voted in consisting of Mike Jensen, Sam Rabito, Terry Ludwig, Cindy Doty, Stacy Sherman, Andrew Monstis and Sassy Campbell. Player fees will remain at $10 for the coming year. Sam Rabito will continue as Tournament Director and Darryl Farley will continue as Head Referee.

Other items of note:

• Chinook Winds announced today that the Top Slot Player for the 2008 Regional Championships was Ginger McInnis from Thurston County. This is the 2nd time in a row Ginger has won this award. The Top Table Player for the 2008 Regional Championships was Shane McKinley from Sno-King. Both will get a complimentary room for the duration of one of the next two Regional Championships. Congratulations to both Ginger and Shane.
