We did it! Or I should say ~ YOU DID IT!! Tonight wrapped up our second and Final 8-Ball World Qualifier Tournament. We'd like thank everyone in attendance over the 3 WQ weekends for being a part of the largest DuPage APA Event in history. Yet again, we witnessed A LOT of Good Sportsmanship toward one another, thank you for that! It was nice to see the support given to our teams as well! 🎉
Congratulations to the Final 2 teams who've punched their ticket to the big show in Las Vegas, the APA 8-Ball World Pool Championships, this August 4th-9th! 🎉🎱🏆🎊
Please help us CONGRATULATE these ladies & gents:
Less Talkin, More Chalkin - Captained by Tim Nagel, Luke Sobolewski, Linda Meydrech, Mike MacQueen, Keri Christine Dahm, Orlando Roldan, Nicolette Geneva and Chris Jacobson
Hotshots - Captained by Cindy Cooper, Sandy Jersey Lidman, Steven Ure, Tony Cannon, Bob Lischeron, Juliana Salzano, Patti Wheberling, Rudy Barbaccia
Thank you to our Division Reps who helped run the show, we appreciate you ~ Beth Rojek, Zach Abrams, refs Shane Rentfrow & Steve Swinarski, and our amazing photographer, Carolyn Arquette. We could not have pulled this off without your help! (I'm sorry if I've missed anyone.) 👏❤️
Once again, thank you to Q Pub and Grill for hosting our event.
Finally, Chad and I would like to thank each and every one of you for choosing to play in DuPage APA. It's more than just showing up to shoot pool on a team. It's building friendships, teaching and learning new skills, helping and supporting one another (both at league and outside of league). It's working together as a team, lifting one another up on a rough night, and celebrating one another's success on a great night. We enjoyed the fun, jokes, and laughter over the weekend. We hope you had a good experience, making memories you'll talk about for years. We are truly blessed to be on this journey with you.
