Click on the flyer below to read about last year's year-end winners who qualified for our National event in Orlando, FL. TAP has a "travelling" national event - meaning it's held in various locations every two years. For 2010 and 2011, the nationals will be held in Las Vegas.
WILD CARD DRAW DATES & TIMES
All teams in a division who did not come in 1st, 2nd, or 3rd at the end of the session are invited to attend the draw.Two bonus chips, in addition to the number of chips your team earned based on Division placement will be given to each team that has one player present. Two bonus chips maximum per team. If your team does not have representation, two chips for your team’s placement in the draw must be drawn to win the Wild Card spot. This is to reward the teams who invest their time in the league and participate in the draw. This rule was voted in by the players. If no one from your team can participate, you can send someone to represent your team, but you must notify the league office as to who that person will be prior to the draw. That individual cannot be someone from another team in your division. All weekly dues and memberships must be current to be eligible for the Wild Card draw. Wild Card Teams are invited to the Titleholders tournament.

FALL 2009/2010 TOP PERFORMERS
Congratulations to the teams who are now eligible to play in the Titleholders event - the next step to get to the AZ State Masters! If you see two teams listed in the 3rd place bracket, it's because there was a tie for 3rd. The top team listed receives 3rd place money (determined by a tiebreaker calculation). The other team is automatically eligible for Titleholders because of the tie and can participate in the Wild Card Draw to try for the Wild Card money. If they are drawn, the Wild Card spot will automatically go to the "alternate" Wild Card team.
Titleholders #1: Div. A-B-C-M-P - March 20/21 - Skip & Jan's 10 a.m. start time
Titleholders #2: Div. G-K-L-N-Q - March 27/28 - Main Street Billiards 10 a.m. start time
