| Manhattan 4th Div exceeded points cap |
Manhattan 4th Division exceeded the Team Points Cap in the match against Mitcham this week, Tuesday 10th May.
This match result has been adjusted accordingly, the "win" now awarded to Mitcham, match scores recalculated, and the ladder updated.
*Reminder to all teams...
Please check "Division Info" on the website, for Points Caps; Minimum Point Value; "New" player point values; and Forfeit point values.
Also, please refer to player points list on the website.
It's a good idea to use the "Team Points Simulator" on the website to check your teams points total.
Reminder that the player's points are totaled each "round" of the match, so care must be taken when substituting players in and out. |
| ~ R.I.P ~ KAREN ‘KAZ’ URQUHART ~ |
We are extremely sad to announce the passing of KAREN URQUHART (nee Eddy / Ramadge).
Karen passed away suddenly on Saturday 7th May 2022.
Karen, EDPL Rego# 5629, joined EDPL in 1996 with Croydon Hotel Pool Club, playing there for 2 seasons, before transferring to Rack-Em-Up Pool Club in 1998 and playing 6 years with "Rackers", then helping to form a new club at the York on Lilydale, playing there for 3 years from 2004 to 2006, before the club changed it's name to Mt.Dandy, where Kaz played from 2007 up until 2011.
Karen played 298 EDPL Winter Games & 22 Summer Games.
Kaz was EDPL Treasurer for 6 years, 2002 til 2007, and was awarded a prestigious & well deserved EDPL Life Membership in 2007.
Karen was amazing on the EDPL Executive Committee, her involvement not only as Treasurer, but in every other aspect of the league was immeasurable. Her assistance with Treasury duties, facilitating the purchase of the current EDPL Office building, helping out at Tournaments, Finals, organizing Umpires, her enormous contribution & legacy continues to this day...
Karen's involvement with her Pool Clubs was also greatly appreciated. She formed many long-lasting friendships with EDPL members, past & present.
Even though she stopped playing EDPL pool comp a few years ago, she continued to show an interest in our league, and her old pool clubs, & would always continue to attend EDPL Presentation nights, where she loved to catch up with old team-mates, opponents, & friends.
Karen will be very sadly missed, & fondly remembered
~ Our deepest sympathy & condolences go out to Karen's partner Mark, her son Matt, & her dear family & friends ~ from all at EDPL xx |

| Reminder - Match starting time! |
It has been brought to our attention, than some matches are starting later than 7:30pm!
Please ensure all teams are abiding by EDPL By-Law 8.7...
* "Matches shall commence PRIOR to 7:30pm (earlier starts, i.e.. from 7:00pm are to be encouraged"
So... 7:30pm is the absolute LATEST the first frames should have started by! Don't wait until 7:30pm, & then think about starting the match, start from 7:00pm if you can! & for MITCHAM home games, the matches MUST start at 7:00pm, as MITCHAM HOTEL only has 2 tables.
Also, please note By-Law 8.7.4...
"Two players per team have until 8:30pm to arrive at the venue. If they have not arrived at the venue prior to time, the teams will skip to the next frame. If they fail to arrive at the venue by 8:30pm, the team will forfeit any scheduled (skipped) frames that the player was due to play. Arrival times cannot be extended
(there are no "late passes" issued anymore). |

| Umpire Accreditation Online test |
If any members have passed the AEBF online Umpire Accreditation test, and received their Accreditation card from AEBF via email, could you please forward that AEBF card/email to the EDPL Office (office@edpl.org.au) so we can update your Umpire Accreditation status in our system.
We informed club representatives at the recent February and March meetings about this and to let their members know, but we have been getting a few questions about it just recently.
Thank you! |
| "8 Ball Pool The Board Game" |
Hi EDPL members,
Here's a message from the creator of "8 Ball Pool The Board Game"....
We want to let everyone know of a great initiative that is happening to promote our game to the general public.
Cue sports has suffered for many years and one of the fundamental reasons is it does not cater well to the next generation. The roots for success of any sport are getting families and parents to get their children involved, yet pool halls are just not a place for kids under teenage years.
Hence, all the promotion happening is basically targeting players with passion for the game, and not the general public. By the time kids have gotten to that age, they are already deeply involved in other sports such as tennis or football and parents are reluctant to introduce the wonderful game to their kids.
Lets help to bridge the gap between the 8 ball community and the mass consumer market.
There is now ‘8 Ball Pool The Board Game’ a family friendly tabletop game made for children and families that closely resembles traditional 8 ball pool for the next generation of young stars.
The product is made by 8 ball enthusiasts and will arrive on the market later this year as a world's first.
If everyone could please get behind a great initiative and support ‘8 Ball Pool The Board Game’ at www.8ballboardgame.com |
