Do you enjoy being organized and keeping things running smoothly? Our pool league is looking for a Statistician to help manage scores and keep our members updated.

What you’ll do:

• Monitor the league email (for team scores and public inquiries).
• Post weekly team scores to the website.
• Set up the season and playoff calendar.
• Maintain venue details, team names, and logos on the website.
• Update league pages when executive members or wording changes.
• Share announcements on the website and Facebook.

What you won’t need to do:

• No server or IT management.
• No web design, coding, or graphics work required.
• No need to maintain the website platform or styles.

The responsibilities are well documented, and training will be provided. This role is all about organization and communication — not tech skills. If you can work with basic website tools and enjoy helping the league stay connected, we’d love to hear from you!

Email tnm8bl@gmail.com, or talk to a league executive if you’re interested.

As part of making our league website look even better this season, we’re inviting all teams to submit their own team logos! Logos will appear on your team’s profile page and add some personality to our standings, schedules, and match pages. There are some screenshots at the bottom of this email that show where logos would appear. 

Here are the guidelines for team logos:

• File Format: PNG (transparent background preferred)
• Size: Between 500 × 500 and 2000 × 2000 pixels
• Content: Must be family-friendly (website is public), no offensive, suggestive, or explicit content. Pool-related themes (8-ball, cues, tables, etc.) encouraged, but creativity is welcome!
• Text: If you include your team name, please make sure the font is clear and readable.

How to Submit:
To submit your logo, please have your team captain email it to tnm8bl@gmail.com. Once approved, it will be uploaded to your team’s profile on the website.

Don’t have a logo or not sure how to make one? No problem! The league can create one on your behalf. Just email tnm8bl@gmail.com with your team name and a short description of the concept you’d like, and we’ll design a logo for you.

We look forward to seeing your creativity shine!

Hello everyone,

We have an important update to share, including executive team changes and information on schedules and scorekeeping.

First, we’d like to thank everyone and apologize for any confusion or uncertainty leading up to the new season. Things always get a little hectic right before a new season, but everything is coming together, and we’re very excited for the 2025–2026 season!

Our website and Facebook page will continue to remain active. Dave Tessier has volunteered to act as interim Webmaster and Statistician while the executive team looks to appoint a permanent replacement. We’d also like to thank Shawn Fournier, who has done an outstanding job maintaining the site for most of the past decade.

Other changes to the executives are as follows:

Jim Nairn has been appointed as Vice President in the interim. As this is a voted position, Captains are encouraged to let me know if they wish to hold an emergency meeting, or accept as is and simply go out and enjoy a night of pool. Jim has been with the league for many years, and I thank him for accepting on short notice.

Lynn Macintyre has been appointed as Treasurer and will be collecting the funds from all Raxx teams. Rob and Mick can also submit directly to Lynn.

At this time, the Secretary position will remain open.

We wish to thank all past executives for their work for this league.

The September schedule has now been posted. We encourage you to bookmark the schedule page at https://www.kingston8ball.com/schedule

(Pro tip: if you click on the schedule, then click your team’s name, you’ll see a schedule page for your team alone!)

Additional schedule dates will be uploaded by mid-September, giving us time to make any small adjustments that may arise during the first couple of weeks of play.

Captains:
Going forward, please submit all scores by email to TNM8BL@gmail.com

* You may either attach a photo of your score sheet, or
* Send a simple message with the total scores and your team names.

In the past, scores have been submitted through several different methods. To keep things simple and consistent, this email will now be the single official way to submit statistics. The same email address can also be used by any player to send inquiries to the executive team.

Rule Change
The proposed ball-in-hand rule was voted in by a majority and will be adopted as follows:

Note: this is not a complete shift to BCA rules.

1. Once groups of balls are established, you must hit one of your object balls first, or your opponent gets ball in hand anywhere on the table. You do not need to hit the ball you aimed for, as long as you hit one of your own.
2. If you hook yourself on the 8, you must hit it or it is loss of game. (No change.)
3. If your opponent hooks you, you must hit the 8 as it is your object ball. If you do not contact the 8 first, your opponent gets ball in hand.
4. You do not need to hit a rail after contacting your object ball.

Thank you for your cooperation, and here’s to a great season ahead!
