    Bocca Billiards

    Due to 4th of July, the following will be dates for tourn. at Bocca Billiards.
    June 27 DYP - July 4 no tourn. July 11 DYP, July 17 DYP July 18 BYP
    July 25 No tourn, Aug 1st DYP.
    The DYP's will start at 9:00pm sharp! The BYP will start at 3:00pm on Saturday.
    Miss Donna made the suggestion that every month when Saturday falls on a teen date, that will be the BYP for the month. Slammers did it for many years and it seemed to work very well.
    I will try to get another table for the BYP's but space will soon become an issue. W/ only two tables I would lean towards 2 of 3 until 4th place or better then move to a 3 of 5 series.
    I hope this does not conflict w/ other tourn? Suggestions are gladly accepted.
    Thanks to all,
    Jim Fernella

    Re: Bocca Billiards

    First I want to say that I visisted Bocca last weekend for the first time. Sean and I were both very pleased. My husband played foos for the first time in a long time and really enjoy himself. I must say, I believe the atmosphere helped...not that slammers wasn't nice,but Bocca is definitly a different atmosphere.

    Donna, or anyone else who might know...what is the entry for the DYP?

     

    Thanks to everyone responsible for making Bocca a possibility. I hope to see many of you there.

    Heather :)

    As of now up in Indianapolis, we are still having the monthly DYP/BYP at Kip's on the last Saturday of each month (unless a holiday conflicts with this schedule).  I think I speak for, at a minimum, the Indy crowd when I support the idea that Bocca's BYP events take place on a weekend prior to the last weekend of each month. 

     

    The July tournament scheduling is perfect, and if Donna's format of playing the BYP is employed that would create the possibility for Indy, Ohio and some Illinois players to participate in 2 BYPs per month at two great locations.  I know of, including myself, at least 6 players that would do as much as they can to make both tournaments due to the good locations and competition. 

     

    Hopefully you guys settle on something that can create this opportunity, because if Bocca retains the crowd for it's BYPs it is going to be a great place to play and I want to make it down there as much as possible.  I look forward to seeing everyone at Bocca (and hopefully Kip's) in July!

    Sean,

     Just spoke with Jim Fernella of Bocca Billiards... The BYP's will occur on the "teen" Saturday of the month... For example: 13th-19th, which ever date that matches...  Very similar to the old Slammers schedule, except on Saturday.  Tournament starts @ 3:00 pm.  Format 2/3 both sides.  $40 per team, plus money added.

     The Friday night before that BYP will be a DYP @ 9:00 pm.  All DYP's are $10 entry per person. Format 2/3 both sides.  All other remaining Saturday's in the month are DYP's @ 9:00 pm.

    If a holiday conflicts with the BYP date, then the date will likey get pushed forward a week rather than backward which may conflict with Indy.
