For players
A pool league where your frames count wherever you played them.
Dues split per player and settled at signup, and a circuit that counts a night at any room on it.
Finding one
By night, and by which rooms are on the circuit.
A pool league is a standing Tuesday across a set of rooms, and which rooms decides how far you drive all season. The circuit is listed on the league page rather than learned in week three.
Getting in
Your share, at signup.
Team dues split per player, so each of you settles your own part when you join rather than one person carrying the season and collecting it back a twenty at a time.
Before you turn up
What the billiards you enter has already settled.
Every one of these is decided by the organizer before entries open rather than argued about in week three, and whatever they have settled is on the event page under “What is set” — so you read the rules before you enter, not at the field on the first night.

Racks, break rules and anything about how a frame is played belong to the league. Nothing here encodes them, so the league's own rules are the ones you play under and its organizer is who settles a dispute.
Common Questions
- Does a night at another room still count?
- Yes. A circuit keeps one set of standings across every room in it, so where a frame was played does not change whether it counted.
- How are dues handled?
- They split per player and are settled at signup, which is the difference between a season and a season of collecting cash. What the amount is and when it is due are the league's to set.
- Do I need an account to look around?
- No. Browsing is open to anyone — leagues, clubs, tournaments and races are all readable without signing in. You only need an account to register for something, because a registration has to belong to somebody.
- How does paying work?
- Registering and paying are one step, by card. Where the event asks for a waiver you sign it in the same checkout rather than printing it and carrying it to the field. The money goes to the organizer running the event rather than sitting with us until the season ends.
- What if I do not have a team?
- Races, tournaments and open days take you exactly as you are — one entry, one person. A league season is entered by a team, so instead of registering alone you list yourself as available to play and the teams that are a body short come and find you. Nothing is paid until one of them takes you on.
- What happens if it is already full?
- For a race, a tournament or an open day, a waitlist place confirms itself the moment somebody drops out. A league season queues by team instead, and the side that comes off the queue gets a window to settle the entry before the spot moves on. Where the field is capped by permit, entry may run as a draw with a claim window instead.
- Something went wrong with my registration. Who do I ask?
- The organizer first. They run the event, they can see your registration and they are the one who can change or refund it. If you cannot reach them, we will help — but they are faster, because it is their event.
- What do I keep afterwards?
- One profile carrying every registration, result and standing, across every sport you play here. A season of kickball and a spring half marathon sit in the same place rather than across two organizers and a timing company.
