Join the APA!
While some membership cards require you to be able to jump the cue ball, bank it off three rails and sink the 8-Ball blindfolded, getting an APA Membership Card is much easier.
Having fun, meeting new people and playing pool is what the APA is all about.. You don't have to be a pool shark, because in the APA -- everyone can play and anyone can win. The APA wants beginners and novices, because it is the AMATEUR Poolplayers Association. No other organization in pool gives ordinary players a chance to win a share of nearly $1.5 MILLION guaranteed cash and prizes paid out through its national tournaments.
How does the APA do it? It uses The Equalizer® handicap system to determine the amount of games a player has to win in order to capture the match. It allows a novice to win less games than a more-skilled opponent to win a match.
Here you can find out information about the APA Pool Leagues and how you can have fun and compete in the world's largest pool league.
In the APA, Everyone Can Play & Anyone Can Win!

3-Year-Old Pool Prodigy Appears in "9-Ball" Movie
Three-year-old pool prodigy, Keith O’Dell, Jr., was recently featured on a local television station in Albany, N.Y., about his role in “9-Ball” the movie. Keith has a small part in the movie, but it’s a big deal for a 3-year-old! “9-Ball” is now in post production. Father, Keith, Sr., said that little Keith walked into the pool hall where filming took place and started making shots right in front of Jennifer Barretta, WPBA player and star of the movie.
Little Keith is now mastering even more shots at the table! He’s the youngest player to execute a jump shot. Pool prodigy or not, Keith, Jr., is still a 3-year-old, and it isn’t always easy keeping him focused as you’ll see in the clip!
