    2010-2011 Official Rules of the BCA Pool League Our Goal To create and improve opportunities for pool players of all abilities through fair governance and equitable policies. Effective June 1, 2010 BCA Pool League 2041 Pabco Road Henderson, NV 89011 (702) 719-7665 OFFICIAL RULES OF THE BCA POOL LEAGUE www.playbca.com Copyright 2010 BCA Pool League A Message from Mark Griffin Welcome to the 2010-2011 edition of the Official Rules of the BCA Pool League (BCAPL). Our organization has received widespread praise for having the most detailed and clear set of rules in the industry. Comments from players, officials and league operators are overwhelmingly in favor of our approach to presenting rules that guarantee consistency in enforcement throughout all league competition and tournaments. Mike Shamos, resident rules guru for Billiards Digest and one of pool’s most respected individuals, wrote: “The Official Rules of the BCA Pool League are the most extensive set of rules in history, and for the first time they are accompanied by interpretive decisions. The “Applied Rulings” section deserves serious study. It is of course impossible to write a rule set that deals with every conceivable happenstance. Even the USGA rules don’t try to do that. Therefore, referees and tournament directors must be guided by interpretations so they can make intelligent rulings when new situations arise. I’m not declaring their rules to be perfect, but they try to be. The rules themselves and their interpretations have been given a great deal of thought, and the reasoning behind them is not hidden but is right there on the page.
