Before the last sentence of the Local Bylaws section. Page 18- Adds Doubles Divisions to Other Formats Page 22- Change of Exceptions to Exception in the Age Requirement Section Page 23- Section 4 Letter A Capitalizes the word League in the phrase League play Page 25- Section 5 Letter B Changes the word Board to BOG for Board of Governors. Also, added is a sentence on the very bottom of page 25 If a third party is asked to watch a shot, the call will stand and cannot be disputed. Page 26- Letter D- The following is added to this section You will lose your right to protest if you refuse to continue the match or make no attempt to resolve the issue through negotiation and/or compromise.

2 Page 26- Section 7- The Title of the Section is changed from an Or to an & Page 27- Section 8 Last sentence is changed to read, The penalty for falsifying a player on your roster will be suspension and/or disqualification of each member of the team(s) determined to be involved in the falsification.

Page 31- Section 15 Changed the word sometimes to may and sometimes to often when referring to new players skill levels note. Page 32- Section 16 Added sentence You can download a copy of your membership card from members.poolplayers.com Page 32- Section 18 Totally Reworded this Section CANNOT CHANGE TEAMS You may not change teams within a division during a session unless approved by the League Operator, and then only once during the first four weeks. Page 32- Section 20 Totally Reworded this Section TEAM MATCH PLAY You may only play once in a team match unless otherwise stipulated in the Local Bylaws.

Page 35- Section 26 changed word good to fair chance in 2 nd sentence Page 36- Section 29 Changes the word that to THE ENTIRE and adds the word individual between subsequent and matches in the final sentence. THESE CHANGES MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE! READ THIS SECTION AGAIN CAREFULLY!!!

3 Page 38- How the Wild Card Team is Selected - change from they gave up more than 5 forfeit points to unless they forfeit more than five individual matches. Page 39- The example of when 3 teams are tied has changed: The loser is in 5th Place; the winner is matched against Team #5. The loser of this second tie-breaking matchup is in 4th Place, and the winning team assumes 3rd Place. If teams are tied and they did not play each other during the regular session, the winner will be determined by who earned the most points in the last week of the regular session unless otherwise stipulated in the Local Bylaws. Example: Teams #4 and #7 finish tied for 3rd Place. These two teams did not play each other during the session. Looking back at the last week of regular session play: Last Match of Regular Session: Team #4 won 7pts Last Match of Regular Session: Team #7 won 6pts Team #4 would be declared the winner. Had both teams earned the same number of points during the last week of the regular session, their point totals from the week prior would then be compared in order to determine a winner. Continue with this approach until the tie is broken Page 40- In the section For a player to participate in Session Playoffs - they have added a 2 nd sentence, Local Bylaws may stipulate additional requirements for playoff eligibility. Page 42- Under Regular Shooting Cue Added sentence, You may not break down your Regular Shooting Cue to perform a jump shot.

Page 46- Section 3 Breaking- The word and is in bold faced type print when discussing an illegal break. Page 47- Section 4 After the Break Letter D, Totally Reworded, A ball is pocketed; it is still the breaker s turn and he continues shooting the category of balls he just made. Letter E, the following words are added to the rest of the sentence, become his category for the remainder of the game. Page 49- Section 7 Pocketed Balls in note 2 the word considered has been added between are and pocketed. Page 50- Section 10 Fouls Letter B Added sentence 2 nd to last on page, If the outside party cannot determine which ball was struck first, such as a simultaneous hit, the call goes to the shooter. Letter D, added sentence to paragraph, Unlike simultaneous hits between object balls, if the cue ball strikes the rail first or

4 appears to hit both the rail and ball simultaneously, then it would be a foul unless either the cue ball or object ball went to some other rail. Letter G, added sentence, 2 nd to last of section, If during the course of the shot, another ball stops in the position previously occupied by the accidently moved ball, the opponent must place the accidently moved ball, in an ethical manner, as close as possible to its original position. Page 52- Section 11 Letter F, the word forfeited has been changed to lost. Page 60- Section 9 The Fees Section, The word unusual has been changed to nonstandard. Page 60- Section 10 Team Captain s Signature Block, phrase shown in the Running Total block to (available in the Running Total block) Page 62- Section 1 Changed to the entire team match from for that League match.

Once a ball has stopped all motion, it cannot move again without outside forces affecting it. So, if it falls in a pocket, it is to be placed back on the table where it was before it fell. Note 2: It occasionally happens on tables with small pockets that two balls become jammed in a pocket and are leaning over the edge of the slate to some degree. They are off the playing surface and are considered pocketed. Drop them in and resume playing the game unless the pocketing ends the game. Page 68- Section 11 Scoring In the middle of Example 3 added, and the other object ball is recorded as a dead ball. Page 68- Statistics updated 76% of males and 73% of females Page 74: At the very bottom, Exception is bold type faced print Page 77: A letter is added to explain that in Masters 8 Ball the pocket for the 8 Ball can be called instead of marked. Pages 78-80: ALL NEW COVERS THE 8BALL AND 9BALL DOUBLES STANDARDIZATION

5 Page 93: Team Names and Team Shirts: Sentence added to end of section, For more information on team names, please refer to poolplayers.com. Page 94: Travel Assistance Policy: APA s policy is that the Local League awards travel assistance to the team advancing from the Local Team Championship to the APA World Championships held each August in Las Vegas, Nevada. The travel assistance fund paid by the Local League is not prize money and should not be considered prize money. Travel assistance is to offset some or all the expenses incurred by the team in traveling to and participating in the World Championships. The travel assistance fund is to be split equitably among the team members going to Las Vegas. Proof of travel arrangements is required. World Championship qualified teams that do not intend to participate in the Event are not eligible to receive Travel Assistance; in this situation, a runnerup team will now be eligible to receive Travel Assistance and compete in the World Championships. In addition, if one or more players on a qualified team choose not to attend the Event, those team members will not be eligible to share in the Travel Assistance and awards. Page 99: Definition of Object Ball, added sentence, The cue ball is not an object ball. Index Numbers have changed.
