In association with Family Billiards, California Billiards, Freezer’s Ice House and Point of View Pool Media, the highly anticipated, ‘West Coast Swing’ of pool tournaments and action are confirmed with dates and added monies. Now in its 6th year, ‘The West Coast Swing’ events are a coordinated effort between POV Pool Media the west coast’s most popular billiard venues with a mission to promote the best that cue-sports have to offer.
The West Coast Swing events and tournaments are regarded as a series of stepping stones for professional pool players and top amateurs, seeking the high-level competition and generous payouts whilst on the road to Las Vegas to play the CSI U.S. Open 10-ball and 8-ball Championship events, held annually at ‘Griffs’ Bar and Billiards. Each year, the West Coast Swing events follow the same rules of thumb: high-powered, multi-format pool tournaments featuring, top-level competition at the best venues in the western United States with the most respected tournament staff available.
This year’s ‘West Coast Swing’ events are sure to pack a punch with the addition of Freezer’s Ice House to the 2018 schedule, so we urge anyone with talent to ‘save the dates’!
