The Legends and Champions pool Tour will be continuing their great relationship with Drifters Pool Room in Lincoln, Nebraska on Friday February 8th, 9th and 10th for the first ever Legends and Champions Pro-Challenge.
"This concept has been very well received by all the pool rooms I have spoken to and from the feedback I am getting a tremendous response by the local pool communities" said Mark Cantrill of the Legends and Champions Pool Tour.
Drifters Pool Room will be holding 4 qualifiers between now and the weekend of february 8th. One qualifier for each of the following 8-Ball, 9-Ball, 14.1 and one pocket. The winner of each qualifier will become part of "Team Drifters" and will play a set of that game against Nick Varner on the weekend of the event and try to bring home a win for "Team Drifters". There will be trophys and prizes for all the players in this event along with possible bragging rights IF the challengers beat 8 time World Champion Nick Varner and remembering that the Kentucky Colonel holds a World title in each of these events Team Drifters are going to have their hands full.
Here is the schedule for the qualifiers at Drifters.
