On June 14, 2014, the new Tiger Florida Tour debuts in Florida, capitalizing on the successful five-year run of the Flamingo Billiards Tour.
The FBT was started as a WPBA-recognized Regional Tour and is a stepping stone to the Women’s Professional Billiards Association. The Flamingo Billiards Tour also holds tournaments that are open to both men and women, as well as juniors events.
“We are sad to say good-bye to our beloved Flamingo. However, we believe that our new name and title sponsor will take the awareness of our tour and all of our sponsors to the next level,” said Tour Director Mimi McAndrews. “The Regional Tour will continue without interruption. We look forward to having more open tournaments as well.”
Since 1997, Tiger Products has quickly become one of the top cue makers in the industry, with its Ultra-X high performance, Ultra-X LD and Pro-X low deflection shafts. Tiger also offers a variety of leather wraps and the very original STACK® Leather Wrap, as well as other popular billiards accessories.
“Teaming with the Flamingo Billiards Tour is a great partnership for us and a natural extension of our marketing efforts. We have a history of supporting successful billiards tours around the country. The decision to be the title sponsor for the Flamingo Billiards Tour was a no-brainer. Tiger is excited to have a greater presence in Florida,” says Tony Kalamdaryan, CEO of Tiger Products, Inc.
Tour Stop #4 is scheduled for June 14, 2014 at Brown’s Billiards in Holly Hill, Florida. The Flamingo Billiards Tour thanks all of the sponsors who have supported the Tour this year: Ozone Billiards, Simonis Cloth Satellite Tour, Boynton Billiards, Great Lakes Billiards, and Martz Cues.
