During the past six to eight months, several of our local residents have qualified to participate in one of the nation’s largest regional amateur APA singles billiards tournament during March 3 to 4 in Charleston, SC for a trip to Las Vegas where they will be competing nationally for cash prizes totaling over $550,000.00.
Pictured from left to right, Randy Jones, Thomas Strickland, Randall Byrd, Sr, Vernard Pearsey and Paul Arredondo (not pictured) will be playing in either the 8-ball tournament (Randy Jones & Vernard Pearsey) or the 9-ball tournament (Randall Byrd, Sr, Randy Jones, Thomas Strickland and Paul Arredondo). They play locally at the Appling County War Veterans Club and Danny’s Billiards.
