This is our first week awarding bonus points (50 for matching scoresheets + 50 for completed league dues). If you look at the match logs once logged in, you will be able to see the bonus points added at the bottom.
With the addition of bonus points, we got a lot of questions about digital pay options. Just as a reminder, here is a recap:
- We have 3 digital payment options:
- VENMO: @houstonusapl
- CASHAPP: $houstonusapl
- ZELLEPAY: admin@houstonusapl.com
- When utilizing digital pay, only one transaction per team please! This makes tracking much easier.
We also got a lot of questions regarding the scoring app. Please review the Scoring App How-To Guide. There are screenshots available and it will answer most of the questions asked.
With the use of the scoring app, any team wishing to start early may do so if they coordinate with the opposing team. We understand some players live further away than others and would like to get done earlier. However, both teams must be in agreeance for this to work. Make sure you have players who are going to be present for an earlier start! If one team starts early but does not have the number available to play, the opposing team can still call a forfeit or force a playback. League rules still apply regardless of what time teams choose to start. Official start time of league every week is at 7:30 PM.
As we complete Week 3 and head towards the 4th Week, please keep in mind that roster changes are still open for 2 more weeks. Roster changes are limited to the first 5 weeks. After that, the only way to make a roster change is for survival purposes. So make sure you like your teammates! (I kid I kid, we love everyone!) 🙂
If you have not yet noticed, there were a few additions to the website. We have added an Event calendar that ties in with upcoming Events. It will display the next 3 events coming up, including league nights as well as any other tournaments we may have going on (which at this time is a 9 Ball Open at Slicks on Fountain View on 02/22/20). We also added the “How to Win Vegas” portion, accessible under the ABOUT section. This is a quick summary of ways to win the Vegas trip, as well as requirements such as minimum number of weeks played in order to qualify (answer is 8), number of original members (answer is 2), etc.
Table assignments for Week 4:
Spooky Action [16 / 17]
Cue Tang Clan [18 / 19] Night Moves [14 / 15] Tuff Break [14 / 15] |

Please let us know if there is anything else you would like to see added, mentioned, clarified, etc. If you have a question about something, more than likely someone else has the same question too, so feel free to bring it to our attention. See you next week, and enjoy Superbowl weekend! (Don’t forget about the Puppy Bowl!) 🐶 🐕 🐱
