Restarting League – Poll

It has been 6 months since we last had league. At this time, we want to see how viable it is for league to start back up. We have been in contact with Slicks Montrose management to determine the setting in which we will have for League play. It is up to the players to decide how comfortable they feel with the arrangement going forward.

To provide with some general information, here is what we can expect:

  • We are looking to start league back up in October, either the first or second Tuesday. This will allow for 8 to 9 weeks of play time, taking into consideration 2 weeks off for Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays. This will also allow for one week of playoff at the end of the year.
  • We will maintain the same area for league play (coming in from the front door, we will occupy the right side of the establishment).
  • There are 2 options to consider:
    1. Maintain a double header league night where both 8 & 9 are being played. This means all tables will be occupied back to back.
    2. Split 8 & 9 into two separate days to allow for an unoccupied table space between matches. This means league night will end earlier, but it will also be two separate nights of league. At this time, we are looking at 8 ball for Tuesday and 9 ball for Thursday.
  • Upon entry, there is hand sanitizer available for all to use. Masks are required to enter Slicks. However, wearing a mask is not mandatory when playing at your table and while eating/drinking. When stepping away from your table (ie to the bathroom), masks are required. If you wish to wear your mask the entire time, that is fine.
  • Slicks team members have customers’ safety in mind. Their practice at this time: After a table is used, the following are sanitized: pool table, pool balls, pool rack, house cues, tables & chairs wiped down. No ordering at the bar – wait staff orders only.

We want to know who is willing and comfortable with returning to league play (either double header or separate days) and under what circumstances. Please participate in the poll so that we have a clearer picture of what to expect. We will keep the poll open until end of September (2 weeks). At that time, we will make a decision based on the majority vote and let everyone know of plans (if any) going forward. We also ask the team captains to reach out to their fellow team members to participate in the poll, in the event they are not active on social media or the website.

We have all been itching to get back into league. Let’s try and make it a reality SAFELY, and see what we can do to bring a little bit of normalcy into this crazy year.
