<description><![CDATA[ <u><b>Challenge of Champions Tournament:</b></u> This is the weekend for the Challenge of Champions tourney.  This tourney is for the division winners from the spring session.  It will be held on June 4th and 5th...The matches will be played at two separate locations in the Palatine area.  (Idols and Fox and Hounds)  Teams will play 3 rounds to earn a Citywide qualification. <br /><br /><u><b>Split first round:</b></u>  Even though we have a total of 19 tables, there are more teams playing than I have tables to play on in one round, so the first round will be split between Friday PM (7:30 pm start), and Saturday AM (10 am start). Teams will get their choice of start date until the table limit is reached on either day. (First come, first served. As you win, please call me with your choice.) <br /><br /><u><b>Idols</b></u> is located at 1601 N. Rand Rd in Palatine  (That is the intersection of Rand and Dundee roads.)<br /><br /><u><b>Fox and Hounds</b></u> is located at 910 West Dundee in Arlington Hts.  (That is near the intersection of 53 and Dundee...and about a mile down the road from Idol's. <br /><br /><br /><br />Brad Hall<br />Chicago APA<br />773-575-4157]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[ Mike Massey is an American professional pool player, best known as a trick shot artist since the late 1970s. He has given substantial visibility to the sport by traveling the globe to perform exhibitions. Today, he is going to be in Chicago. Massey was inducted into the BCA Hall of Fame on April 7, 2005. In 2007, he was ranked #8 in Pool &amp; Billiard Magazine's Favorite Players poll.<br /><br />Above and beyond being an excellent player and trick shot artist, he is a GREAT showman. Whatever the cost of a ticket, his shows are always worth the price of admission, but this one is FREE to current APA players. You are encouraged to bring NON-APA players to this event also. They will have to join the league to watch the show, but there will be a reduced price for the membership...$15 for the rest of the year. (This special price is for any new or returning players not players currently on rosters...)<br /><br />This show will be held at the <b>Idol's Sportsclub, located at 1601 N. Rand Rd in Palatine.</b> (At the corner of Rand and Dundee Rd) This show will be held in the "back" room at Idols.  The room will be cleared of all but one table, and there will be plenty of space to see the exhibition. <br /><br />Please come out to enjoy the show and bring a friend.<br /><br />Brad Hall<br />Chicago APA<br />773-575-4157]]></description>
