Canadian Cue Sport Association (CCS)

And on the original dates of April 20 to 24th at the Acadia Rec Centre in Calgary AB.

We are asking all leagues to do everything they can to help promote and make this restart as successful as possible.

In recognition of everything that the leagues have faced with the Covid pandemic, the eligibility has been reduced to 2 weeks from the normal 8.

NB. The ACS has also reduced their eligibility for their Nationals in Vegas in May to 4 weeks from the normal 8.

Every year, we stage Regional and National 8 Ball / 9 Ball Championships for our Member Pool Leagues across Canada.

100% Canadian from our start in 2004, we've grown considerably and are now exclusively recognized by the CBSA - Canadian Billiards and Snooker Association for all Amateur Pool League Play and related Amateur Pool Championships.

They are the governing body for all Billiards competition in Canada as recognized by the World Pool-Billiard Ass'n. They are the ones who decide who represents Canada in official International competition.

The CCS is also directly affiliated with the ACS - American Cue Sports Alliance. That means that their members can come to our tournaments and our members can go to theirs.

What Championships Can We Go To?

All CCS sanctioned League Members may enter any of the following amateur Pool Championships that include Singles, Scotch Doubles and Team Events in both 8Ball and 9Ball:

CANADA - 2021/2022

FALCON/CCS BC's................Penticton BC..Lakeside Resort.......... Cancelled

Not quite ready for prime time?

No worries - all CCS Championships offer Divisional Play based on skill level - Standard, Open and Advanced.

It's all based on Player Rankings which we take very seriously. The fairness of every Championship depends on it.

Every player is assigned one and the Division that you can enter in any Event will be based on it.

Singles Ranking - based on 8 Ball Singles Events; your last 2 performances, prior to the current league year.
Team Ranking - based on 8 Ball Team Events; your last 2 performances, prior to the current league year.

For more detailed information, click on 'Player Rankings' in the middle of the left sidebar.
