Q: Why play North Texas TAP?

A: North Texas TAP is a league run by people who care about you. TAP gives players of all skill levels the chance to play in a competitive atmosphere against various types of players. Every player will play to the best of their ability for the chance of monetary reward at the end of each session. In just our first two sessions, we will have given back $5000! How much is your league giving back to its players?

Q: Will I become a better pool player if I join a league?

A: Your skills will improve because in game situations you will have a coach who can use time-outs to help you with deciding which shot to take and explain why. If your skill level is two(2), the coach can give you unlimited assistance throughout your match. In addition, many teams practice together in off nights and you will receive help with your game from the best players on your team. After all, your teammates have an investment in you and want to help you improve your skills.

Q: Do I have to show up every night the league plays?

A: Because your team consists of eight(8) players and only five(5) play each league night, it will not be necessary for you to be present for every match. You should communicate with your team captain in order for him/her to plan who will play each night.

Q: Who determines my handicap?

A: All TAP handicaps are done by computer in the TAP corporate office. Your handicap is based on all the stats entered into a computer from score sheets from all of your matches played. Each calculation is composed of 80 algorithms and your handicap is an average of all TAP players in the U.S. and Canada. Ask your league operator if they can or have ever changed your handicap. The answer is YES they can. This greatly influences you when you compete on a National level.

Q: What does it cost to play?

A: We don't ask you for more money just because gas prices went up! Membership in TAP costs $20 and it costs $7 per player each week you play. Also you don't have to pay for patches in our league!

Q: What nights do you play league?

A: TAP is a players league. The nights you see currently are when are players want to play. If you can't play on the nights listed, call or email me to see about starting another league night. New Divisions must have at least 4 teams to start.
