Nov. 13 thru Nov. 16, 2014 

TAP, Pools Amateur Tour held their annual National Team Event, Rally Rodeo in TX Dream Team, Scotch Doubles and Singles competitions in Dallas, TX at the prestigious Hilton Anatole. Players and Teams from the USA and Canada winning their local qualifiers arrived in Dallas with their aim on the National titles in 8, 9 and 10 ball competition. This was the largest TAP event and National host location to date in the history of the league.

This event for TAP, Pools Amateur Tour kicked off with Registration into the event starting Wednesday afternoon. Wednesday night the party was started and the Licensee/Operator scotch doubles tournament was held. Thursday morning the TAP National 8 and 9 Ball Teams started their competition, Friday morning Rally Dream team and singles started with all events continuing Saturday with 10 Ball and Scotch Doubles National Teams starting for the first National event ever for these two products and finishing Sunday when the finals were played and the champions were crowned.

TAP loves making history and they did again, with the use of the TAP Phone App – Scorekeeper 2.0 by RunOut Apps. 9 and 10 Ball Teams used the phone app during their national competition at the event. Scores went in directly from the app to TAPs Pool Net system. All TAP Players scoresheets from weekly play, local tournaments and National tournaments are submitted into the universal handicap system powered by Pool Net. Implementation of using the phone app is starting by all TAP licensees and operators for weekly play, and will start to be used for local tournaments and national tournaments as well. This is the first stage of what is to come”¦TAP is proud to be the first league that has this ability, proving once again we are for the player, providing the most solid handicaps, based on ability in all levels of league play .

Loyd would have been proud of the event, as he personally selected the location and what a location it was. The Hilton Anatole was and is a grand site, which boasted many amenities. Located in the Marketplace of Dallas Texas, it was a huge success having it as the host location.
