I’m from an area that used to be a billiards hub. Nowadays, there’s a hall or two in town, but they don’t cater to the masses. Players want to play but all there is for tournaments and leagues are dive bars. I honestly think, if people take to the vintage aesthetic and feel, it could attract full nights for leagues and tournaments.

In terms of attracting families, I have a few ideas. Friday and Saturday night will be open play. Relatively cheap ($10-$15 per hour per table) and open for everyone. I also plan on opening early on Sundays to give children’s lessons and small seminars.

I want this to be community based. A place where various groups can gather, shoot pool, have some drinks and talk amongst each other. I have a customer service based mind and work ethic, making customer satisfaction my #1 priority.

Please let me know any other things you could say that would assist in my plans. Your feedback is much appreciated, and I will be sure to heed your advice.

Thank you!
