The Cup Match Events Schedule for 2023 has been determined!

ADVANCED VBC PLAYERS MARK YOUR CALENDARS!

The Feeney & Ladies Cup Tournaments are the VBC's Permiere Tournament Events of the year for our most Advanced Men and Women VBC Player/Members. Each group plays a series of doubles and singles matches that include both 8 ball and 9 ball over three days of competition at La Hacienda Recreation in February.

Eligible Captains are determined from the prior year's individual performance with their team and the responsibility will roll down the list until somone is available and willing to be captains.The VBC will send out a notice to members announcing the opening of the draft. After a few weeks, the draft closes and two Teams of 14 players each are "drafted" from the list of VCB players that signed up for the draft list by the captains. All particpants must be VBC members or become one, to be included on the list. Once teams have been drafted, teams will practice over a period of weeks to prepare for the events.
