Zim's Rack

Zim's Rack 8-Ball league was formed in 2005 to offer a fair, more rewarding league for players and bar owners. We offer the highest payout for the amount taken in from the players in our areas.

We have three sessions per year; Winter, Spring and Summer. We have many divisions available to play in and divisions are divided by small geographical areas, allowing the players a shorter distance of travel on a weekly basis.

A unique handicap and scoring system is used to calculate individual and team standings. We run a 15-17 week schedule, NO PLAYOFFS, FIGHT TO THE FINISH! We feel that this removes the desire for players to sandbag.

Teams may have as many players on their roster as they wish, but only 4 will play each weekly match. Teams and players may qualify for Annual events, if they meet the event criteria.

SESSION TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP (STC)

The top 40% of our teams will qualify to compete in the STC. We will have 2 sessions, Winter & Spring, that teams can qualify in. The teams eligibility will be pro-rated by the number of teams participating in each division. This will be an ADDED MONEY event that will be held at Baxters Sports Bar in Fairview Heights, Illinois and also be the same day & location as our Awards Night!

ANNUAL TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP (ATC)

The top team from the Winter and Spring Session Team Championships will match up against each other at the Host Location of the team with the highest average. The 2010-2011 League season starts late September- early October and is projected to have the Annual Team Championship held at a location to be determined.

SESSION MVP EVENT

The MVP's from each division will compete against each other to determine who is the Session MVP.

ANNUAL MVP OF THE YEAR EVENT

The MVP from each session, Winter & Spring, will qualify for the MVP of the Year event, which will be held 2 hours prior to the ATC at the same location.
