Players Fund - About

What is MPF?!? Is the big question that everyone keeps asking me. Well for a few years now we have been wanting to create a players fund were we have fun games night, raise some money to subsidize trips away.

Well after many hours of Kez and I trying to work out how this would work we figured that it need someone who would be dedicated to just fundraising for you guys, the players and I put my hand up to take on this role. With there being many pool tournaments over east I felt it was unfair as it costs us West Australian so much to get there, as we need to fly.

Know as most people are like me and the cost of Accommodation, entry fees and airfares would be too much, yet I’d really like to take part. So if I can raise enough money I’d like to reduce some of these costs and sent a few players over to these challenges and give people the taste of what is out there. We would also like to get enough money so we can send a support team over to New Zealand with the winning Elite team next year. Now Many people have asked me how am I going to choose who will be the lucky people able to go and how many will be going? Well for how many people go will come down to you guys as it will depend on how much money we raise. Now for who will go there will be a few different ways, of course there will be the knockout comps. If I only did it as knock out comps it would be unfair for those who come down for every games night to support the fund but haven’t quite developed those pro skills that some of you have and it would be unfair for them. So I’m going to create a tally board which will be left up in the venue and for different competitions you enter you will receive so many points and the top of that chart will also get to go, as well as doing a wild card draw from this ladder for those that work away or have other commitments.

So if you guys would like to have the chance to go over east or to NZ even, then you need to get behind MPF, which is created for you guys, by entering as many Games and theme nights and the many raffles that I will be doing through out the year. Well that is about it for me, if you have any questions or suggestions for MPF don’t hesitate to come and talk to me and I’ll try and help.
