It is that time of year again -- time for nominations for the 11th annual One Pocket Hall of Fame ballot.
Over the last ten years we have elected many players into the One Pocket Hall of Fame, both for One Pocket and for Bank Pool.
Yet there are many other Banks & One Pocket greats who certainly deserve to be honored, and it is time now to turn our attention to this year's slate of deserving candidates.
You are all now invited to use this nominations thread to suggest names for this year’s ballot, or to comment on the candidates that others have suggested. Later this month the final list of candidates will be placed into the official Hall of Fame ballots, and the voting can begin!
So, who do you like for this year’s nominees, and why should they join the legends already in the One Pocket Hall of Fame? Don’t be shy about sharing your knowledge or opinions about who belongs on this year’s ballot; this is the right time to air it out. The more we all know about the candidates, the better informed we will be when it comes time to vote, and the more unified we will be in celebrating this coming January’s inductees.
Selection criteria for the One Pocket Hall of Fame:
1. Great Players who have demonstrated their excellence in tournament competition over time.
2. After Hours Legends who have demonstrated their excellence and their heart by matching up against the best of their time.
3. Teachers and Promoters of the game who have had a lasting impact on the growth and popularity of One Pocket & Banks.
Please note that players do not have to be 'tournament winners' to qualify for the One Pocket Hall of Fame – action guys are a huge part of the legacy of both One Pocket & Banks. Likewise, people that have had more of an impact as teachers and promoters of these games are clearly invited too.
The 11th annual One Pocket Hall of Fame dinner is already scheduled for Tuesday, January 27, 2015 during the 17th Annual Derby City Classic. The dinner is a fantastic event with a very entertaining cast of characters. Besides the current inductees and their families and friends, all the previous inductees are also invited, and the crowd becomes a veritable who’s who of pool action over the last 50 years. Make your reservations early!
Please note, in order to vote this year, you will have to be a “Verified Member”. If you feel you should be verified, and are not, please explain either by private message to me, or by using the Contact Us email form. Be patient, this is done manually, case by case.
And finally, please get involved in the discussion; Everyone here should either have questions or answers or both, so there is no excuse not to jump in!
