Inverness Pool Academy

🎱 Academy is back this Sunday! 🎱

After a couple of weeks off, we’re back and ready to get stuck in! 💪

The tables have recently been recovered and levelled for competitions, so the playing conditions will be top notch. 👌

If everyone could try to arrive 5 minutes early, that would be great. We’ll run through a couple of things together before the session gets underway.

⚽️ Due to football being played at the same time as the academy for the next two sessions. No Rangers or Celtic tops are to be worn ⚽️

Looking forward to seeing everyone!

📸 Here are a few pictures from our last session…

See you Sunday! 🎱

A Big Step Forward for Inverness Pool Academy 🎱

Delighted to share that I attended the Inverness Pool League AGM today and put forward three proposals to make the league more accessible to under-18s — and all three were accepted! 🙌

✅ No registration fees for under-18s.
✅ Inverness Pool Academy members can compete in League competitions.
✅ Inverness Pool Academy can enter a team into the pool league and play all our matches at a home venue.

This is a massive step forward for junior pool in Inverness and gives young players more opportunities to compete, develop and gain valuable experience.

The Academy members can now enter cup competitions, with the aim of entering an Inverness Pool Academy team in the league next year. Hopefully this gives all our youngsters even more motivation to keep improving their game! 🎱💪

A huge positive for the future of pool in Inverness! 👏

Hopefully next year we will have someone representing Inverness Pool Academy at this competition. High standard but with another year under our belts I’m sure we will have enough quality to compete and gain massive experience from a outstanding competition 🎱

🎱 No Academy This Week 🎱

With no academy session this week, we’d like to take the opportunity to say a huge thank you to everyone who has helped make our academy what it is.

First of all, a massive thank you to our sponsors:

* Highland Boring
* Mikeysline (Bobby Sahota)
* Cairngorm Group
* The Gavin Phillips Highland Pool Tour

Your support has allowed us to become fully equipped and continue providing free coaching sessions.

We’d also like to thank The Chieftain Hotel for allowing us to use their venue, and Raigmore Motel for helping us get everything off the ground in the early days. We truly appreciate your support.

As well as providing all the equipment needed for our sessions, we also have cues and cue cases available at majorly discounted prices for our academy members, helping the kids continue to develop their game with quality equipment.

Finally, none of this would be possible without our incredible volunteers, who give up their time to help coach and support the academy:

👏 David B (Gemma Berrie)
👏 Bobby Sahota
👏 Ally Mooney
👏 David Sinclair
👏 Stephen Hepburn
👏 Martin Forbes
👏 Paul Graham

Thank you all for your hard work and commitment. The academy continues to grow because of the amazing support from you all and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.

Have a great weekend everyone, and we’ll see you all back at the tables next week! 🎱💙

🎱 Another cracking Inverness Pool Academy session today, with 11 players attending!

A big thank you to Bez (Gemma Berrie) Bobby Sahota and David Sinclair for stepping in to run the academy last week while I was away, and also for coming along again today. Your help is hugely appreciated. 👏

We’re still looking for volunteers over the next couple of months to help keep the academy running as regularly as possible. If you’d be interested in lending a hand, please get in touch.

📅 Next Academy: Saturday 16th August

See you all then! 🎱
