APT FEATURES
$10,000 Top 64 Invitational
For the 2018 season, we are going to conduct an awesome end-of-year event for the top 64 APT members in the points race. We are calling this event the $10,000 Top 64 Invitational. The top 64 APT members will be invited to participate. That's right...non-members will not be allowed. There will be a $75 entry fee and the APT will add $5,200 for a total prize fund of $10,000! Best of all, everyone who finishes in the top 16 will take home at least $500! Click here to learn more.
Progressive Big Rack Contest
At each APT event, we conduct a progressive Big Rack contest. Big Rack tickets are sold (only $1 each or $20 for 25) throughout the first day and everyone who registers online receives five (5) free break & run tickets when they purchase five (5) or more at the event. At approximately 8 p.m., one ticket is randomly selected. The person with the winning ticket has the opportunity to break a 10-ball rack and earn money for every ball legally pocketed after the break. It is an excellent way to earn big bucks!

$10 Entry Fee Discount
For every new APT player that you bring to an APT event, you receive $10 off your entry fee! For example, if your entry fee in $50 but you bring two (2) new players and they sign in with you at the tournament, you get $20 off! Bring five (5) friends and your entry is free!
Free Entry Giveaway Every Month
Each month (excluding VA State Championship events), someone is randomly chosen from our email subscriber list to receive free entry into that month's event. No strings attached! Click here to learn more and make sure to join our email list today.
2nd Chance Tournaments
Ever get a few bad rolls? Don't go home early - you deserve a 2nd chance! For those who are eliminated on the first day, we almost always hold a 2nd Chance tournament on the 2nd day. The entry fee for 2nd chance events is half of the normal entry fee and points are also awarded. It's an excellent way to play more, earn more, and stay up in the APT points race!
Top Female Bonus
At each APT event (excluding VA State Championship events), the highest placing female will win a cash prize based on how many females participate. If two or more females finish in the same position, there will be a sudden death playoff for the prize. NOTE: Females with a Fargo Rating of 660 or higher are not eligible for the bonus.
