gmcnally Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 would there be a big demand for a proper pool hall in lerwick? Maybe, the legion has a pool hall. It all comes down to your outlay (premises, business rates), and how many people you'd need playing per day to make it work / turn a reasonable profit, and if you could secure the support of the pool association for finals or cups that would help. A bar license may be hard to get and would limit the age group. Plus alcohol and pool tables don't mix with the damage caused by drunkenness and spillage! So perhaps also aiming it at families might set you apart, and having other things like arcade machines, air hockey etc. could widen appeal.agree in sort. tables in the legion aint that good from what i remember. dont play there much but it would basically be like the anglin club only in town. you would ideally need a few teams also playing from the club and at least 100 adult members. cup games would be a great help also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2lb_saucermeat Posted July 3, 2012 Report Share Posted July 3, 2012 Does anyone know when the AGM for the Shetland Pool is? Not sure their website is used anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sandicheex Posted July 4, 2012 Report Share Posted July 4, 2012 The pool association AGM is usually held in the first full week of August. The actual date has not been finalised for this year yet but keep an eye on the Shetland times as well as the SPA website. The AGM is always advertised during the 2 weeks immediately preceding it, so keep an eye out at the end of this month. I will try to remember to put it on here as soon as it's finalised but, like siffy, I out in a lot of work for SPA on top of the day job and everything else so it may slip my mind since I'm not yet in the habit of commenting on this site.
