On top of everything that the sponsors do for the tournament, nothing is more rewarding for the players than the
Daily Cue Raffles that take place on 6 different occasions. Thousands of dollars of cues are given away at this event
thanks to Tournament Sponsors Viking Cue and FURY.
Every year the VNEA acknowledges some special people behind the scenes who work incredibly hard throughout the
tournament. The following people were awarded beautiful plaques for their hard work:
· Statistician Of The Year - Stephanie Grimshaw
· Set-Up Person Of The Year - John Maestry
· Referees Of The Year - Fred Johnson
In addition to daily cue giveaways, our Tournament Sponsors
continued their support of the Annual VNEA Championships by
giving away thousands of dollars in merchandise to banquet
attendees.
A beautiful
FURY Cue and Viking Cue were given
away as well as a phenomenal
Valley Home Pool Table.
Thank you to our sponsors for these gracious donations.
To top off an incredible night of music, dinner, awards and
camaraderie, the VNEA brought on the
LAUGHTER!
The mega-
talented comedian ELON GOLD took the stage to bring the
show to a hilarious ending with a barrage of comedy that left
the crowd with a smile on its face... which is exactly what the VNEA is all about!
VNEA Leagues Continue To Be...
Simply The Best!
