Emerald Valley BCA is a billiards league serving the greater Lane County Oregon area. We strive to promote the sport of billiards while engaging in a fun, competitive atmosphere. Our players are sanctioned nationally with CSI/BCAPL and regionally with Western BCA, which allows our players to qualify and play in events sponsored by those organizations.
Our league has three sessions per year: 8-ball (Jan-May) and 9-ball (Jul-Oct) are paid, sanctioned sessions. The 10-ball session (Nov-Dec) is a fun, social session. We invite you to visit our Facebook page and check back here on evbca.net for more information. Thank you for your support!

Final Stats (Upcoming) and Payout party
Hi Folks,
Final Stats:
I'm entering (weekend of 5/21-5/22) the last batch of Fargo and Score cards that were picked up on 5/21. I will be posting finalized stats no later than 5/30. All score cards must be turned in by midnight on 5/24. If you have any outstanding questions, please address them to me by e-mail, text or phone between 5/30 and 6/3. On 6/4, all payout are finalized and prepared for the 6/5 meeting.
9 Ball Sign up:
Please sign up with me at the party, by text, or e-mail for registration (phone calls or verbal is not good for record keeping). Registration will be open 6/5 to 6/15. Please have your captains name, phone, e-mail and team name prepared.
Payout Party:
We will be covering a lot of material and votes. The meeting will start promptly at 11am. Then we will begin the tournament process around noon. Sonny's has approved our annual Scotch Blind Draw tournament. I need a tournament director. I will also post that to Facebook. Lets get that locked in by end of May.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Below here is the previous update:
A few things need to be addressed here. First, lets talk about the elections upcoming. Then see the notes section as a few home and away locations needed moved for bar overcrowding. I only had to move a few teams but please double check your schedules and packets.
The elections used to be at the end of 8 ball around May for the June to June fiscal year. Now that the fiscal year is January thru December - our offices should follow that change.
To make that happen, we need a member vote. EVBCA needs to vote on whether we change our election year to calendar and if so, when that would start. Below will be the proposals and the official vote will take place in person at the payout party on 6/5.
Proposal 1:
We extend all 3 current positions from June 1st to December 31st.
Proposal 2:
We change our election period to be a 2 year position starting Jan 1st and ending December 31st with the voting taking place during the 9 ball payout session near the years end.
Board recommendation: Strongly suggest that we all vote for extending the officer posts to December 31 and vote on new officers at the end of 9 ball.
This will impact the following 3 positions:
President (currently Darcy)
Secretary (currently Becki)
League Operator (currently Ray)
If the vote passes:
We will vote on the new officers after 9 ball during that payout party. The newly elected will take office on Jan 1st.
I will begin accepting applications no later than September 1st (possibly sooner) and then begin tracking and posting them on the website. We will then hold the elections at the 9 ball payout party.
If the vote fails:
Applications may be submitted on June 6th and we will begin the election process holding a special meeting 2 weeks later.
This would not solve any of the fiscal year issues and would elect new officials between seasons of 8 ball and 9 ball.
Upcoming Notes:
If you believe there is an error in your team or personal stats, please consult your captain to review your teams copy of the score sheet (from the tri-color copy originals). If you believe there are discrepancies after that, please reach out to me via text or e-mail and I'd be happy to review your score cards. Thank you!
Best,
Ray Lingenfelter

Upcoming Notes:
- EVBCA Vote happening on 6/5
- Registration will begin on 6/5 (lasting at least 1 full week) and 9 ball dates posted after discussion at the 8 Ball Payout
- During 9 ball registrations - please have a team name already designated. I'm attempting to use the Fargo scheduler to get some of the human error removed from this system. I am also looking into other schedule building processes (eventually finding one that may take overall team Fargo into account when attempting a schedule).

New Location Added!
(BCA Exclusive - open just for us)
Hi Folks,
I'm excited to add a new high quality venue to our roster. In addition to being a premier golf experience - The Pine Ridge Golf Course would like to become a location for our league.
They have 2 drop pocket tables (photo'd below) with Simonis cloth that were leveled and felted by Sheldon Lebow. In addition to excellent tables, they also have a full liquor bar and food service with seating for 40-60 patrons. Their restaurant and bar typically close at 6pm - but after a discussion with their general manager and events coordinator, they want to be open just for us.
After being invited out and personally experiencing their equipment - I can with out a doubt say that they are on par with the best table play you'll find in our league. (Side Pocket comes to mind) They currently do not have diamond tables, but their choice cloth and true nature make it a smooth and pleasurable experience that is far above the average bar table.
If you are currently looking for a location for good quality pool, feel free to make this your preferred home location for a season and see if you like it. Alternatively, I encourage you to go play a few racks during their regular business hours to see if it's a good fit for you.
Let me know if you have any questions. Enjoy!

GENERAL WARNING:
I must ask you to remain vigilant and attentive if you wish to participate in events this year. Bars are under strict guidelines for public safety and they MUST BE MAINTAINED at all times. Masks recommended indoors and the rules are changing at a pace that is tough to keep up with. Please do your best to be clean, spaced and respectful.
Some may know people who have been affected by COVID, others may not. But please be careful, respect those around you and understand that COVID may end our season prematurely, close particular bars, or in general not provide you with the experience that you expect. Hopefully immunizations and lower risk categories continue to pave the way to a more normal future.
