So not banned from Golden Cue, WEPF Worlds, and I think Champion of Champions.
Hopefully someone like Shap can confirm that. | My opinion should just be accepted as objectivity itself. |

golden cue is an EPA cardholer event. i went in it 3 years ago, for the first time, an they initially told me i had to register for the EPA. i was already playing county, so it didnt matter, but i was under the impression if we entered a team this year i would of had to reregister.
| as long as you're in the discussion as to who the greatest in your sport is, you've done all right. |

So, basically, before a player signs-up for his EPA membership he can play all the Blackball "County" he likes without recourse - it's only after he has signed-up for his EPA membership that he can no longer play Blackball "County". What length of ban/fine an EPA cardholder found guilty of playing Blackball "County" would receive is anyone's guess (they may not be banned at all, just fined, or perhaps a combination of the two...), but any ban/unpaid fine would prevent them from playing in any EPA event, cardholder or otherwise.

Golden Cue is not a cardholder event.

Unless they have outstanding debt or disciplinary sanctions to EPA, anyone can enter the Golden Cue.

So the fact that you don't have to be a cardholder does not mean that a banned player can enter. If someone's been banned from all EPA events then I think it'd be quite disingenuous to assume that they're not banned from this one unless explictly and specifically told that they're banned from it. Or, put another way, I don't think it's necessary for the entry form for any event to say that one of the requirements for entry to the event is that you haven't been banned from it.

Not to labour a point, but if the EPA aren't the official stated runners of the event, as it is indepentandlty, how can anything under their banning policy affect the entrants ?? | Always beware the smiling stranger who offers a handshake....... |

Huh? We are talking about the Golden Cue here. I think there are at least some hints in the entry form (available on the EPA website), like the way it consistently refers to the event as "The EPA Golden Cue", the way several of the rules refer to "the organisers EPA", oh and there's rule 20 where it says "Organised by English Pool Association".

Very good comment Rupe but as someone said on another forum topic pool players very rarely actually read the forms they sign.  Edited by user 16 April 2012 10:33:23(UTC)
