2010: THE ROOKIES

A new season is upon us, and that means a new crop of competitors. Here are the newest faces to Poolball:

Brahm "The Scene" Levine: Brahm has actually been playing for years but never got the proper introduction he deserves. "The Scene" brings an unparalleled toughness to the game that other competitors both despise and fear. His thuggish tactics include "involuntary" splashing in the face, strategically poor passing, trash talking, and throwing the ball out of the pool just to name a few. The NBA had its Bad Boy Pistons, college football had the heyday of the Miami Hurricanes, and now Poolball has Brahm Levine.
Mitch Mestel: Mitch talks a big game, but manages to back up his tough talk with stellar play in the pool. He has an impeccable shooting touch coupled with an intense mentality. After years of sitting on the sidelines, Mitch is ready to make his Poolball debut this season as one of the most highly-touted and highly-anticipated rookies of all time.
Adam "T-Bone" Greenberg: The big lefty is an imposing force in the water. Bone is a streaky performer, but once he gets on a roll there's not much that can beat him. He's also dominant around the net, using his size to control the boards. As one of the only lefties in the league, he's capable of throwing off his opponents by playing the opposite side of the net.
"Cousin" David Heuff: After starting out as the league's referee, David has begun making the transition into Pool. His game is still a bit rusty but nobody can ever knock his will to succeed or his dedication to improve.

Ian Beckenstein: Although Ian would probably prefer to play on the pool if it were frozen, he still puts his time in the water. He has an unorthodox form on his jumper but it is steadily improving.
Rico Fields: Rico uses a soft shooting touch and his impeccable athleticism around the net to his advantage. His well-rounded game is something other competitors should fear. He is arguable the most impressive physical specimen in the league, with a long wingspan and incredible jumping ability.

Jake Wolf Greenberg: Jake is a dedicated competitor in the pool. His shooting touch is hot-and-cold but he is always prepared for a challenge and is one of the most dedicated to improving. Jake's strongest aspect is his unparalleled love for the game.

2010 Season Set To Begin!

The facilities are being prepped and should be ready to use as early as this upcoming week!
Defending champion Tyler Lemco heads into the 2010 season with a whole slew of competitors aiming at his crown.
Last season saw many newcomers added to the Poolball roster. The summer of 2009 saw notable debuts from Jason Goodman, Glen Schwartz, and Ian Beckinstein, all of whom will look to improve upon their rookie seasons.
Such veterans as Ken Macintosh, Jon Stein, Joe Alfie, Rob Myerson and Mike Habib are sure to make appearances this season as well. With perennial-superstar Alex Perrault currently on sabbatical, the #1 Contender spot is currently up for grabs. The playing field is literally wide open and anybody can easily climb the rankings.
Look for Mitch Mestel to make his much anticipated debut within the near future. Mitch is a highly-hyped prospect, but it's yet to be seen if he can actually produce.
Check back to the site throughout the season for constant updates!
