Fargo-rated handicaps
Every player rated by FargoRate, so a newer shooter gets a real match against a strong one.
What a league season includes
The $65 weekly team fee buys a roster spot, a Fargo rating that keeps every match fair, and a prize fund that sends local players to Las Vegas. Find the room closest to you on the divisions list, then read what each part of the season does.
The three big parts
Sun to Fri
Weekly team divisions
8-ball, 9-ball, 10-ball and mixed nights, rosters up to 8, five sets a match.
Divisions run 4 to 16 teams across Winter (16 weeks), Summer (15) and Fall (15), with team playoffs in November and early December.
Las Vegas
Prize funds and Nationals
Most of every weekly team fee sits in escrow and sends local teams to Las Vegas.
