Cleveland-These are the standings for the Shooters Pool League at the end of the games on March 1.

This is the seventh season of an annual pool league which shoots on Monday nights from October through April. Although it is a semicompetitive league, all skill levels may compete as matches are based on individual handicaps. A team is made up of 4 to 7 players. Play begins at 7:30 pm at the home team's bar, where four matches are played each week consisting of as many games as necessary for one player to win as many games as their handicap.

For more information, contact the league by calling Dave at 440-871-4699 or buteohawk1@att.net.
