Online Pool League Management
Welcome to Pool Leagues of America where you can host your 8-ball league online! PLA gives you all the tools you need to manage your league and allows your players to view all your league info. After you initially set up your league, it’s as easy as just entering the totals from the league’s scoresheet after each round of play (usually weekly).
Some features include:
- No software to install, works with any major web browser
- League info available to any player, 24×7
- Current team standings and scores
- Complete player stats and play history
- Maintenance-free handicapping
- ScheduleBuilder
- Printable schedules, scoresheets, and stats
- Tournament management (single/double elimination)
- Optional advanced features available as your league’s needs grow
- …and more!
Pool Leagues of America is actually two websites in one - the main site is where players can view stats, schedules, play history, etc. The other site is called the LeagueManager and is a special administration area where you can manage your league, enter your stats, and make any customizations.
Works with Most Any League
Chances are, your league can work with Pool Leagues of America. The system can be customized many different ways - for example, you can customize which player breaks first in a match (lag, coin toss, home, or away) - and that’s just the beginning. In all, PLA offers over 50 different options for rules, scoring, skill settings, and general gameplay. And it’s easy - you just pick and choose your settings from lists (see screenshot).
By the way, if your league has specific rules that aren’t covered by the PLA options, we’ve got you covered because the site allows you to define your own custom rules.
Once your league setup is complete, players can print out the rules and options you’ve selected - your league has its own custom rulebook. If you take a look at an existing league’s rules, the entire rulebook is built off their league options, and almost everything you see is customizable! (see sample rulebook)
Overall play is based on a 5-game match between two teams (customizable, of course), each game consisting of two players playing a number of racks. Scoring is simple, based on innings and ball count. And handicaps are based on a 2 to 8 scale, similar to many popular league systems today. (If your league uses a different system, we can help you convert it over).
So, click around if you’d like to learn more. If you’d like to take a look at the site, registration is free (we promise, no spam!) and you can get a feel for what types of league info and stats are available.
