When playing pool in a league or tournament, choosing a fun, catchy, and creative team name can reflect your team’s personality and boost morale. Be respectful, as offensive names are prohibited by the American Pool players Association.
Consider using billiards terms or local references, and remember, pool is a type of billiards played on a table with six pockets.
A good name can enhance the team’s experience, and here’s a list of clever and funny names to inspire you.
