JPNEWT
is proud to be a women's tour that is recognized
by the WPBA. We started many years ago by Touring
Pro Dawn Hopkins when there was a need for a place
for the women to play in the Northeast part of
the country.
At this point, most of our tournaments take place
in New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania. We
would especially like to thank Primetime Billiards
in South Amboy, NJ and Comet Billiards in Parsippany,
NJ for their continued support! Historically,
all of our events have included cash prizes and
a qualifier to the WPBA pro events.
Morgan Steinman and Caroline Pao are our most
recent Players of the Year and both are now finding
success at the next level. 2007 had Morgan take
first place and Caroline second at the end of
the year. Zinnie Panju, Supadra Boopasook, Candi
Rego, Karen Coor, My-Hahn Lac, Sharon O'Hanlon,
Buffy Jolie, and Erica Testa rounded out the top
10. We have had many other notable players from
across the country join our events and compete.
In 2008, longtime tour coordinator Barbara Stock
is turning over the leadership reins to Linda
Haywood Shea. We have appreciated all of Barbara's
efforts and look forward to the expertise and
relationships to come under Linda's guidance.
She has a long history with the WPBA and the Northeast
tours. Linda can be reached at sheaece@aol.com.
Thank you, for your support of women in billiards!!
