Welcome

This site describes a mixture of current and historical information about the
Shooter’s Thursday Night 8 BALL League in Grayslake, Illinois.

Weather does not stop a league night from being held – unless the venue (Shooter’s) cannot be open for business.

The 2025 Winter season began on Thursday, 16Jan2025. We have 19 teams this season which is scheduled to finish on 29May2025. See Current Season Status post for elaborated information. The next open-to-the public signup night will happen on the evening of 05Jun2025 for the 2025 Summer season.

This league was founded in 1994 by the late Jim Harp and has operated in consecutive calendar years ever since. Each year has 3-6 independent seasons based on team quantity.
We were BCA sanctioned prior to 2015.
Except for our 2020 seasons, we were sanctioned with ACS from 2015 through 2022. The league captains voted to rejoin ACS sanctioning at the 2023_4 Winter Season’s meeting night.

We joined our 4th and current venue in Sept, 2010.
