Kohler quickly rose to internet stardom with a number of viral video hits that featured billiard shots that seem to defy physics. Some of his videos have been viewed nearly 10 million times by people from all areas of the globe.

Western Carolina APA started developing Leagues 6 years ago and is currently running Leagues in Macon, Jackson, Haywood, and Cherokee Counties, with a total of 115 Teams consisting of formats ranging from 8-Ball and 9-Ball Open Leagues to Masters, Ladies, Jack and Jill, 8-Ball, and 9-Ball Double Leagues, in addition to our Junior League.
The APA (American Poolplayers Association), based in Lake Saint Louis, Mo., sanctions the world’s largest amateur pool league, known as the APA Pool League throughout the United States, and as the Canadian Pool League in Canada. Nearly 260,000 members compete in weekly 8-Ball and 9-Ball league play. The APA is generally recognized as the Governing Body of Amateur Pool, having established the official rules, championships, formats, and handicap systems for the sport of amateur billiards.
The APA produces four major tournaments each year—the APA World Pool Championships, the APA Poolplayer Championships, the Junior Championships and the U.S. Amateur Championship—that, together, pay out nearly $1.5 Million in cash and prizes annually! In 2010, the APA World Pool Championships were recognized by Guinness World Records as the “world’s largest pool tournament.”
The APA and its championships are sponsored by Aramith, Action Cues and PoolDawg.
