TAP Austin is a player's league, run by players. Below is our commitment to giving back to the player by providing a History page of our tournaments. See each tab for a history of our prize and cash payouts to our previous tournament winners! We are the league that gives back more to the players and teams in the Austin area!! If you are from another league, check out our payouts and then ask your league operator how much they payout (The differences may surprise you!!.) Note payouts depend on the number of teams in our league. Obviously the more teams we have in the league the higher the payouts. Example if we have 100 8 Ball teams playing over a 15 week period, our total payout for one session would be $15000 (nearly $7500 for first place). Now you see the difference!! TAP Austin pays out more locally!! Another reason why TAP Austin is Austin's Premier Pool League!
TOTAL Combined Cash and Prize Payout since 2-1-06= approx $48400!!
