The Tanzania Pool Association (TAPA) has announced plans to host the National Pool Championship from July 5 to 7, 2025, in Iringa Region.
Speaking to The Respondent Online on June 12, 2025, TAPA Secretary General Abdallah Omar Abdullah confirmed that registration for both clubs and individual players is now open, with the deadline set for June 30.
Abdullah emphasized that the primary goal of the tournament is to scout and select top talent for the national team, which will represent Tanzania in various international competitions later this year.
“This year’s championship will feature multiple categories, including club-level competitions for both men and women (24 teams), individual events for women (32 players) and men (128 players), as well as a special category for players with disabilities (16 participants),” said Abdullah.
He urged clubs and players to register early to ensure smooth logistical preparations by the Technical Committee.
Abdullah also acknowledged ongoing sponsorship challenges but expressed gratitude to the stakeholders who have already stepped in to support the event through funding and prize contributions.
