American CueSports Alliance
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The American CueSports Alliance (abbreviated ACS) is a non-profit league-sanctioning body for billiards in the United States. They produce national billiards tournaments on an annual basis, in areas such as eight ball and nine ball.
The ACS's stated mission is "to heighten the interest and awareness of cue sports through the support and sanctioning of organized competition throughout the United States and North America." The ACS's headquarters are located in Green Bay, Wisconsin, and Cecil Messer is the current president.
The ACS is currently working with the United States Olympic Committee to obtain official recognition for billiards as an Olympic sport.
