The World Qualifier is an annual tournament that takes place at the end of the League year. The winner of the World Qualifier receives travel assistance to Las Vegas and the opportunity to represent Everglades APA in the World Pool Championships.
 
Travel Assistance for the World Pool Championships
 
The Travel Assistance Fund will be used to pay travel expenses actually incurred by the members of those teams advancing to the APA World Pool Championships. If a team chooses not to go to this event, the slot and the travel assistance will be given to the last team eliminated by the non-attending team on their World Qualifier board.
 
Additional Notes 
 
• Each 8-Ball and 9-Ball team slot winning the Everglades APA World Qualifier qualifying for the World Pool Championships in Las Vegas will receive Travel Assistance.
 
• In addition, each winning team will receive an Individual Trophy for each player.
 
• Note: Ladies Division, Masters, and Doubles payouts may vary due to earned slots to Championships on a yearly basis and team count and/or funds collected.
 
• Should a player/team elect not to go to the World Pool Championships; the team will forfeit all awards and monies for Travel Assistance for that player/team.
 
• If the team has already received the money for Travel Assistance, the team will be required to repay the entire amount to the APA travel fund. Failure to do so will result in suspension of membership for each member of the team until the Travel Assistance money has been repaid.
 
• If qualified players qualify for additional events, he/she will only receive additional Travel Assistance when necessary for additional expenses. For example, if their airfare was already covered and they did not fly back home, they would not need additional money for airfare. They may only require additional lodging.
 
• In the event a qualified team decides not to participate in the World Pool Championships, the team that finished 2nd may be selected to replace that team in representing the Everglades APA.
