| How many people play
pool?
A survey launched in 1998 showed approximately
40 million pool players in the United States alone. Worldwide
figures top at roughly 150 million, an astonishing number
indeed. Although the majority of them are still men, a growing
number of women are now enjoying what this great sport has
to offer. A percentage rate taken in the U.S. in the same
study shows a remarkably small gender gap with 37% of the
players being women. Hence our expanding line of female oriented
pool cues !
In the early part of the year 2000, Africa, became the sixth
continent to receive a membership with the W.P.A.(World Pool-Billiard
Association). Now more than 100 countries have joined ranks
the W.P.A. with the only exception being that of, multinational
continent, Antarctica.
Compared with other sports, pool has been generally accepted
as the worlds most rapidly developed sport. Our mission here
at Smart cue is to expand the sport of pool with you even
further, to every corner of the world, every walk of life,
and to all ages.
