Amy-Claire King scoops three titles for SA, despite lack of support

Johannesburg - King recently returned from Morocco, where she was crowned Africa’s female pool champion, at the All Africa Pool Championships.

However, despite her amazing exploits in the world of pool this year, the Joburg player has received little to no recognition for her victories, neither is she or her fellow South African pool teammates supported financially in any way. “People just aren’t willing to jump on board because they see pool as a sport played in bars. It’s sad that people don’t know about how well our pool players are doing. They deserve the recognition.”

At the All Africa Championships in Marrakesh, Morocco, King walked away with the Africa Ladies Singles title, while the South African men’s and ladies pool team won the overall tournament.
