Next weekend (1-2-3 February) I will go to Førde to play the Norwegian Championships for women in 14-1 and 10-ball. This is an important weekend, these two events will determine which two will play the European Championships in Slovenia in april. All the best women in Norway will be there and we start on friday with 14-1. We will be three from Svithun BK, Martine Christiansen, Heidi Bratthammer and myself. Line Kjørsvik will come home from USA and June Håndstad will come down from Tromsø.

I will update this post with all participants after the announcement is closed. For now you can see the participants here:     14-1    10-ball

OK, I am a bit late announcing 2013:) Nevertheless I have had a great start of the new year and I hope it continues. It began january 1. with a visit at Ledaal and the mayor of Stavanger Christine Sagen Helgø. I received the city-pin,  the usual big towel with Norwegian Champion printed on it AND 20 000 NOK, app 3600 dollar, for my silver in the team competition (with Line Kjørsvik) in the EC 2012.

The day after I got my spot to the Amway Cup, where at least half the money will go, and then I got news of at least 5, probably 6, Eurotours for women in 2013!

So far this has been a good year!!

In three weeks time it I will travel to the first Norwegian Championships in 2013, 14-1 and 10-ball in Førde. Then it is Taiwan and Portugal before Easter and off course all the local tournaments. This will be a busy but hopefully good poolyear!

Happy New Year to you all!
