James Delahunty takes a year off pool and will miss the 2023 Pockets Pro Series, this years Pro Series 3rd place getter James Delahunty is set to spend next year on the sidelines. SA’s favourite son, who amassed $17,250 in the inaugural Pockets Pro Series said “I need some time away from pool to enjoy my, work, studies, and family. For this reason I will have to sadly withdraw my entry from the 2023 Series”
The Hitman’s commitment to excellence provided us with plenty of viewing entertainment during Year 1.
This surprise announcement from James has opened another spot for the 2023 series. There are a number of high-class players all over the country that are ready to swoop on any vacancy. Who will get the call up? Well, whoever is chosen has big boots to fill.
Pockets would like to thank James for his commitment, and we all look forward to seeing him back again in 2024 (hopefully). Pockets Director, Arthur Titus said “He is part of the first 8, the first 8 that believed in my project, the first 8 that invested their time and money into this project, the first 8 that risked more than they ever have in this industry, the first 8 that made a difference, and the first 8 that helped shape Pockets Sports to where it is today, for that I am truly grateful. I wish Dela and his family all the best during this time away from the bright lights and rigour of next level pool.”
