JACKSON AND LIAM PHILLIPS ARE 2026 JOSS JUNIOR 9-BALL CHAMPIONS |
| |
Our 2026 Joss Junior 9-Ball
Championship took place at Brick House Billiards in Syracuse
NY on March 14 in conjunction with our usual main event. There
were 15 players in the 18 and under division and 8 in the
12 & under. Fun was had by all including parents and spectators.
The winner of the 18 under division was Jake Jackson (his
second Junior championship) who defeated Preston Russell while
the 12 under was won by Calvin Srinivasan who defeated last
year"s winner Liam Phillips. Both winners received Gorgeous
custom engraved Joss Cues courtesy of Stephen and Debbie Janes.
All participants were allowed to help themselves to some of
the many donated items as well as free raffles for the larger
items. All participants also received a $15 gift certificate
courtesy of Brick House Billiards for food or anything they
desired. Many thanks go out to Mike Renshaw who expertly ran
both Junior events, with help from Mary Witchley, while I
ran the main event! We are also thankful to all of the generous
donors of product and cash who make these events possible.

| The
Pool World has Lost a Great Man of the Sport! |
|
As many of our friends, colleagues, and customers
know Dan Janes has passed away. We lost our dear
Dan on June 20, 2023.
Dan's life passion was for making the best cue
possible. Throughout his career he had a lifelong
quest to continually improve methods, materials,
and aesthetics of the Joss Cue while insuring they
had the best, solid play possible. Dan, Debbie,
and Stephen would sit for hours and plan the approach
to perfect a certain technique. The goal always
to make the best playing, well-built cues with a
range of price points. All cues being equal only
some had more inlays or veneers. The play, the same!
And if you wanted to talk to Dan about almost anything,
especially cues, he would talk with you. Many people
were surprised when it was Dan who answered the
phone. He spent many hours with customers creating
their image of the perfect cue. He was an inspiration
to other cue makers and would spend hours discussing
methods, ideas and strategies. Dan shared his knowledge
and his many, many pool, life stories. He was a
special man.
Dan began his life's cue making journey in a small
garage in an area of Baltimore known as Hampden
in 1967. Later in 1975 the business was moved to
a new industrial park in Towson where Joss still
resides. By his side his wife Debbie and son Stephen
helped grow the business. Debbie and Stephen will
still run the business and will continue to craft
the same superior quality Joss Cue that we have
been making since 1967. Dan made sure that Debbie
and Stephen were ready for this transition. We have
been there every day beside Dan. Stephen has helped
the business evolve with his own innovative advances
and stands behind every cue he crafts. He has been
managing the shop for 44 years. We will carry on
the tradition of making quality customized Joss
Cues.
Dan will be missed immensely by his family. His
daughters Amanda Janes, Kim Moreau and other son
Mark Janes are heartbroken.
He is also survived by grandsons, a granddaughter,
and great-grandchildren.
The pool world has lost a great man of the sport!
We are saddened. |
