LET'S TALK POOL!
Hi, I’m Pepijn de Wit, a 30-year-old Dutch pool enthusiast, and will probably try to get you to play one pocket. I love one pocket, started writing about it, therefore launched Poolhead, and organized the One Pocket Series (a Dutch one pocket tour) shortly after. The One Pocket Series is part of a personal project to inspire pool players in the Netherlands, and eventually in the rest of Europe as well, to play one pocket and spread the joy the game provides. You can contribute by sharing your passion and send in an article for review. Next to that, I write about the Dutch pool scene, there is an entertainment section, you can find other publications I wrote, and more. Go check it out!
