In the Monday playoff the first place Renegades will play the fourth-place Rustlers and the second-place Rail Runners will play the third-place Side Shooters. The winners of two games of eight ball will meet to determine the Monday league champion.
The Snipers beat the Renegades 8-5. Elizabeth Butterfield won six games for the Snipers. Like many pool players in Leisure World, Butterfield has just recently taken up pool and she has improved her skills this season.
The Cue Crew edged the Rail Runners 7-6. Steve Mitchell won six games for the Cue Crew, including both of his singles matches.
The Rustlers beat the Side Shooters 7-6. Susan Dodson had a big night for the Rustlers winning six of her seven games.

Christensen led the C players with 11 wins and nine losses. The competition among C players was very close and every player had eight wins or more.
The Wednesday league SCAM, the first-place team, will meet No Miscueses, the fourthplace team. The Favorites will play the third-place Sharks. The two winners will meet to determine which teams will play the winner of the Monday league.
Rusty Aquino won six games for SCAM, while teammates Cornel Sneekes and Millie Larsen each won five games. SCAM ended the season with a record of 71 wins and 59 losses to lead the second place Favorites by four games.
The Favorites, who spent most of the season in last place, beat the Sharks 9-4. Dave Silva and Connie Terry both won five games for The Favorites.
The Anglers edged No Miscueses 7-6. Denise Scott won four games for the Anglers.
Every night each player has one eight ball and one nine ball singles match against their corresponding opponent. If they play all 10 weeks this comes to 20 games.
