USBA events will all be played on renowned Simonis 300 Rapide carom cloth. &#8220;Given our longstanding relationship with the USBA, it just makes sense to have this kind of arrangement,&#8221; stated Ivan Lee, President of Iwan Simonis, Inc. &#8220;In these uncertain times, the USBA needs to focus on growing their tour and not worrying about sponsors.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The multi-year deal makes Simonis the exclusive cloth sponsor to the USBA, including both the USBA tour and the USBA National Championships. Bob Jewett, President of the USBA, said, &#8220;Simonis has been the main sponsor for the USBA National Championships for many years and has helped out with the National Qualifiers for at least a decade. Their generous increase in support came at an important time for the organization as we try to increase membership during a difficult economic situation. We hope to make the relationship as beneficial to Simonis as it is to the USBA.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>About Iwan Simonis Founded in 1680 in Verviers, Belgium, Simonis cloth is distributed globally through a network of carefully selected dealers that are committed to uphold the company&#8217;s longstanding commitment to quality.
