Break Shot Manga
There are not too many mangas about sports, but there are exceptions - For example: Break Shot is about billiards.
It was released in 1987 and 16 in the series. The author is Takeshi Maekawa.
I've been looking for the comics, but haven't been able to find them. I did find them on Amazon.com (the Japanese Amazon). I had a hard time trying to translate the page and then I saw the magic "Display in English" link. Heh - um, it doesn't work.
Plot Summary:
A boy named Chinmi is infatuated with billiards. Problems arise when a new student body president, Olive, suddenly decided to cut the funding for his billiards club. Unhappy with that, Chinmi wants to convince Olive that the club is worthy of the funding. He decided to challenge a two-time former national billiards champion. Chinmi goes on to re-create legendary techniques and enters the National Championship Billiards Tournament.
