A pool clip for detachably connecting to a support surface may include a first clamp holding member for clamping to the support surface, a second clamp holding member for cooperating with the first clamp holding member for clamping to the support surface, a biasing device for biasing the first clamp holding member and the second clamp holding member, and each of the first clamp holding member and the second clamp holding member having a billiard cue holding surface adapted for holding multiple billiard cues of varying diameters and lengths. The first clamp holding member may include an aperture for cooperating with an insert member, and the insert member may include a depression area adapted for cooperating with a cue ball. The first clamp holding member may include an arm member to cooperate with the biasing device so that the first clamp holding member and the second clamp holding member are pivotally connected, and the first clamp holding member may include a handle section to allow a user to pivot the first clamp holding member with respect to the second clamp holding member. The billiard cue holding surface may be concavely curved, and the clamp holding member may include a support holding surface. The support holding surface may be formed from flexible material, and the insert member may be formed from flexible material.
