Tri-nations Blackball Pool - First Info
For some time now I have been toying with the idea of hosting events specifically for the Cuesport TV audience.
I never haide the fact that I feel Blackball is the better rule set when it comes to UK ’small-ball’ pool, and there are a lack of tournaments for these players to compete in as well.
It made obvious sense to me to promote an event of our own and I wanted to do something different that would show Blackball in the right light.
The first ever tri-nations tournament will take place this year and will feature two-man teams from England, Scotland and Wales.
The tournament will be exclusively live online at Cuesport TV and will feature players like Craig Marsh, Simon Ward and Andy Lucas, plus it is hoped World Masters Champion Scott Ross will compete for Scotland.
Through sponsorship from BilliardsBoutique.com the event will have £2000.00 prize money with the winning team pocketing it all and the title for 2010. If successful, which I believe it will be, then it will become an annual event on the calendar.
The format, date and venue are yet to be set in stone but dates around April/May 2010 are being considered.
