The European Billiards and Snooker Association (EBSA) is delighted to announce a new partnership with the recently formed WPBSA World Seniors Snooker Tour.

Ahead of the European Championships in Romania we are proud to announce that we have been awarded a place in the WPBSA European Seniors Championship for our European Masters Champion.

This initial three-year deal means that our Masters Champion can look forward to representing the EBSA in competition alongside legends such as Stephen Hendry and Jimmy White until 2020.

EBSA Chairman Maxime Cassis said: “This is fantastic news for the EBSA as it hugely increases the prestige of the EBSA Masters Snooker Championship. I am sure it will also bring motivation to most of the countries who are members of the EBSA to enter players in that great event: The World Seniors Snooker Tour.”

Jason Ferguson, Chairman of the WPBSA and WSF President said “Our vision within the WPBSA Group and the WSF is to see more cooperation with regional bodies like the EBSA. This latest news demonstrates the partnership working which will provide more opportunities for players as our sport continues to grow.”

The EBSA European 6 Reds Snooker Championships + Teams (Ladies, Masters & Men) + Single Ladies & Masters will take place at the Mirage Hotel in Bucharest, Romania, from the 18th to 29th June 2018.
