Exclusive Backstage Photos from The World Cup of Pool!

A chance to gatecrash the World Cup of Pool was not an opportunity to be missed, so Pro9 sent it's biggest reporter to find out what goes on behind the scenes at a televised tournament.

The result is these fantastic photos from Newport and a recommendation that if you've got nothing to do this weekend, you should make your way to Wales and watch the "sure to be thrilling" finals stages of the inaugural edition of The World Cup of Pool.

Click on "Read More..." for the details.


John McDonald introduces the players.



Jim Wych and Kim Davenport record a link.



The shotclock is clear to see for the players and the audience.



The cavernous arena at Newport.



The pockets are so tight the balls make a "squeaking" sound as they go in!



Team Italy enjoy a victory at the World Cup of Pool.



Attack of the Autograph Hunters



Daryl Peach signs a few autographs.



Fabio Petroni has a line of fans wanting him to sign his life away.



Earl Strickland has a few more fans wanting autographs.



Oh my goodness, Efren is deluged by the autograph hunters!


The Big Mean Green Screen



Who's that getting the "green screen" treatment?



Ahhh, it's Pat Holtz and Michael Valentine, better known as Team Scotland.



The Filipino Effect



The large Filipino contingent patiently await another victory...



...Ahhh, there it is, the final ball...



The crowd come to their feet...



...And deliver a standing ovation for Efren and Francisco.
