The Mosconi Cup XVIII - Las Vegas Matchroom Sport MGM Grand Las Vegas Nevada USA www.matchroompool.com www.matchroomsport.com
27 January 2011
 Mosconi Cup Ranking System Announced
MATCHROOM SPORT can announce the qualification system for the 2011 PartyPoker.net Mosconi Cup which takes place in Las Vegas from 8 – 11 December. For the first time, Matchroom will be operating their own ranking lists, and this year, the majority of both sides will come from two separate ranking lists created specifically for the tournament.
Players and fans will now be able to follow the progress of all the leading contenders as they vie for spots as the tournaments unfold. The final event on both lists is the 2011 US Open which concludes on Saturday 22nd October. After that date both teams will be named in full.

Legends Pool Bar Silks Way Off South Street Braintree Essex CM7 3GB Tel: 01376 327285 Web: www.legends-pool.co.uk Email: info@legends-pool.co.uk
Saturday 26 March 2011

There's always a lot of interest in this event, and with Europeans doing so well in all international events lately, there are plenty of people who would like to watch this tournament from the comfort of their arm-chair in Europe as Darren Appleton, Ralf Souquet, and Niels Feijen (among others) battle our favourite international stars - Earl Strickland and Francisco Bustamante at 9 Ball, One Pocket and 9 Ball Banks - Three massive individual tournaments decide the "All-Around" Champion at this incredible action fest of a hustler's jamboree, and this is going to be the BIGGEST and BEST year ever.
While stocks last, Pro9 has some "ACCESS-ALL-AREAS" guest passes for the entire duration of the event - normal price $79.60, even Accu-Stats "Special Price" is $63.95 (or $9.99 per day) but Pro9 has a very limited number available for an ultra special price available Special Offer price no longer available - sorry! on a first come-first served basis to our lucky European members - limited availability so buy now and we'll email you with your log-in details.
Contrary to popular belief - Accu-Stats is actually broadcasting during very social hours for European viewers... 80% of today's broadcast matches were finished before 1am today... Only the single last match of the evening is being broadcast after the "witching hour" as Pat Flemming's coverage finishes after the 8.30pm match (local time) - rather than continuing into the impossibly small hours like other streamers.

 | 2011 Dutch Youth Championships - The Medal Winners |
2011 Dutch Youth Championships Poolcafé Delfshaven Aelbrechtskolk 45B 3025 HB Rotterdam www.poolcafedelfshaven.nl www.knbb.nl
 Picture: 2011 Dutch Youth Championships poster, pupil Kaylash Persad at the pooltable. 2011 Dutch Youth Championships
The 2011 Dutch Youth Championships, sanctioned by the Royal Dutch Billiards Federation (KNBB), have produced new champions. Participants were subdivided into the categories Pupils (born in 1995 or younger) and Juniors (born in 1993 until 1994). New talent and pros- to-be displayed their skills in Poolcafé Delfshaven in Rotterdam. Pool billiards enthusiasts attended in great numbers, the participants, their parents, supporters and the press. The 2011 Dutch Youth Championships is sponsored by Longoni Cues and Kamui Tips.
Amongst the Juniors, former European 9-ball youth champion Ivar Saris managed to snatch the first gold medal of the event in the final against Ivo Aarts. Yet, Ivo Aarts proved to be the big winner of this year’s Youth Championships, with 3 gold medals and an additional silver medal. Aarts is already a regular at the Euro Tour.

 | Milliken expands European outlets |
Milliken Industrials Limited Woollen Speciality Products Lodgemore Mills Stroud Gloucestershire GL5 3EJ www.milliken-wsp.co.uk
21 January 2011

 Team GB won the World Team Championships on Milliken's Billiard Cloth. Photo © Markus Hofstätter/Touch Magazine - used by Pro9 with express permission. Milliken distributors appointed in France, Lithuania and Romania
Billiard cloth manufacturer Milliken is continuing to develop its territorial coverage with the appointment of three new distributors.
With current business partners ranging from Beijing to the US, they bring to 25 the company’s international supplier network.
Pool is leading this export drive. In Paris, Bulldog Billiards owned by Dafydd Hughes, is now the distributor for Milliken’s English pool cloth, Strachan 6811, for the 7ft table market.
While further east, Rolandas Gaucys from Bilijardai in Lithuania and Florin Tat of S C Tat in Romania are both supplying Milliken SuperPro for the American pool market in those countries.
“Pool in Europe continues to be a growth market for us,” reports Milliken marketing manager Stuart Gardiner.
“Europe winning the Mosconi Cup for the third time in four years is all the evidence we need that pool is in rude health and expanding.
“Success at this level provides a real stimulus for us as manufacturers because it generates a great deal of player interest in the clubs and leagues.”

 | GB9 Ball Tour Northern Qualifier Group Results |
GB9 TOUR NORTHERN QUALIFIER 2011 Rileys American Pool and Snooker - Barnsley 45-47 Peel St Barnsley South Yorkshire S70 2RL www.rileys.co.uk www.gb9balltour.com
Sunday 16 January 2011
 Northern is 2nd of 3 Qualifying Events for GB9 2011 Season
17 Players turned out in Barnsley with approximately 60% of the field qualifying to join the tour in 2011. Whilst it was quite a small field there was a lot of quality so some very capable players frustratingly lost out on Sunday.
However, all is not lost for them. After compiling the full entry list for the Southern qualifier next week where GB9 will again try and give spots to 60% of the field, if there are still some spots available for next season the organisers will revisit the results at each of the three qualifiers and some of the unlucky few could turn into 'lucky losers' to take up the remaining spots on the tour. Anyone who is still unsuccessful will take their place at the top of the reserve list for next season.
The players and groups were as follows - Group 1: Matthew Gleaves, Stuart Ellis, Brendan Leigh, Liam Waterworth, Darran Cooper and Darren Murray - Group 2: Malcolm Clarke, Andrew Croasdale, Elliot Sanderson, Michael Castro, David Smith, and Ian Crosbie. - Group 3: Graeme Clark, Jon-paul Murrow, Edward Fee, Andrew Bingham, and Simon Davis.
Only one more qualifying events remains, this weekends, (the GB9 Southern Qualifier - Rileys Shepherds Bush - 23 January 2011) and entries will still be accepted until 12 noon the day before this ultimate qualifying tournament.

 | Nick van den Berg wins 2011 Paris 9-Ball Open Championship |
2011 Open de Paris Cercle Clichy Montmartre 84, rue de Clichy 75009 Paris www.lcb94.fr www.academie-billard.com www.billardfacile.fr www.opendeparis.fr
Saturday/Sunday 15-16 January 2010
 Click the image to view larger photograph (use "back" to return here). 2011 Paris 9-Ball Open Championship
Nick van den Berg had one of those days where everything seemed easy, great breaks, unmissable potting, and the confidence of a champion - producing some epic matches with one-sided results in his favour, and a couple of matches that went to the hill - on Saturday Imran Majid took him all the way, and today it was Raj Hundal's turn to test the man from the Netherlands. Despite these oh-so-close single elimination matches going to the wire, van den Berg's game grew and grew as the final approached, resulting in a penultimate drubbing of his fellow countryman Niels Feijen 9-3 in the Semi-Finals, and a solid 11-8 victory in the final against a tricky customer by the name of Tony Drago.
The more intensely you study the player list, the more familiar names you notice - a very popular event with players from these shores, and it's not just the usual big guns who have made the trip to Paris this weekend. A tribute to the organisers, David Bare and Gael Yard, who invited players to attend the brilliant Paris Open at the elegant Cercle Clichy Montmartre.
Despite no celebrity players receiving free invitations this year, there were plenty in attendance - all vying for a share of the €18,000+ prize fund on offer.
Surprising results were plentiful, as last year's winner of this event, home favourite Vincent Facquet was knocked out comparatively early in the Last 16 stage by Greece's Nikos Oikonomopoulos, and New Zealand's Matthew Edwards has cut a swathe through the best of the field into the Semi-Finals only to be stopped by the speedy play of the other finalist - Malta's Tony Drago.
