Corrigan & Bonner Retain Their All Ireland Doubles Title

Damien Corrigan (Tyrone) and Paul Bonner (Donegal) retained the All Ireland 9-Ball Doubles Title beating the Derry pairing of Paul Strawbridge and Chris Brown in the final of the 2006 event played in T J’s American Pool Club Newry Co. Down last weekend.

Damien and Paul who have been knocking on the door over the last few years on the Irish tour, reaching the semi-finals and final stages on a number of occasions only to face defeat. Now, however, it is now starting to turn around for both players as they are starting to show their fellow players that they mean business when it comes to tournament play and the results indicate the same, with both players climbing into the top five in the tour's official rankings.

BPPPA Colchester Open Winner - Daryl Peach.


Colchester ‘Dazzled’

Another weekend of fantastic 9 ball was rounded off with a triumphant Daryl Peach taking home the glory and the big money as he overcame good friend and travelling partner Andy Worthington by eleven racks to ten at the BPPPA Colchester Open final, held at Riley’s Colchester over Saturday 13th and Sunday 14th May. Although close, the final never really sent sparks flying across the baize owing certainly to the two players knowing each other so well, but predominantly because of both putting in so much effort to reach the final itself. At hill-hill, Blackpool’s Peach broke off and as the balls were preparing to rest it looked as though Worthington was to be given a clear chance for the title, until a kindly bump from the red 3 saw the 7ball drop into the side. The table had proved a difficult one to make balls from the break on, so when the 7 did find a hole – and Peach let out a huge sigh of relief and a smile, the chuckle from the spectators was more than justified. ‘The Dazzler’ made no mistakes in running-out the remaining balls to lift his third title on English soil for the season. “I had that good feeling when Sunday arrived”, said Peach, “I get a feeling in every single tournament I play regarding whether it’s my day or not, I felt it was my day in Colchester and it was”.

This is one of only two chances to qualify in Europe for a share of the $2,000,000 prize fund on offer at the IPT North American 8-Ball Open Championship

The 25 locations for qualifiers have been announced and the only two European qualifiers are NA-09 and NA-24... The first is in Switzerland and the second is will be at a venue in the UK.

Entry fees need to be paid in advance (absolutely no entries are accepted on the day) so download the forms from here and ensure a spot in one of the limited fields for the IPT North American Open Qualifiers being held in Europe.

Remember, over $2 million dollars in prize money will be earned by the 200 players, $350,000 for first place, but more importantly last place will win $2,000!!!

This is a Pro9.co.uk promotion. Please only download the forms if you are happy to accept www.pro9.co.uk as your referrer. If this is unacceptable then you'll need to find an alternative source as these forms are specifically for www.pro9.co.uk and must not be altered. We've tried our best to simplify the process as much as possible by providing a Microsoft Word file that can be printed, then filled in with a pen and faxed or posted to the IPT, and you can use the same form to enter ANY of the IPT North American Open qualifiers. Please support Pro9.co.uk... To date, and to the best of our knowledge, we are the only web site offering this information in Europe... Remember, you saw it here FIRST!!!

Play Your Best Pool

When people ask me about a good book to read to improve their game I have absolutely no hesitation whatsoever in recommending "Phil Capelle's - Play Your Best Pool" to anyone I meet, no matter what their ability.

The book covers everything from the blindingly obvious and basic things like grip and stance to the ultra-subtle nuances that you thought nobody else noticed. This book, suitable for absolute beginners and the very advanced and proficient player alike, honestly, it's all explained in a friendly fashion, that keeps you paying attention without suffering from information overload... And that's the best secret weapon this book has... It's so cleverly written that you enjoy reading and learning.

Not patronising, but informative, whatever level of ability you play, this book CAN help your game!

I'd love to meet the man himself, perhaps play a game, because he surely is a very special kind of genius.

The weekend of 29th and 30th April saw the second running of this tournament in Benalmádena, Malaga.

This sport generally known as 8 Ball in the UK is referred to in Spain as Pool 51 because of the size of the balls (51 mm) and thus distinguishes the game from the more popular game of American 8 Ball.

Tony Burton


BUR-FECT PAIRING AGAIN IN ST ALBANS

The gifted Tony Burton has taken his second BPPPA Junior title of the season by winning the Southern Regional Championship held at the outstanding venue, Riley’s St. Albans. Burton, known as the ‘Basildon Bomber’, beat Darlington’s 15 year old sensation Philip Burford by nine racks to two in the final match. Storming into a 4 – 0 lead, Burton kept his composure and never allowed Burford to find any sure-footing in the match to take the last trophy and cash prize up for grabs before the big one - the British Junior Championships, which will be staged in Stafford on Saturday 20th May.
