Kevin Uzzell victorious after a hard day's work in Solihull tournament

Tonnes of pool was advertised, and there was definitely value for money in Solihull, as group stage after group stage whittled over 40 players down to 1, in a single day of action that really sorted the men from the boys.

Kevin Uzzell proved to be the man with the necessary will to win (and the staying power) that the demanding tournament format required, beating a very "in-form" Damian Massey with a 6-3 score in the late night final.

"Read more" for the details.












The format

  • Group stages down to the last 4 so great value for money and the best chance for anyone to progress.
  • Pro players will be seeded into the groups so that there is only 1 pro per group in the first round and no more than 2 per group in the last 16. This means that there won’t be any “groups of death” and that a pro can’t meet another pro until later in the day.
  • We will be using the club to its full potential, using 16 tables for the first 2 rounds and all tables will be tapped.
  • Prize money down to the last 8 and trophies for winner and runner-up.
  • Anybody who has been to Rileys Solihull will know it is one of the very best clubs in the country with 22 well looked after tables, a large lounge area and friendly staff.
