These prestigious 9-ball championships are rated alongside the All Ireland 8-Ball Pool Championships, as the two most prestigious and high profile events on Ireland’s American 8 & 9 ball pool tour, with the outright winner writing themselves into the history books on Ireland’s Hall of Fame going alongside some of the great players who have already been inducted Kevin Smith (England), John Wims (Kildare), Pat Holtz (Scotland), Daryl Peach (England) and the 2006 All Ireland 9-Ball Pool Champion Sam Gibson (Antrim).
Not only will the outright winner be inducted into the Hall of Fame they will also receive a cheque for a substantial amount of prize-money and the beautiful crystal trophy for their efforts.
