LONDON OPEN CANCELLED! We are sorry to say that due to unavoidable circumstances, the EPT London Open has had to be cancelled until further notice. The main reason for this is that the EPBF have asked us to cancel this event because it is clashing with another event which is EPBF sanctioned and is held in Biel (Switzerland) on the same dates. Even though we feel that our event was announced first, we totally want to avoid any confruntations with the EPBF in any way, so the event has to be cancelled. To add to this, the reds and yellows pool have an event on the same weekend too! Any players who have already entered this event will be contacted by Daryl Peach within the next day or so in order to gain addresses so that entry fees can be sent back on Monday. Also if any players have already booked flights, please send the flight tickets/confirmation to us and we will be happy to rufund you. We are extremely disapointed with this outcome as i am sure all the players are but there is just no way around the problem. Please accept the EPT and its organisers appoligies. -----------------

Lets try and take a positive out of negative, I originally wouldnt have been able to play in this event cause I was committed to a snooker tournament. So now I will not have to miss the event!

Hey Dazzler  I'm sorry to hear that the event had t0 be cancelled, but it's understandable given the amount of date clashes, as it's hard to work around every tour , but I've got a good feeling that this will work out for the better, because if another date can be arranged for the event, later in the year, it will give more players more of an oppertunity to attend, therefore giving a better chance of a bigger field of players Either way, I wish you all, the very best Willie

I'm gutted! I was really looking forward to this!
"Also if any players have already booked flights, please send the flight tickets/confirmation to us and we will be happy to refund you."
^^^ I've got to say that's a quality touch I've never seen before!

I don't mind being cancelled as I haven't had chance to pratcise the 8-ball. So should be up for it later in the year and also get a few St Albans players down.
Will I get a refund on my Plane from Luton to Gatwick?
I think you're doing great things with Refunding quickly etc and I'm sure when the event goes ahead it will be a great success.
