The EBSA Seniors and Women Championships started yesterday in Algarve, Portugal. You will find everything you want/need to know here. There are competitions for senior men, women (all age) as well as team competitions, and a shoot-out competition. There is also a disability event on the calendar.
There are 77 players involved in the seniors competition, with mainland Europe countries strongly represented1. There are 22 women players competing in Algarve … with Belgium being the country with the bigger representation: they have 4 players in the draw, including Wendy Jans.
- Proof once again that the argument to justify the “historical” UK centric organisation of WST – that allegedly snooker in the past was essentially a UK/Ireland thing – is simply untrue. ↩︎
