Haven 8ball 6 man team event entries required
Permalink Closed


It gives me great pleasure to announce the first annual running of the UK 6 Man Team Championships. Event will be played to Blackball rules.

Event will be held in Berwick Haven Caravan Park from 11th-13th November.

As this will be the UK Championships there are no restrictions being placed on teams, you can play with anyone you wish to play with.

Team Entry is £120 and this is limited to 64 teams only. Entry will only be guaranteed on payment of half the entry fee (£60).

Total cost per player will be £65 (including the team entry fee)

Prizefund based on 64 teams is £9,900.

If a sponsor is secured for the event any money generated will be added to this prizefund so it could increase.

Format will be 16 groups of 4 teams played to a round robin format best of 13 frames. Everyone plays 2 frames and each team pick their own player to play final frame. Event will be played on 16 Supreme Pool tables.

Dress code will be trousers, shoes, matching polo shirts. (polo shirts just need to be the same colour)

Top 2 will progress to the Winners Knockout, bottom 2 will progress into plate competition which holds a winner takes all prize of £1,000. Prizemoney in Winners Knockout starts at quarter final stage so any team who gets knocked out of Winners Knockout before the prizemoney drops into the plate and a chance of that prize.

There will be 2 tables setup the whole weekend playing 10 ball crash and speedpool, top 5 scores and times will playoff on the Sunday afternoon for a guaranteed £200 winner takes all prize for each discipline. This will be charged at £1 a try, and you get an attempt at both disciplines.

Prizemoney for event:-

Winners £3,000
R/Up £1,500
Semis £1,000
Quarters £500

Plate Winners £1,000

10 Ball Crash £200

FYI my friend biggrin,

Oxfordshire have a lot of top quality players good enough to enter this comp, im sure once word gets about there maybe some interest..........just one problem....327 miles from Oxford to Berwick & 5 hours 50 mins in a car yawn .......that might be the only stumbling block biggrin

But seriously though it does sound like a great event, just a shame im not good enough or i might of entered biggrin

 who says your not good enough.....but i agree with you in respect of distance...however , if yourself or others could get a team together and back up your boast of you having the players available to win this....come up , your more than welcome to try and beat scottish opposition..england,ireland and wales have tried and failed nearly every year in bridlington...hey but maybe your lot are a cut above..

There seems to be a lot of tournaments like this popping up at the mo. It sounds good but who needs to go all the way to Scotland?! Surely we could come up with something similar (or even better) here in Oxfordshire, especially with the popularity of pool around here at the mo. I'm sure there are plenty of players from all the local legaues who'd come and have a go and enter a team.............sort of like an Oxfordshire inter-league championship. Lots of friendly rivalry and banter would ensue for definite biggrin

 Are you offering to ferry us all there and back......or what? biggrin Naaah, I think we'll organise our own tourney......then you can travel down here and give us a pasting instead, seeing as you Scots travel so well wink

And I must correct myself.......Berwick is of course in England, not Scotland biggrin

Gentlemen, be nice.  Surely the active promotion of any competition in the sport we love should be encouraged?  Getting an annual event on the calender needs a hefty amount of time and effort for those organising it.

Good luck with the event, Shuffler, even if it's a little too far away to tempt any of our players.

GUYS , GUYS , GUYS what happened in bridlington....? scotland made a complete clean sweep again......the organisation are contemplating adding any scottish players with any sort of connection with english heritage and drop you lot and have them represent you lot...it's getting more and more embarrassing for them seeing you ,wales and ireland just turn up to make up the numbers......and the scorelines scotland win by suggests you lot take up some other sport....it's no wonder you WON'T come up to berwick if you can't win in home territory.......

next year it's to be re-named the " Scottish European Championships and Also Rans "

Get a calendar of annual events, you need a time and energy on those organizations substantially. Of course, we love the sport of competition, should be encouraged to actively promote?
