The EPSB is delighted to announce the team of players that will represent the organisation for the upcoming 2021 EBSA European Snooker Championships that are taking place between the 2nd-17th October at the Vidamar Hotel Resort in the Algarve, Portugal.
The EBSA European Championships are steeped in history and is one of the most prestigious international amateur events on the snooker calendar. First held in 1988, the Open Championship has been won by several well-known professional players such as Mark Allen and Luca Brecel. England holds the record for the most number of wins in that particular event with eight.
Other categories have been added down the years, with the Under-21 and Open Championships both providing qualification paths to the professional circuit.
With few tournaments to go by during the past 18 months due to the coronavirus pandemic, the EPSB’s qualification criteria has come from results and ranking lists from the 2019/20 campaign.
We are proud to list the players who will be competing in the championships below:
Daniel Womersley, Sanderson Lam, Sean O’Sullivan, Oliver Brown
Joe Fenton, Liam Pullen, Oliver Sykes, Aidan Murphy, Paul Deaville, Stan Moody
Connor Benzey, Lewis Ullah, Jenson Kendrick, Hayden Staniland, Hamim Hussain
Emma Parker, Rebecca Kenna, Steph Daughtery, Nat Howard
David Brown, Wayne Brown, Richard Emery, Lee Roberts
The EPSB congratulates all players that have qualified to represent themselves, the EPSB and their country for the championships.
Further information and updates will be published across the EPSB’s social media as the championships get underway.
Due to a recent withdrawal, there is one additional place available in the Women’s Championship. If you are interested, please contact the EPSB ASAP for more information.
