England Victorious in Glasgow |

England Students won the inaugural Student Eight-ball Pool Home Internationals with a tense, nervy win over a Wales team that pushed them all the way.
England finished the first day with a perfect record of two wins from two including a strong 11-5 defeat of the much fancied Northern Ireland side. A Northern Ireland backlash followed as they destroyed Wales, who had earlier beaten Scotland by the odd frame, 11-1. Like Scotland, Ireland also emerged from the first day losing their only match.
The second day began with Scotland and Wales recording wins over Northern Ireland and Ireland respectively. The tournament was then thrown wide open as Scotland recorded their second win of the tournament with an excellent 11-8 defeat of the auld enemy England. The other match of the session was do-or-die as the loser was out of the running. Ireland were too good for Northern Ireland beating them 11-6 and condemning them to bottom spot.
The final session was pivotal. England beat Wales 11-5 which meant that no matter what Ireland did they couldn’t make the final. However, if Scotland beat them they would make the final at Wales’ expense. With Ireland comfortably 10-4 up the Wales team were getting ready for the final but then Scotland mounted a comeback. Thankfully for Wales it wasn’t enough and Ireland closed the match out 11-8 meaning an England-Wales final.
Wales got off to a flyer shocking the England team with a 6-0 lead. As crisis talks were going on in the England camp Nick Veuger started the England comeback and they went on to win five frames on the bounce before Jon Tyrrell stopped the rot keeping Wales just ahead 7-5. Veuger, Rich Wharton and Joe Tonkin took frames to put England in the lead for the first time but it was short-lived as Dev Chadha and Yura Sevcenco re-established the Wales lead 9-8. Wales’ Ben Dabson missed a good chance to get to the hill leaving England’s Kushal Vadi with an easy finish to square the match 9-9.
Wales’ sub Gareth Liu-Evans was close to dishing off a dry break but Jay Murphy took England to the hill. The honour of potting the winning 8-ball came to Rich Wharton who, with two visits, missed a double on the 8-ball and left himself with a tough long pot to win. He held his nerve and despatched the 8-ball much to the joy of his team mates.
The win also meant that England defended the BUSA Home Nations title and Ireland took the HESPC Shield for the best placed Irish side. Rich Wharton took the MVP award with a perfect 8 wins from 8 frames played in the round robin stages of the team event.
Players from England Students dominated the Student International Masters providing six of the quarter-finalists and three of the semi-finalists. The first semi-final was an all-England affair with Jay Murphy getting the better of Nick Veuger 3-1. In the other semi-final Ireland’s David Columb prevented it being an all-England final with a fine win over current BUSA-UPC Individual Champion Rich Wharton.
David Columb streaked to a 3-0 lead in the final and had a good chance to wrap it up before Jay Murphy came back to level the match with a break and dish making it 3-3. David Columb then missed a break and dish before Jay Murphy claimed what turned into an edgy frame and with it the title.

Rileys to Sponsor 2008 SEPF Region 1 Tour |
|
|
Sunday, April 06 @ 19:30:17 BST (65 reads) |

Mike Clark writes: "
It gives me great pleasure to announce that SEPF Region 1 has secured a new sponsor. Rileys Ltd, with over 165 clubs, are probably the biggest name in Pool and Snooker in the UK, and have recently extended their in-club services to include Poker.
Rileys have two clubs in Aberdeen. By May, there will be six traditional style pool tables installed at their Bridge Place club, next to Aberdeen’s bus and train stations.
In 2008, this will provide a venue for:
- Men’s Premier Section Events.
- Men’s Aberdeen Section Events.
- North East 5-Man Team Event.
- North East Singles Event.
- North East Scotch Doubles Event.
- Junior’s Tour Section Events.
- Other SEPF National Events.
Since the men’s tour split into two regions in 2007, the total number of tour members increased to 118 (73 in Region 1 - 45 in Region 2).
Throughout the first season, it became obvious that there were some improvements which could be made to the tour to suit the players, so the structure is changing:
- The Region 1 Tour is being merged with the NESPT Tour.
- The NESPT will no longer exist.
- The ranking lists will be merged to ensure players are ranked accordingly.
- The new look Region 1 Tour will be divided into sections.
- All tour events will be played over one day.
- Entry fees are reduced where possible.
- Events are held in local venues meaning less travelling.
- All players have an even fairer chance to qualify for the Scotland Squad.
The tour has now been split into different sections, these are:
Premier Section
- for the top 32 ranked players.
- venues to be Rileys, Bridge Place, Aberdeen and Station Hotel, Ellon.
Aberdeen Section
- for all other players in Aberdeen, Stonehaven and surrounding areas.
- venue to be Rileys, Bridge Place, Aberdeen.
East Coast Section
- for all other players in Peterhead, Fraserburgh, Boddam, Cruden, Ellon and surrounding areas.
- venues to be Top Break Club, Peterhead and any other suitable venues.
Moray Section
- for all other players in Elgin, Lossiemouth, Hopeman, Burghead and surrounding areas.
- venue to be decided.

Anonymous writes: "
One of the biggest dates on the pool calendar, the JFKs £500 Masters, is set to be held on the 6-8th of June 2008 at JFKs, Peckham in London.
The much anticipated event is in it’s 4th year and continues to grow in popularity amongst players and spectators alike.
This years contest is set for 32 of the countries finest players competing for the top prize and trophy in one of the toughest competitions of the year.
As in past years, the matches will be played to World Rules and be the best of 5 sets. Each set will be the best of 9 frames, making the event just as much about endurance as skill.
Past Masters winners - Mick Hill, Darren Appleton and last years winner, Phil Harrison, will be there to attempt to become the first player to win the title twice. Amateur Masters winners, Carl Morris and Marc Farnsworth will also be in attendance, trying to do the double.
As in past years, there will be qualifiers held around the country to offer many players the opportunity to compete against the top players.
Anyone interested in holding a qualifier, please contact Ian Chapman by PM (site user Neo69) or phone - 07723099225
On Sunday the 8th of June, JFKs will hold a £25 competition for players and spectators to take part in.
There will be a raffle held for a place in the main competition, with tickets selling at £2 each. Cue sport professionals will not be allowed to purchase tickets or be entered into the competition through this scheme.
Details of this will be available in the next few weeks by Tournament Director, Ian Chapman.
There is to be a resurrection of the popular “Calcutta Auction” that was held a couple of years ago, which allowed site users, competitors and spectators to “bid” on a player to win the event, winning themselves and the player a slice of the money bid. Full details to be released in the forthcoming weeks.
For information and further details or queries - please contact Ian Chapman (Neo69) by PM or phone - 07723099225
