The winners of the Under 21 and the Mixed events will receive tour cards for the next two seasons on the World Snooker Tour
Note: Where it says “Men” it actually doesn’t mean just men. All the events are gender equal.
Andrew Pagett wins the EBSA European Championship
Formerly known as “men” or “men/mixed”
Andrew Pagett, the former professional from Wales, beat Finland’s Heikki Niva 5-2 in the final and, with the title, earns a 2-year tour card for the WST.
The win also means that Andrew won’t have to compete in the Challenge Tour play-off and could give a spot to Jake Nicholson.

Aaron Hill does the double!
Aaron Hill successfully defended his Under 18 title by beating Sean Maddocks 4-1 in the final. Hill and Maddocks also earn places in the World Championship qualifying rounds this April in Sheffield.
Hill then went on to win the Under 21 title as well, beating Hayden Staniland 5-2 in the final. Hill’s “bonus” for winning this one is a 2 year place on the World Snooker Tour starting next season. A fantastic achievement indeed!
