42 players arrived at The Red Triangle Snooker Club, from countries such as Ireland, Moldova, Poland, Israel, Switzerland, Germany and Ukraine aswell as all the home nations, hoping to become the newly crowned champion.
With O'Shay Scott coming out on top beating Northern Ireland's Joel Connolly 4-1 in the final. Congratulations also goes to Joel Connolly who not only had a great run to the final but also scooped the £250 High Break Prize with a fantastic 136.
A huge thanks/well done goes to everyone involved in running such a brilliant tournament:
Raymond Wardropper and family, who's countless hours not only over the weekend but months in advance in preparation for the event, ensuring everyone had the best experience possible.
Everyone involved with the Red Triangle Snooker Club, Cumbernauld. Kevin, Colin, Fiona and staff, Allan, Martin, Tristan, the list goes on apologies to anyone missed. For their amazing hospitality and efforts to help throughout whenever needed.
To Garry Hendry, Davie Hutchison and Gary Coates for keeping the tables in perfect condition all weekend, allowing the players to really showcase their talents on the baize.
The three referees from Scottish Snooker, Neil Gubby, James McLaughlin and Kulvinder Kainth, providing such a professional surrounding for the aspiring players.
We at Premium Cues were delighted to be the main sponsor of this event for a 2nd year running, with such an amazing field of junior talent the game is certainly in good hands for the future. We look forward to the 2026 event and finish with your champion.
