We’ve previously written about disabled Snooker & Billiards, see here, and we always find it difficult to seek out the few halls and tournaments that exist but this time they came to us!

‘I’m contacting you to let your organisation and its members know about our WDBS event coming up in September!!

WDBS gives people with disabilities the opportunity to play cue sports around the world.  We have a FREE Friday Open Day, with expert coaches, plus a competitive event over the weekend.

WDBS has regularly staged snooker events for people with disabilities across the UK and beyond.  Typically run over three days, events include a mix of open days at which anyone with a disability is encouraged to attend and try snooker, as well as competitive tournaments.  Tournaments are open to people with a range of physical, learning and sensory disabilities, with players assigned to a classification group determined by their disability profile as set out within the WDBS Classification System.

Our event coming up in September will take place on Friday 30 September at Hazel Grove Snooker Club, 2 Macclesfield Road, Hazel Grove, SK7 5EN.

The Friday Open Day on 30 September, will run from 10am until 5pm, giving players with any disability or level of experience the chance to come and try snooker under the guidance of qualified WPBSA Snooker Coaches.

• To book a group or individual into our FREE Open Day on Friday 30 September, choose a slot at 10am, 11.30am, 1pm or 2.30pm and email jessica.ives@wpbsa.com
