  • Historic Snooker Trophies

    I've been asked by the English Snooker Association (EASB) to help them sell some of their trophies, previously awarded to National Junior Championships, but which are no longer in use. The money raised will go towards a fund they are putting together to help players travel to overseas championships, like the IBSF events, for which they qualify. At present players must meet all their own travel costs due to EASB getting no funding from Sport England.

    There are some big names in the professional game whose names appear on these trophies, including the likes of Judd Trump and Shaun Murphy, which would have been the first national championship any of them had won.

    If anyone is interested, the details can be found on the following links:

      I would hope that the players whose names appear on these trophies are interested in getting hold of them on a permanent basis. They might be concentrating on their careers at the moment, but in twenty years or so, who wouldn't want a tangible reminder of where it all started?

          I've just noticed there are some problems with viewing the pictures of the U-17 Trophy (this is the one which was Paul Hunter's first national championship win) so I've uploaded a couple of new pics.

              isn't it annoying when items are removed from view immediately after end time

                    Has the bidder won them before?

                            Ah, right. It's not one of the players who have their names on the trophy.
