Mosconi Cup Tickets on Sale Today

MATCHROOM SPORT can announce that tickets to the 2010 PartyCasino.com Mosconi Cup are now on sale from www.seetickets.com , one of the UK's major online ticketing agencies.

Taking place at East London's legendary York Hall, following an eight year absence, the Mosconi Cup features two five man teams representing Europe and the USA competing over four days from Thursday 9th to Sunday 12th December.

Following four years without a win, Team USA came good in Las Vegas last December as they brushed aside the European challenge and they will be back this year, determined to hang onto the trophy in the intimidating atmosphere of the York Hall.

Matchroom Sport chairman and Mosconi Cup promoter, Barry Hearn, is delighted to be bringing the Mosconi Cup back to such an exciting venue.

‘What makes the York Hall such a special venue for pool is that it is compact and manages to generate a frightening amount of atmosphere. We have room for around 400 and I am expecting these tickets to sell quickly,' he said.

‘I can't remember an event I have promoted in recent times, that has generated so much interest and ever since we announced the venue back in April, we have been receiving ticket enquiries on a daily basis.'

Thursday 9th 19.00
Friday evening 10th 19.00
Saturday afternoon 11th 14.00

Live in its entirety on Sky Sports in the UK, the PartyPoker.com Mosconi Cup features two five-man teams representing Europe and the USA doing battle in a series of singles and doubles matches. Now in its 17th year, the Americans hold an 11-4 lead following their victory in Las Vegas last December.
