Just last week the GB9 which is Britain's Official Professional 9 Ball Tour since 2008, struck a partnership with OB Cues making them the official cue of the GB9 Tour through the end of 2013. Shane Sinnott from OB Cues had this to say about the deal, “OB Cues are delighted to be on board with the GB 9 Ball Tour, the events are very professionally run and if you play or watch American Pool in the UK, then you can't afford to miss these tournaments. Phil Burford from England who is an up and coming star on the world pool stage and former European Junior Champion is playing with OB technology and he has told us how grueling tour weekends with GB9 can be with the prospect of coming up against some truly world class players. We aim to deliver the best for him, and hopefully other tour players will see and use for themselves the products that we pride ourselves upon”.
The next GB9 event will begin at 4pm on Friday 13th July, with play taking place throughout the weekend until the evening of Sunday July 15th. Some of the best cueists from Great Britain and further afield will be looking to snatch the title off of 2011 champion Craig Osborne. Whoever comes away with the title, a truly outstanding display of pool and engrossing match play is guaranteed. Entry to the venue which is the Puma Court Hotel (formerly the Barceló Hotel for reference) is free of charge. If you can't make it down to the event don't forget to follow the action LIVE on the CueSport.TV website. There will also be Live-scoring throughout the event as usual.
