Plymothian Chris Coumbe just can’t get enough English Billiards…fresh from competing, refereeing and commentating in World Billiards events, the 2024 English Open and the 2024 World Billiards championship both held in Landywood Snooker Club, Walsall, he returned home to Plymouth to win the West of England English Billiards Open championship.
Coumbe was met in the final by former winner of WEBSF and Devon English Billiards events, Graham Ward from Sidmouth. After a closely fought contest, where both players struggled to play at their best, Coumbe won by just eight points. This title is the icing on the cake for Coumbe after wining the the Devon Open Billiards title, played at the same venue in September. Ward had the consolation of recording the highest break of the tournament.
The plate event was won by Dave Nicholls in another close match against Jack Tambling, both players are from Cornwall. Dave White from Southampton won the Plate highest break. Photo’s of the event.
The event was promoted by the West of England Billiards & Snooker Foundation, hosted and sponsored by Plymouth Snooker Academy.
