Hello Guys!
So as not to take over the 'Lazy Players' thread I thought a new one outlining the Pink Ribbon may be a good idea.
All Pro's and PIOS players will start at the finals weekend in Gloucester at the South West Snooker Academy.
The academy is a non-profit organisation with any profits going to charitable causes. One of our chosen charities are breast cancer charities. Our management company, On Q Promotions, looks after several professional players, all of whom wear pink backed waistcoats in order to raise awareness of breast cancer amongst snooker fans. We are keen to promote that the 'Boys are doing it for the Girls' as this is a way men can let other men know about the signs they should be looking out for and for them to spread that knowledge to the women in their lives-wives, girlfriends, mothers, daughters etc. We also appreciate that there are a large number of women who play and watch snooker and of course if we can reach them first hand with the message then that is great!
The Pros have been keen to support this event since its conception in late 2009. So far we have the following who have registered and paid their entrance fee Jimmy White, Barry Hawkins, Barry Pinches, Ben Woolaston, Chris Norbury, Dave Harold, Gerard Greene, Judd Trump, Mark Davis, Mark Joyce, Matthew Selt, Michael Holt, Nigel Bond, Ricky Walden, Robert Milkins, Rod Lawler, Stephen Lee, Stuart Bingham, Tom Ford, Tony Drago and Dominic Dale. There are also several top 16 players interested in participating as well as more Pros who have shown an interest so we expect these numbers to increase.
If you are interested in taking part club players can qualify for the finals weekend at their local clubs. If your club is not holding a qualifying event, don't worry, you can still take part as Rileys are in the process of organising special qualifying events at their clubs.
Alternatively, If your local club is not holding a qualifying event but you would like to organise one for your club then that would be great. Anyone who organises a qualifier for their club with 10 or more entries will be given a pair of free spectator tickets for the final day of the event. If you are interested in organising a qualifying event for your club then if you contact me on sarah.mount@onqpromotions.co.uk I will be able to send you everything you will need.
Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions.
Regards
Sarah
Also, the club player who goes the furthest in the competition will win for one of our stable of professional players to perform an exhibition match at their local club where they qualified, free of charge!
