IBSF U21 World Championships

[Martin76]

Hi all!

Does anybody know of some good sites on this tournament? I've tried www.ibsf.org, but the site is crap IMO.

I'm looking for some match reports or something like that, preferably live scoring, but that is probably a bit of a stretch.

For the first time (I think) Sweden have two players entering the event, and I would like to know how they do, since I know both of them a little bit. They will probably not stand much of a chance against the better players from Great Britain and Asia, but I guess you never know. It sure will be an experience for them.

GCS is covering the event and we'll try and keep as up to date as possible with results. Sadly we're not there live ourselves and are relying on officials to feed the scores through to us

Come on Matt Williams! Do Plymouth proud!

You could try our Indian site. Its www.cuesportsindia.com

Thanks for the tips!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for Douglas Appelberg and Christoffer Koba! Surprise the snooker world!

[JanieWatkins]

Is it the top 2 who go through?
If so I can't see Matt Williams finishing above Moh Keen Ho and Vincent Muldoon.

[JanieWatkins]

Top 4 from the 8 groups qualify for the last 32 knock out stage

[Martin76]

Am I reading the results correctly? Did Christoffer Koba win his first match against Yu Delu on Walk-over in Group F?
Wonder what happened...

[JanieWatkins]

Yes, you're reading correct. China and Syria players were late arriving due to VISA delays

they have put in an appeal to the organisers that the matches they missed can be re-arranged into the schedule.

[Martin76]

Oh, I see.

Well, I hope they can reorganise the schedule, even though I think Koba will have a veeery difficult time with Delu (based on nothing more than him being chinese, admittedly).
