11th Asian 8-Ball Tournament set on 8 August, Nanakorn to defend crown


After a month of summer break, the Asian Tours will be back again to the light blue felt pool table this coming 8th August as the pool masters clash anew and show who’s who in the 11th edition of the Asian 8 Ball Tournament at 2 pm at the Centre Carougeois de Billard.

Defending Champion Ken Nanakorn of Thailand is expected to be in tip-top shape and will go all out in defense of his title. However, stiff opposition from the Philippine players is expected as Morris Leonor, Val Arceo, and Jimmy Menguita have been busy practicing and running out tables in preparation for the tournament.

Also, Vietnam’s Tony Truong is no push-over either. He has vowed to streak to the finals. The Philippine team continues to have a deep bench of players that can spring surprises. Aside from their veteran players, they have Ruben Zaballa, Leo Barroga, and Nilo Teodoro.


A registration fee of 35 CHF will be charged for each participating player. Players are requested to be present 15 minutes before game time. For information and registration, please call: Jerry Quinto at 079-263-68-32 or Ken Nanakorn at 076-752-53-47 or e-mail us at pbc.geneva@yahoo.com
