“For the first time will see players from all disability groups compete together under a new Six Red format.

“The innovative event will also be our first tournament to be held in Wales and we are looking forward to welcoming new local players, as well as familiar faces from around the globe.

“I would also like to take this opportunity to invite support from local companies who would like to partner with us for the event, to help us provide a healthy prize fund for players competing in the event.

“All contributions are gratefully received and will all be directed back to the overall prize fund.”

Further information, including the full entry pack and tournament format, will be announced shortly.
