(openPR) - CueSport TV, the Internet Pool & Snooker Channel has been successful in its bid to broadcast the European Blackball Association Masters in April.

The deal struck with the EBA makes CueSport TV the official streaming media partner of the EBA Masters and the 11-person team World Championships.

Vice-Chairman of the EBA, Ross McInnes, said, “The EBA Masters in it’s previous incarnations has had television coverage, however, none of this coverage was live or even broadcast outside of the UK, having CueSport TV broadcast live from the event will add prestige and open up the doors for the Blackball Pool discipline.”

Pete Williams, Managing Director of CueSport TV Ltd, went on to say, “We have been heavily involved with Blackball since we launched the channel in 2007, we failed in last years attempt to bring the EBA Masters to the channel but are delighted that the hard work that we have put in over the past 12 months is starting to pay off. It is a great delight to have an international quality event and World Championships broadcast live on CueSport TV for the first time.”

The Bridlington SPA in East Riding of Yorkshire will once again host the EBA Masters. This once shabby venue has been completely renovated to turn it into a world-class concert and events arena fit for a tournament of this calibre.

In addition, the EBA are not resting on their laurels and have purchased 40 brand new Simply Pool tables specifically for use at this event, thus making it the pinnacle of the Blackball discipline.

CueSport TV will be live from the Bridlington SPA from 12pm on the 8th April and will broadcast live up to and including the finals on the 10th April.
