The north west open billiards championship was held on Sunday 2nd October 2016 at the Eastham Home Guard Club, Park Road on the Wirral. This annual event is also known at the Strachan Challenge Cup was limited to 16 players due to limited tables.
The event was won by Geoff Brassington a regular EABA player who from his first match where he had breaks of 117 and 49 was the player on form. In runner up spot in his first north west final was our own Peter Stanyer. The final was a one way affair with Geoffs first visit of 91 setting the tone. He ran in 5 other breaks of 40+ to make it an easy victory.
Thanks go to our referee John Squires and Eddie Fielding who acted as tournament director/organiser.
