The new address, for all postal correspondence, is as follows:

BILLY O'CONNOR
 We would like to take this opportunity to update you on the condition of Billy who has qualified for the final stages of the National Under 16's Championships to be played at Northern Snooker Centre Leeds on Sunday 19th May.
Billy has indicated his wish to take up his place in this event even though he is continuing his treatment for Germ Cell Cancer and we are delighted to learn that his Tumour is shrinking nicely.
Arrangements have been put in place for his continuing treatment to be given at St James Hospital Leeds on the Sunday of the event and we have advised him that we will make whatever arrangements are necessary for us to accommodate this.
We would like to pass on our best wishes to Billy and his family and wish him all the very best of luck in the competition. Billy and his Mum and Dad would also like to thank everyone in the snooker world for their continued support and messages of kindness that have been given to them all during this difficult time, and they appreciate all of the love and support everyone has given them.

The new season is nearly upon is and once again the EASB have developed a comprehensive suite of competitions to suit every player. Whether you have aspirations to be a top professional or a local league player looking for a bigger challenge we have the competitions for you.
This season the focus is on providing quality playing conditions in top class venues and negotiations have led to us securing the World Snooker venue at the English Institute of Sport in Sheffield. This will be used for various events throughout the season, as will the superb facilities at the South West Snooker Academy in Gloucester. In addition to this we are indebted to the Northern Snooker Centre Leeds, Clay Cross and Frames in Coulsdon who will be supporting the EASB with sponsorship for a number of events and will be the venues for numerous events along with some new, top quality venues.
For 2012/13 we are continuing our offer of free membership for Clubs, so should your local club wish to take up this offer, then please direct them to the website for more details.
