The English Pool Association (aka EPA) is recognised by Sport England as the governing body for pool in England.
The Association has a wide range of opportunities for players of all abilities to enjoy the game of 8 ball pool - there's a level for everyone ranging from local league through to England National Teams.
Besides competing at World (wepf.org) and European Championships (euro8ball.com) the Association holds several National competitions/tours throughout the course of each year which attract very large numbers of entrants whether by qualification or choice.
With age groups encompassing Juniors, Under 23's, Adults (Men's & Ladies sections) and Seniors (Over 50's) there really is a place for any pool player to fit in with like minded people.
