Snooker

The World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association -WPBSA, also known as World Snooker, founded in 1968 as the Professional Billiard Players' Association and is the governing body for the professional game. Its subsidiary, World Snooker, based in Bristol, organises the professional tour. Over the years the board of the WPBSA has changed many times, which some argue is an indication of in-fighting within the sport. The amateur game is governed by the International Billiards and Snooker Federation ?IBSF.
