Pool players outside the top 128 on the World Nineball Tour (WNT) now have the chance to compete in the 2025 UK Open Pool Championship, set to take place from May 6–11, 2025 at the Telford International Centre, Telford, United Kingdom. This landmark tournament will be the first Major Open event to adopt the WNT’s new qualification system.
Open Qualifiers for Aspiring Players
Four qualifying events across the UK offer players aged 16 and over the opportunity to secure their spot at the 2025 UK Open. Participants may enter multiple qualifiers to maximise their chances, but once qualified for the UK Open, they are no longer eligible to compete in further qualifiers for the same event.
Each qualifier will award eight spots to the UK Open, meaning 32 places are up for grabs. Below are the confirmed qualifier dates, venues, and entry details:
