A  few points to remember about this tournament.If you dont regularly make 50 plus breaks,then you will find it a very tough competition,so perhaps a few weeks practice might be in order prior to you signing up.

The standard of play by the better players who will play in this event will be of such that you may well find yourself out of your depth very quickly,so please bear this in mind when your signing up.

Above all remember this is to find this years Virtual World  Snooker Champion and the winner of it will have earned that right no doubt by being the most consistent all the way through.

Good Luck to all.
