When you think of World Class design, stand alone top quality Snooker Tables with the highest specification possible and second to none accessories there is only one company that ticks all the boxes and that is XING PAI and that was the case in Sofia, Bulgaria last September at the 2026 European Snooker Championships.

The Championships were played on the top class XING PAI Tables were praised as excellent by all of the players in the Main European Championship, the Q-Tour competitors and all the players involved in the European Disability Championships alike.

The tournament ran for just over two weeks and the XING PAI Tables proved to be incredibly durable and the Tournament Table Fitters were full of praise at the quality of the tables.

There were several different events like Individual Events, Team Events, 6 Reds and also the Annual Shootout Championships, add to this the WPBS Q-Tour Event and the European Disability Championships and it became a real festival of Snooker and since signing the magnificent sponsorship deal with XING PAI in November 2025 with the CEO of XING PAI Mr Jason Gan our players and Member Countries are absolutely thrilled with the immediate impact that has been made as now the EBSA proudly team up with the Worlds Top Snooker Table Manufacturers.

Every Champion complemented the playing conditions in Sophia and continued to praise the XING PAI tables and the general feeling from all the champions were that the condition of the Championship Tables were Excellent.

The newley elected Vice Chairman of the EBSA Mr Oleg Velinov who is the President of the Bulgarian Snooker Federation and runs the Bulgarian Snooker Academy that also houses XING PAI tables, because only the best will do.

So as another very succesful European Championships comes to an end there are many reasons why this event ran so well. The Host Organisation, the EBSA Team, the Venue, the top class Referees and of course the Players, but none of these things would have mattered without the best Snooker Table in the World XING PAI.
