It is understood that the 21 teams participating in the competition have a total of 84 athletes from 16 clubs in 10 cities and counties in Henan. The competition lasts for 4 days and is jointly sponsored by the Henan Billiards Association and the Luoyang Sports Federation.

Dahe.com reporters learned that this competition adopts the latest Chinese billiards competition rules of the Chinese billiards Association. It is divided into two stages. The first stage is the preliminaries. From 9:00 am on March 7 to the morning of March 9, a group double defeat is adopted. 6 games must be played, with 3 wins in 5 games per game; the second stage is the main stage. From 2:00 to 10 pm on March 9, a single knockout match is adopted. 8 games must be played, 3 wins in 5 games per game; if there is a draw, the penalty will be won.

In addition to the new competition rules, the prize money of this competition is also very attractive. In addition to the trophy and certificate, the champion, Asian and third-place players can receive 5,000 yuan, 2,000 yuan and 1,000 yuan respectively.

As one of the four major gentlemen's sports (tennis, golf, bowling and billiards), the environment, outfit, behavior and etiquette of billiards all reflect the noble and elegant style, and are not affected by seasonal climate; there is no vigorous physical exercise, not restricted by age and gender, and the exercise lifespan is longer than other events, which is truly "one shot in hand and lifelong benefits."

In addition, billiards are a combination of force and intelligence, integrating knowledge of mathematics and mechanics. Playing billiards for an hour requires an average of about 3,000 steps. Playing a standard snooker game, the players have to walk 10 kilometers around the table, which does not include the bent over every time hits , and is one of the best exercise methods to exercise.
