Snooker and Billiards NSW is responsible for running all NSW State Championships for women’s snooker - including both the NSW State Women’s Championship and the NSW State Women’s Minor Snooker Championship. We are also involved in a number of initiatives such as coaching clinics, social events & the very successful 2021 Wests Illawarra Women’s Championship & Development Seminar. If you are interested in participating in women’s events, please contact Carlie Tait.

NSW Women’s Billiards Championships

The Billiards Sub-Committee forms part of Snooker and Billiards NSW and is responsible for the development and promotion of Billiards in NSW. They manage all of the NSW Billiards Championships across the state. In 2020 they relaunched the NSW State Women’s Billiards Championship (Daisy Eddy Cup), after a long drought of Women’s Billiards in NSW. The Sub-Committee is made up of the following representatives: Peter Tankard, Andy De Haan and David McMahon. Steve Cowie ESM is also active as Tournament Director for many of the Billiards events in NSW.

Australian Women’s Open Snooker

Snooker and Billiards NSW in partnership with the Australian Billiards and Snooker Council (ABSC) is responsible for the running of the Australian Open Women’s Snooker each year in October at the Mounties club in Mt Pritchard Sydney. From 2018, the event was classed a World Ranking event and is in affiliation with World Women’s Snooker (WWS).

Asia-Pacific Women’s Snooker Championship

The Mounties Club will also play host to the inaugural staging of the Asia-Pacific Women’s Snooker Championship, which is set to run from 31 January – 3 February 2023.

The world ranking event will be the second of the season to be held at the Mounties venue and for the first time in Australia will also include an Under-21 competition to be held alongside the main tournament.

NSW Women’s Minor Snooker Championship

2022 we welcomed Gosford RSL Club as the new host & sponsor of this event, for at least 3 years. This event is an ideal entry level tournament for women - more friendly than fiercely competitive. It's a great introduction to women's competition snooker, without being intimidating - typically a friendly group of female cueists that are always ready to welcome any newcomers. So if you know of any women that may be interested, please encourage them to enter or get in touch.
