The World Eight-ball Pool Federation is an international pool governing body overseeing international tournaments and rankings (sometimes called, as evidenced by the organisation name, eight-ball, which is ambiguous, as that term more globally applies to the related American-style game). As such, the WEPF competes for authority and membership with the World Pool-Billiard Association (WPA), which produces its own differing blackball rules and tournaments.
The current men's champion is England's Mick Hill who beat fellow countryman and three times champion Gareth Potts 11-8 in the Final. In the ladies event, Sue Thompson of Scotland defeated Northern Ireland's Emma Cunningham 8-4. The tournaments were held at the Imperial Hotel in Blackpool, UK from in 2010. [1]
