Brunswick Billiards Supports Billiards in Europe, Sponsoring the Inaugural Brunswick European 10-Ball Open

Brunswick Billiards has been connecting generations through superior craftsmanship and innovation since 1845. They have been a leader in the industry of pool by supporting high quality events as well as continuing to lead with streamlined and innovative design. 

The Gold Crown family of tables is personally what I grew up playing on, and I have always been impressed by the evolving spirit and style of the tables, leading up to their most recent Gold Crown V. 

Brunswick Billiards partner Billiard Beckmann in Kaiserslautern, Germany, worked alongside the owners of Max Billiards Center in Oberhausen to establish Europe’s most stunning billiards club. 

Max Billiards truly is groundbreaking and welcomed 64 top players in the inaugural Brunswick European 10-Ball Open. 

Pool rooms and game rooms in homes, in my opinion, serve as an awesome social environment to connect and have fun with family and friends. Wether your goal is competition or entertainment, the pool table remains in my opinion the heart that stirs the blood of the largest participation sport on the planet. 

Be sure to read the press release below from Brunswick Billiards on their newest groundbreaking venture.

BRUNSWICK BILLIARDS SUPPORTS GROWING POPULARITY OF SPORT IN EUROPE

Sponsors First Tournament at New, One-of-a-Kind Max Billiards in Germany

 

BRISTOL, Wis. (April 27, 2009) –  Brunswick Billiards, through its partner Billiard Beckmann in Kaiserslautern, Germany, worked alongside the owners of Max Billiards Center in Oberhausen to establish Europe’s most stunning billiards club. The site recently hosted its first tournament, welcoming 64 top players in the Brunswick European 10-Ball Open.

This 25-table club is a one-of-a kind billiards venue housed in a building originally constructed in 1909 as a power plant and steel mill that built turbine engines. The space’s 50-foot ceilings create a unique environment for the facility’s upscale décor, which includes 20-foot-tall, custom Art Deco lamps that pop in various colors to the beat of the music. Massive arched windows drip with red velvet drapes to create an opulent, crimson glow throughout the room.

In addition to housing 23 Brunswick Gold Crown V tables and two Riley snooker tables, the massive recreation facility also features four indoor soccer arenas, a disco and a concert hall.

“After seeing Max Billiards Center, it almost goes without saying that there is no other place like this in the world,” said Rob Sheets, vice president international and commercial sales for Brunswick Billiards. “It’s a statement-making space for the international billiards scene, and we look forward to supporting the continued growth of the sport in Europe as well as sponsoring future billiards events at this spectacular venue again soon.”
