Dynamic Billard European Pool Championships 2018 Are Opened

The Dynamic Billard European Pool Championships 2018, the 40th anniversary event of the EPBF have been opened with a tremendous show.
 
After all 37 nations have been welcomed and walked in with a representative holding their respective national flag, the ceremony was continued with speeches from some dignitaries present. The President of the EPBF, Gre Leenders welcomed all athletes present and indicated that this event marks a milestone in the history of the EPBF. He was followed by the Director of the NH Conference Centre Koningshof who expressed his hopes that all athletes feel comfortable in his facility. Finally, the President of the Dutch Billiard Federation KNBB, Mr. Garmt Kolhorn, acknowledged the efforts of the EPBF in setting up this amazing venue and wished all athletes a successful tournament.
 
After the speeches, a futuristic show was about to begin but a small delay took place since some local authority officials needed to check for safety. This unexpected break was perfectly filled with an entertaining presentation of IBPF President David Morris who interviewed some of the guests present about their past within the EPBF. Finally, the show took place. A laser beam light show together with futuristic music and dance acrobatics entertained all spectators and athletes present. When the dance act finished, suddenly Gre Leenders appeared on stage. This show was followed by an indoor firework and the actual opening of the Championships.
