British Junior Snooker Championship

The British Junior Snooker Championship was a snooker tournament organised, usually as two age-restricted competitions, by the Billiards and Snooker Control Council (B&SCC), which was known as the Billiards Association and Control Council (BA&CC) until 1971. The under-19 competition was sometimes called the Junior Championship, and the under-16 tournament was occasionally called the Boys' Championship.[1][2]

The BA&CC had established the British Junior English Billiards Championship in 1922.[3] In 1943 the Boys' Snooker Championship Association was formed, and invited boys under the age of 16 who were amateurs to enter its "All-England Snooker Championship".[4][5] An article in The Billiard Player, the official magazine of the BA&CC, stated that "Although the BA&CC takes no cognizance of players under the age of 16, it looks forward with interest to the progress of this Championship."[4] The final of the first edition was held on 7 March 1944 at Baths Hall, Scunthorpe, and was attended by over 1,000 spectators.[6] Gary Owen defeated Percy Hinton by 4 frames to 3 to take the inaugural title.[6] In 1945, the Boys' Snooker Championship Association formally affiliated itself to the BA&CC.[7] World snooker champion Joe Davis refereed the final that year, and Raymond Glendenning recorded commentary for BBC Radio.[8][9] This under-16 snooker championship ran annually until 1949, when the venue moved to Burroughes and Watts, London, under the auspices of the BA&CC.[3][10]

In 1948, the BA&CC held a championship for boys aged 16 to 18, which was organised by W. J. Rainbow of Burroughes and Watts at Burroughes Hall, and became an annual event.[11][12] Burroughes and Watts ceased trading in 1966, and there were no junior championships in 1967.[13] Journalist Clive Everton was responsible for the revival of the championship in 1968.[13] He arranged sponsorship from manufacturers Accles & Pollock, who were promoting a tubular steel cue, and the venue became their sports club in Oldbury.[13][14] From 1974, the renamed B&SCC reassumed responsibility for the event.[15]

For 1992, the B&SCC decided to replace the under-16 and under-19 tournaments with a single under-18 event.[16] However, the B&SCC went into voluntary liquidation during the 1991–92 snooker season[17] and that year's tournament was staged with the support of the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA).[18] Stephen Lee won the championship by defeating Paul Hunter 4–2, and went on to win the English Amateur Championship a week later.[16] In 1993 the WPBSA established the English Association of Snooker and Billiards (EASB) with the aim of the EASB becoming the governing body for amateur snooker and English billiards in England.[19][20] The EASB established its own under-17 championship for 1994.[21]
