International Eight Ball Rules

The Pair's Cup is a new team competition for 2026 - 2027 season and will consist of three sets of three single frame doubles matches. Only caveat is that the pairs swap for each set so that you don't

​play with the same doubles partner more than once.

The Pair's Cup will be played in a Round Robin format, with each of the league teams playing the other teams once. The Round Robin fixtures will be completed over 7 weeks and will be played on the same 

night as Shoot Out Shield fixtures. Matches will be played in the same venue

Dates, locations and fixtures are detailed below

After the Round Robin fixtures have been completed, the top four teams will go forward to
