WPBSA Group Anti-Doping Procedures Update
The World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA) has today announced updated anti-doping procedures to apply to its amateur and development organisations across the WPBSA Group from the start of the 2024/25 season. This does not relate to the professional World Snooker Tour which has existing procedures organised by the WPBSA.

All players will note the relevant addition to the Standard Conditions of Entry for each of these organisations:
