Behind every great billiards event, there are referees making sure the competition runs fairly and smoothly๐ŸŽฑ๐ŸŽฅ During the European Heyball Championships 2026 in Kielce, our cameras had the opportunity to take a closer look at their work โ€” the focus, responsibility and attention to detail that often remain unnoticed by the audience.

That is exactly what our latest video is about: the people who play a crucial role in every major billiards competition.

๐ŸŽค Miha Vovko, Head Referee of the EPBF, tells us more about the refereeโ€™s job, the challenges behind it and why this role is so important for the sport.

Sport is not only about results. Itโ€™s also about the joy of playingโค๏ธ๐ŸŽฑ

Big tournaments, pressure, rankings and the fight for every rack are all part of professional sport. But just as important is the fact that players simply love playing billiards and genuinely enjoy being at the tableโค๏ธ You can see it perfectly in the photos from the Predator Euro Tour โ€” smiles, emotions, concentration, but above all the pure enjoyment of the game๐Ÿ‘

And perhaps that is one of billiardsโ€™ greatest strengths๐ŸŽฑ These are the moments we love to see.

Behind every event โ€” big or small โ€” there is a team making sure everything runs smoothly๐ŸŽฑ๐ŸŽฅ

They take care of the live stream, technical setup, video production, photography, match commentary, broadcast cameras, social media, volunteer coordination and countless other details that often remain invisible to the audience.

The European Heyball Championships and the European Heyball Open KIELCE, POLAND 2026 were no exception. A dedicated crew worked behind the scenes throughout both events โ€” and these are the people you can see in the photo together with our volunteers๐Ÿ‘

Among them is also Kasia Skrzypiec, a true billiards enthusiast and the creator of the On Cue Podcast, helping bring the events in Poland to a wider audience๐ŸŽ™๏ธ๐ŸŽฑ

A huge thank you to everyone who helped make these events happen. Your work, energy and commitment were absolutely essentialโค๏ธ
