TBE Organizing Committee Conducts In-Depth Visits to Thailand’s Snooker Industry Core Institutions, Gathering Local Insights to Build a Southeast Asian Billiards Exchange Platform
Yesterday, Our team visited Bangkok’s S1 Signature Club, Maximus Cue, Century Snooker Cue, and PS Sports Academy- four key players shaping Thailand’s snooker scene

As a long-term core partner of Xingpai, S1 is known for its professional snooker training and event facilities. During the exchange, S1 pinpointed the pain point that small Thai handmade cue brands face high participation costs and struggle to make an impact individually.

Maximus Cue is a representative high-end handmade snooker cue manufacturer in Thailand, with products meeting international standards and a strong reputation in European and Chinese markets. The brand shared its professional view on exhibition positioning and category layout based on Thailand’s local snooker industry characteristics – the Thai billiards market is overwhelmingly snooker‑oriented, with resources highly concentrated in the snooker segment.

Century Snooker Cue has long focused on precision snooker cue craftsmanship, with products well‑adapted to the usage habits of Southeast Asian players and a market footprint covering Malaysia, India, and other key countries. Drawing on years of regional experience, the team offered practical suggestions on specialized snooker displays, event content creation, and industry resource aggregation, providing direct and effective reference for TBE to refine its exhibition offerings.

PS Sports Academy is a highly popular integrated billiards venue in Thailand, equipped entirely with its own Everest series tables, cues, and accessories – a mature self‑developed and self‑manufactured system. Discussions covered high‑end table and equipment displays, venue operations, and Southeast Asian consumer market upgrades, laying a cooperative foundation for TBE to introduce quality local brands in the future.
Every piece of advice gathered during these visits will be translated into concrete actions at TBE 2026. We will adopt the above suggestions by establishing a dedicated Thai handmade cue zone, strengthening snooker‑specific content and interactive experiences, and hosting celebrity exhibition matches and 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑊𝑜𝑟𝑙𝑑 𝐵𝑖𝑙𝑙𝑖𝑎𝑟𝑑𝑠 𝐶𝑙𝑢𝑏 𝐷𝑒𝑣𝑒𝑙𝑜𝑝𝑚𝑒𝑛𝑡 𝑆𝑢𝑚𝑚𝑖𝑡 (𝑊𝐵𝑆) – 𝐵𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑘𝑜𝑘.
