India to Host 2026 WPA Heyball World Championships in Pune
The World Pool Association (WPA) has confirmed that Pune, India, will be the host city for the 2026 WPA Heyball World Championships, scheduled from 12 to 15 August 2026. This marks a significant milestone for the cue sports community in Asia, as the event will bring together top players from around the globe for what is considered one of the premier Heyball competitions in the world.
The tournament will be organized in collaboration with the Billiards & Snooker Federation of India (BSFI), which has been instrumental in promoting cue sports across the country. This partnership is expected to further elevate the profile of Heyball in India, a nation that has been witnessing a rapid increase in interest and participation in cue sports over the past few years.
The decision to host the championships in Pune reflects the city's growing reputation as a hub for sports and entertainment, as well as its infrastructure capabilities. The event is anticipated to draw a large audience and generate significant media coverage, further boosting the visibility of Heyball on the international stage.
