16 year old Aaron Hill from Crucible SC in Cork won the first IBSF / RIBSA Under 18 Snooker Ranking event of the season in the Ivy Rooms Snooker Club, Carlow on Saturday 2nd of February 2019.

The final featured two of our young rising stars of the game in Aaron Hill and Ross Bulman from Youghal CYMS and both players were in excellent form. The final was great quality but it was Aaron who won the opening frame to led 1-0, back came Ross with fantastic 122 break to level match at 1-1. Aaron won the third to led 2-1 and won the fourth on the black to win the match 3-1 and goes Number 1 in rankings for China.
