MESSAGE OF WELCOMEANDREA MILZ

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,
Dear Friends of Billiards,
A warm welcome to the 37th World Championship Three Cushion National Teams in Viersen. I am delighted that this prestigious event is being held in the Festhalle in Viersen for the 34th consecutive time.
Known as the Wimbledon of Billiards, the Festhalle will once again provide a magnificent setting for the 16 teams of two from around the world. We can look forward to many thrilling matches as they compete for the prestigious title world champion in three cushion billiards, one of the most demanding disciplines of carom billiards.
This championship is the most important event of the year in the international calendar for the sport’s top athletes.
Will Team Vietnam, which secured its first-ever title in a dramatic final in 2024, be able to defend its championship? Or will Turkey reclaim the trophy, having won the title multiple times in the past? The four days of the tournament will show.
I extend my sincere gratitude to the Deutsche Billard-Union for its outstanding dedication in organizing this event. My special thanks also go to the many sponsors, partners, and especially the numerous volunteers whose commitment and efforts make this world-class competition possible.
I wish all athletes and spectators exciting and successful matches and the event a smooth and successful course.
