Message of WelcomeFAROUK BARKI

President Union Mondiale de Billard

Dear sports fans,

Once again, we are gathering in the beautiful city of Viersen to attend the World Championships Three-Cushion for National Teams for the 35th time in a row from 26 February to 1 March 2026.

The DBU, with its reliable partners from government, town hall and business, consistently succeeds in making this event an annual highlight in the sporting calendar.

Viersen has become a second home to me personally, and I would like to express the hope of many that this will remain so in the future.

It is always a great pleasure for everyone, from players and officials to fans, to come together here. I look forward to seeing everyone there!

Kind regards,

Farouk Barki
President Union Mondial de Billard
