The first silverware of the 2025-26 season is on offer at the Championship League, and you can follow the latest results and schedule here.
The sixth staging of the ranking edition of the event, which runs from June 30 to July 23, will see 128 players compete across three stages at the Mattioli Arena in Leicester.
All players are divided into 32 groups of four. The 32 players that top the group tables qualify for the group winners’ stage, consisting of eight groups of four players.
The eight winners from the group winners’ stage then qualify for the two final groups. The overall winner takes the £33,000 title and a place at the Champion of Champions later this year.
Ali Carter is the defending champion, having beaten Jackson Page 3-1 in last year’s final.
The Captain is joined by 2023 champion Shaun Murphy and 2021 victor David Gilbert, along with three former winners of the invitational edition in Stuart Bingham, Matthew Stevens and Scott Donaldson.
Along with Murphy, Si Jiahui, Barry Hawkins, Zhang Anda and Chris Wakelin comprise the top-16 contingent, but the likes of Judd Trump, Ronnie O’Sullivan, Mark Selby, John Higgins, Mark Williams and World champion Zhao Xintong have opted not to participate.
The groups are contested over a round-robin format, with all matches played as best of four frames, with three points awarded for a win and one point for a draw.
Group positions are determined by points scored, frame difference and then head-to-head results between players who were tied. Places that are still tied are then determined by the highest break made in the group.
