PREDATOR LIVE TRAINING DAY TO BRING FANS UNIQUE INSIGHT AHEAD OF PARTYPOKER MOSCONI CUP

MOSCONI CUP November 25th, 2020 :
Quote .
"
Matchroom Multi Sport, in partnership with Predator Cues, will bring pool fans a unique insight into partypoker Mosconi Cup preparations this year with the Predator Live Training Day, a two-hour live stream event on Sunday, November 29.

Live from inside the event bubble at Ricoh Arena, Coventry from 6pm UK time (1pm Eastern), the Predator Live Training Day will see both teams take to the table for one hour each as they are put through their paces by their captains.

From 6pm, Alex Lely and Karl Boyes will lead a specially constructed Team Europe practice session, designed for live stream enjoyment, as the Captains put the final touches to their team ahead of next Tuesday’s partypoker Mosconi Cup. Viewers will also hear from all five players plus the Captain and Vice-Captain.

From 7pm (2pm Eastern), Team USA will take over with Jeremy Jones and Joey Gray leading the defending champions in one of their final practice sessions before the Cup begins.

Fans will be able to watch live on Matchroom Pool’s YouTube Channel, as well as on Matchroom Pool and Predator Facebook pages.

Emily Frazer, Managing Director of Matchroom Multi Sport, said: “With a few changes to the partypoker Mosconi Cup this year as well as usual pre-event activities, together with our friends at Predator we have decided to give fans a more backstage feel and allow a further insight to the players’ team training. With the entire year gearing up and all pool fans anticipating what outcome the Mosconi Cup will bring, it is a rare treat to give viewers a sneak preview into the training camp.

“Viewers will be able to catch both Team Europe and Team USA in action just two days ahead of the event; with this being the first time both teams are in presence of one another – it may just show who really is the favourite. See exclusive live interviews with the teams, their training equipment, strategy, and team mindset.

“Despite a lot of change this year, we are pushing to keep team spirit high and this training day will re-ignite the fire amongst the teams as well as fans at home to what will be a memorable partypoker Mosconi Cup. With the support of our partners at Predator, viewers will be able to tune in via both Matchroom Pool and Predator social media pages and receive exclusive content.”

Karim Belhaj, CEO of Predator Group, added: “We are thrilled to see our long-time partner Matchroom Multi Sport bring the Mosconi Cup to pool fans this year. The livestream sneak peak into the training of the teams is one of many innovative ideas that will surely please pool fans! We can’t wait to follow the event and see which team will bring the trophy home this year!”

Predator Live Training Day will commence at 6pm (UK time) on Sunday, November 29. The 2020 partypoker Mosconi Cup press conference will be live streamed on Matchroom Pool YouTube and Facebook pages from 7pm (UK time) on Monday, November 30.

The 2020 partypoker Mosconi Cup begins at 6:30pm (UK time) on Tuesday, December 1. The event will be broadcast live in full on Sky Sports in the UK, DAZN in America, Germany, Austria and all over DAZN territories. Full broadcast details can be found at MatchroomPool.com."

This is to happen , fans allowed back into sports from December 2nd but it all depends on what area has what Tier system to how many fans will be allowed in .

When the PDC Darts event is all over the cleaners and interior designers move into get the Ricoh Arena prepared for The Mosconi Cup 2020 so let's have a look at the odds .

My guess is that if Emperor Hearn knew what was to happen with the Tier system etc he would have kept the Mosconi Cup 2020 event as scheduled but unfortunately it's PM Boris 'Bonkers' Johnson running the UK and nobody knows what happens next probably not even him !

Ahead of The Mosconi Cup this happened in The Richo Arena :

Darts results: Michael van Gerwen beats Mervyn King in fiery clash to win Players Championship Finals title :

https://www.sportinglife.com/darts/news/mvg-beats-king-in-players-final/186979

MVG took the title but did not impress enough to lump on for the worlds .

So what's the PDC Players championships got to do with a billiards thread ?

Emperor Hearn hosted the PDC Players Championships Finals at the Richo Arena and Secret Agent Covid-19 was nowhere to be seen , it's as if it's invisible but that gives me the go ahead to post some odds !

Secret Agent Covid -19 is very naughty :
