EPRA

The Country

In order to make management of England's Pool playing nation easier the English Pool Association (EPA) split the country into different geographical areas, called Regions. From 2011, the playing Regions were numbered one through to eight as illustrated in the map here.

It is the Region's job to administer all aspects of EPA Pool within their boundaries and to ensure that the wishes of the EPA's members are carried out.

The EPRA uses the same regional structure as defined by the EPA and each region aims to have a local delegate to administer all things refereeing in their region. Click here for information about the current staff members including the delegates.

We also go beyond just England and happily cater for referees wishing to join us from further afield, and the areas included are also managed by the regions as listed below.
