World Snooker Tour awards

The World Snooker Tour makes annual awards in several categories, including player of the year, and established a Hall of Fame in 2011.[1][2]

The Association of Snooker Writers, a grouping of journalists who wrote about snooker, was founded in 1981.[3] In 1983, they instituted awards for players and others associated with the game, and made another set of awards in 1984.[3] From 1985, the awards were taken over by the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association.[4] In 1998, the journalists' group was reformed as the Snooker Writers' Association, and the awards were in that body's name for several years.[5][6] The awards are now administered by the World Snooker Tour.[2]
