i think thats a on Going thing
at the end of next season Players that's on the Tour this season that aren't inside the Top 64 will drop off tour. But the first year players that got on tour will have 2 years.

i still think the tour cut off will be around 80-96 as opposed to the top 64 when the tour becomes 128 strong.
Or else it will just become a yo-yo with pretty much the same folk going off every season then getting straight back on via Q-School

if they cant Break in to the top 64 after a 2 year cycle then they should go back off because they arent better than the players above them.

http://www.worldsnookerqschool.com/guide-to-q-schoolThe Q School is the system for qualifying for the professional World Snooker Tour which was introduced in 2011 and will be staged again in 2013. There will be 12 places available for the professional circuit and all 12 qualifiers will be given a TWO YEAR TOUR CARD which guarantees their place on the pro circuit for a minimum of 2013/14 and 2014/15 seasons.

Kyren Wilson doesn't need to enter. He's qualified for the main tour through the PTC route.
That looks a quite low number of entrants up to now...

i dont think any formal Criteria has been set out for next Season.
this is the Criteria for this season
http://www.worldsnooker.com/staticFiles ... 127,00.pdf.
possibly after the poor showing from Ben Judge the Australasia Nomination will be withdrawn.
Who knows because nobody has said.

Mentioned on Northern Ireland Snookers Facebook page that their entry is Jordan Brown, didn't notice him listed above so guessing the 5 NGB entries need to be added to this unless the players selected have already entered in which case their entry fee would be repaid (I guess).

We had an extended closing date of 22nd April for the Scottish nomination. Dylan Craig clinched it by getting to the last 8 of the Scottish Championship yesterday.
He will get a refund from World snooker as he was entered already.
