So the first tournament with a Pro Tour card for 2016/17 and 2017/18 at stake!
British Isles entries
EBSA entry - Louis Heathcote (England)
England - Ashley Carty, Luke Garland, Joe O'Connor, Brandon Sergeant
Ireland - Josh Boileau (2014 runner-up), Stephen Bateman, Shane Bates, Adam Fitzgerald, Aaron Moyles
Scotland - Dylan Craig, Lee Mein, Chris Totten
Wales - Jamie Clarke, Callum Lloyd, Tom Rees, Tyler Rees
Some other interesting entries
Australia - Arthur Lin, Ryan Thomerson
Austria - Dominik Scherübl. Florian Nüssle
China - Wáng Yŭchén , Zhào Xīntóng
Germany - Lukas Kleckers, Simon Lichtenberg
Hong Kong Tam Yun Fung
India - Shrikrishna Suryanarayanan
Iran - Siyavosh Mozayani, Alireza Rezaei
Israel - Shachar Ruberg, Maor Shalom
Latvia - Rodion Judin
Lithuania - Vilius Schulte
Malta - Brian Cini, Chris Peplow
Poland - Mateusz Baranowski, Kacper Filipiak, Kamil Zubrzycki
Sweden - Benjamin McCabe
Thailand - Boonyarit Keattikun, Ratchayothin Yotharuck
Inevitably Ukraine has entered 9 year old 'wunderkind' Iulian Boiko, and I think this is the first international competition for young Polish hope Antoni Kowalski (aged 11)
Thin Ladies competition, inevitably no British isles entries - Yana Shut of Belarus and Thailand's Siripaporn Nuanthakhamjan and Nutcharat Wongharuthai likely the favourites. Interesting that India has entered 4 players, not names I recognise but probably my ignorance!
