The EBSA European Snooker Championship is the premier amateur snooker tournament in Europe, sanctioned by the European Billiards and Snooker Association (EBSA). There are multiple formats of snooker to be competed in two seasonal events annually, including the spring event to hold the men's and junior Championship and the autumn event to hold the women's, senior, disability, shoot-out, 6-reds and team Championships.
The men's event, being the major competition of the Championship, first took place in 1988 and has been held annually since 1993. In most years, the winner of the tournament qualifies for the next two seasons of the World Snooker Tour.
