Hall of Fame
The UPC celebrated its five-year anniversary in 2008, and in recognition of this milestone we decided to establish the UPC Hall Of Fame, with Paul Edwards, once of the University of Nottingham, becoming the first official inductee for his fantastic contribution to university pool. Paul received a plaque in recognition of this achievement at the 2007-2008 BUSA-UPC Eight-ball Pool Championship/Trophy event.
To read more about the Hall of Fame, Paul's achievements, and an interview with the man himself, please click here to read the article from the time, which also includes pictures from his university pool career.
