Tournament summary

The first World Amateur Snooker Championship was held in 1963, and, after the second event in 1966, had been played every two years since.[1] The 1984 tournament was held in Dublin from 17 October to 4 November 1984 at the Grand Hotel in Malahide, County Dublin.[2][3][4] The tournament became an annual event from 1985.[4]

For 1984, there were 41 competitors, from 22 different countries, who played in Round-robin groups. The top two players from each group qualified for the quarter-finals.[4] Defending champion Terry Parsons was the top seed, with Tony Drago second.[2] The tournament was sponsored by Benson and Hedges, and was also known as the Benson and Hedges World Amateur Championship.[5] In the first frame of his qualifying group match against Henry Thwaites, 15-year-old Stephen Hendry scored a break of 118.[6] Alain Robidoux narrowly failed to qualify from qualifying group B.

On 31 October 1984, the IBSF's annual general meeting voted to change its constitution, state that it was the governing body of international amateur snooker in "co-operation with" the Billiards and Snooker Control Council (B&SCC). At this time, the B&SCC's constitution proclaimed itself as the governing body for amateur snooker.[9]
