Grant enables Launceston brothers to play pool around the world

Posted on 26th September 2025 by

Matthew and Adam Ryall are brothers who share a love for pool! Both brothers recently received funding from Y&TC which helped fund their own pool table at home and travel costs to compete around the globe.
They recently got in touch to express their gratitude and what the funding has meant to them:
“We wanted to take a moment to express our gratitude to Young and Talented Cornwall who, over the last few years, have helped us massively financially and as a boost of confidence to help us pursue our pool playing careers. Looking ahead to next year we have the European championships in Cyprus and the world championships in Morocco, none of which would be possible without the help of Young and Talented Cornwall.
They helped fund our pool table which has been invaluable to our practise throughout the last few years with myself and my brother practising more or less every day on it. Thank you very much again.” – Matthew Ryall
