In a keenly contested final Aderibigbe a.k.a Boss square up with Nojeem Waliu who led till the end of the 3rd time out of the contest but after deploring a more defensive tactical strategy Aderibigbe was able to level up the match at 10 – 10, Aderibigbe maintained his tactical strategy which gave him a 15 – 11 victory at the end of the final game.

The victory fetched Aderibigbe the N100,000.00 prize money courtesy of Moneytronics Microfinance Bank who are partnering a Snooker and Pool Players Alliance of Nigeria-sanctioned tournament for the first time.

By emerging the winner of the Joy Heybal Masters Division One Tour #3 Nigeria Qualifier, Adegbite will be joining Bamidele Shehu winner of Tour #2 edition to travel to China to participate in the main event that is scheduled to hold from 17th -27th August, 2023.

Heyball was introduced to Nigeria in October 2019 after the signing of the agreement between Joy Billiards Sports Promotion Company, China, and Fiji Ventures Limited. The agreement requires that FIJI Ventures Limited organized 5 Nigeria Qualifiers under the Joy Heyball Masters brand name with the winners being offered sponsorship opportunities to participate in the main events in China.

Joachim Idada, President of Snooker and Pool Players Alliance (SPPA) reiterated the need to continue to build cue sport in Nigeria “There is light at the end of the tunnel and we will continue to build the proper structure that will build Billiard’s sport in Nigeria and connect with the growing international circuits. we must be counted as a Billiard playing nation in Africa and globally, we must have our players like Shehu, Adebite, Nojeem and the others that are scattered all over Nigeria being given the opportunity to pursue a possible international career, this is just the beginning.” He said.
