IBSF Vice President, Maxime Cassis, visited Karachi as an overseer last week to get a firsthand knowledge of the championship conditions and the arrangements made by PBSA. The venue Movenpick Hotel has large halls to easily accommodate 16 tables with plenty of room as intermediate space. It is expected to have seating arrangements for about 350 people around the TV table. The accommodation for all the players and referees are in the same hotel and there is no need to travel to an outside location. WIFI is free everywhere in the hotel and there are number of restaurants for good food (International cuisine, Lebanese, Italian and local cuisines). The airport is 15 minutes away from the hotel and there are several shopping malls and restaurants in the vicinity.

In his report, Maxime Cassis concluded that he was very happy with his findings and arrangements that were being made by PBSA. He also hoped that most of the countries would send their players to take part in the event. This being the overseer report, the IBSF would leave it to the member countries to take a final call in sending their players for the 2015 IBSF 6 Reds & Teams Snooker Championship.
