 | | The WCBS was finally inaugurated in Yverdon-les-Bains, Switzerland, on 25 January, 1992, under the late A. Gagnaux (UMB) as the first WCBS President. |
 | | With the IF status granted by the IOC, the WCBS became active again in applying for billiard sports to be included in the Olympic programme but all efforts were stifled because of, as the saying goes, "the bus is now full" and it was unfortunately reduced to a passenger eagerly awaiting its chance. |
 | | The WCBS put up a tremendous show in Akita for their first World Games appearance, which led to the IWGA reaffirm the entry of the billiards sports in the VII World Games scheduled for Duisburg, Germany, from 14-24 July, 2005, with the venue for billiard sports venue being Saalbau in Bottrop. |
