Blackball Tables first started in 2018 when ex-pool world champion and our founder – Ross McInnes, envisioned creating the perfect pool table.
Ross had a successful 30-year career playing pool at the highest level amassing an eye-watering number of championships. By 2002, he had lifted more World and European titles than anyone in history. With Ross’s advanced knowledge of the game, he believed he could create high-quality tournament-ready pool tables for everybody.
Fast forward a few years, a national pandemic, and a lot has changed for Blackball Tables. Ross has decided to take a step back. Their new Managing Director is his wife and ex-professional snooker referee – Michaela McInnes (whom you may know as Michaela Tabb), who has some astonishing accolades of her own. After leaving her refereeing career behind, Michaela entered the business world.
As far as Blackball Tables are concerned, they have seen their business grow exponentially over the past few years, with our bespoke tables now being sent to every corner of the globe. They have tables everywhere, from Australia to Morocco, and they have big plans for the future. Their tables have also been selected for use by professional associations such as the World Blackball Championship.
