The photo gallery has been rearranged with some new photos of Matt in action, including in his first exhibition with Jimmy White in his home town of Doncaster in 2008, where in front of a crowd of between 500-2000 people Matt demonstrated what he is capable of with a cue in hand, in perhaps his best ever display. There are also photographs taken during Matt's campaign on the UK wheelchair 9-ball pool tour courtesy of ww.belleza-photography.co.uk. To view the updated photo page please click here. |

Matt is back in action on the practise table at Rileys in Barnsley and in training for the second BWPPA tour event which will be held at Rileys Barnsley on the weekend of 27-28th June. Matt has been ill since February and had to have a biopsy after doctors found lymph nodes on his chest but the results came back negative. "I've been eating well, and feeling good for a few weeks now, I've got the strength back in my cueing arm and watching pool on TV drove me mad, I'm pleased to be back at Barnsley and the result from the biopsy is a huge relief. Over the next few weeks I'm going to practise hard and spend time with my fiancee and I'll be firing on all cylinders at the next event." |
