The three- cushion European championship 1957/2 was the 15th tournament in this discipline of the carom and took place from April 10th to 13th, 1957 in Antwerp , only three weeks after the Union Internationale des Fédérations d'Amateurs de Billard (UIFAB) held its EM had held.

history

Due to association disputes in the 1956/57 season between the competing associations UIFAB and Fédération Internationale de Billard (FIB), two European championships were held in 1957. After a year, however, the disputes were settled again and the usual cycle was followed.

Almost as expected, the Belgian René Vingerhoedt was able to defend his title in front of a home crowd. He won for the seventh time in a row. However, his victory was not, as usual, lossless. The game against his student Raymond Steylaerts ended in a 50:50 draw after 200 minutes . He lost another game, so that, with just one point, he won ahead of his long-term rival August Tiedtke from Düsseldorf. For the fourth time he was ahead of the game. Tiedtke was the best player in the tournament in terms of the general average (GD) and individual average (BED). The maximum series of 10 went to Raymond Steylaerts and Herman Pompeijus .

The game was “everyone against everyone” to 50 points with an equal number of shots .
