The three-cushion European championship in 1984 was the 42nd tournament in this discipline of carom billiards and took place from March 8th to 11th, 1984 in Leuven . It was the eighth three-cushion European Championship in Belgium.

history

For the first time, the three-cushion EM was played in the sentence system. Each game consisted of two sets of 25 points. This made a draw possible. The Belgian serial winner Raymond Ceulemans went without a medal for the first time in his 23rd participation in a three-cushion European Championship. In the group stage, a draw in the last game against Dieter Müller from Berlin was not enough to win the group, as Ceulemans completely surprisingly gave a set against the Italian Francesco Monticciolo. The second German participant Günter Siebert also secured group victory, as did the Dutchman Rini van Bracht and the Frenchman Egidio Vierat. In the first semi-final, Vierat won the first set with 25:23. Müller secured the second set with 25:13. So there was an extension. The French submitted 5 points. Müller only managed two points. So Vierat was in the final. In the second semi-final Siebert lost with 16:25 and 22:25. In the game for third place there was a German duel. Here the Bottrop won against the Berliner with 25:21 and 25:22 and after 1960 again brought a three-cushion medal to Germany. The final was extremely exciting. Van Bracht won the first set with 25:19. The second went to Vierat with 25:19. Van Bracht only managed one point in extra time. Vierat also only managed one point. Another extension was necessary. Again just one point for van Bracht. Vierat showed nerves and skipped the opening ball. As a result, the three-cushion title went back to the Netherlands for the first time since 1950.

mode

In the preliminary round, the game was played in the "everyone against everyone" system for two sets of 25 points with a follow-up / equal intake . The group winners qualified for the semi-finals.
