The three-cushion world championship for national teams in 2008 was the 22nd edition of this tournament, which has been held annually since 1981 in the three- cushion billiard variant . It took place from February 14th to 17th, 2008 in Viersen , which has been a permanent World Cup venue since 1990.
Game mode
The game was played on four match billiards in Viersen. Each team consisted of two players. The best eight nations in the world rankings were seeded and went straight to the main round. The eleven other nations plus the second team of the defending champions Sweden competed against each other in groups of three in the preliminary round. The first in the group progressed to the main round.
It was played on points in the set system - in the group phase "Best of 3" in groups of three teams, from the quarter-finals "Best of 5". No 3rd place has been played since 2004. So there were 2 bronze medals. The shot clock was set to 40 seconds, with the possibility for each player to take a time-out of 40 seconds per game.
