history

The name of the tournament Champion of Champions was chosen because 9 world champions and one 4-time junior world champion take part in the tournament. The tournament is named after the businessman and likely inventor of the three- band Wayman McCreery (1851–1901) from St. Louis, Missouri. McCreery was also a very successful athlete of his time. The time of the first event is the 140th anniversary of the first three-band tournament in 1878, 50 years before the first World Cup in Reims, France, in 1928.
