The 2000 European Pool Billiards Championship was a pool tournament that took place from March 31 to April 10, 2000 in the Festival Hall in Bregenz . After 1985 and 1992 , the European Championship was held in Austria for the third time .

The disciplines 8-ball , 9-ball and 14/1 were played out endlessly for women, men and wheelchair users, although the wheelchair users did not play 14/1 endlessly. European team champions were also determined for men and women.

In the final against the Dutchman Alex Lely , the German Oliver Ortmann was European champion in 14/1. A year earlier he had lost the final against the Swede Marcus Chamat , who was now 9-ball European champion by beating Ralf Souquet in the final . In the 8-ball final, defending champion Souquet won against Thomas Engert . The Engert and Ortmann also won a bronze medal, as did the Swiss Samuel Clemann and the Finn Mika Immonen . The French Stephan Cohen won bronze twice.

Defending champion Franziska Stark lost against Sweden's Christina Niklasson in the women's 14/1 . In the 8-ball final against Karin Mayet , however, Stark managed to defend her title from last year. Mayet was European champion in the final against Line Kjørsvik from Norway . In addition, the Germans Daniela Husseneder , Sandra Ortner and Stark each won a bronze medal.

Among the wheelchair users, the Belgian Kurt Deklerck and the Swede Henrik Larsson met in both finals . Deklerck defeated the defending champion in 8-ball, and in 9-ball he lost as defending champion to Larsson. The Austrian Emil Schranz and the German Tankred Volkmer won bronze in the 8-ball.

In the men's teams, defending champion Germany lost to last year's final against the Netherlands, who thus became European champions for the first time. Finland and Sweden took third place. The women's European team champion was defending champion Sweden in the final against Switzerland. Austria and Germany won the bronze medals.
