Cork's Aaron Hill completed an incredible double this week.

The Corkman added the EBSA European U21 Championship to his under 18 crown, defeating Hayden Staniland 5-2 in the final in Portugal.

The result means that Hill has earned a two year World Snooker Tour card, and becomes the first ever play to win the under 18 and under 21 titles in the same year.

Hill raced into a 4-0 lead in the final, however after the break Staniland fought back to reduce the gap to 4-2.

However Hill wasn't phased, taking frame 7 to secure the victory, and earn his place in the history books.
