After a successful inaugural event last year, the 2008 The Co-operative Funeralcare World Matchplay Championship will take place again at the Ponds Forge International Arena in Sheffield, England, from 10-11 July.
The event will feature the top eight players in next season's WBT World Rankings, led by England's defending champion Greg Harlow, the world No2 from Cambridgeshire, and world number one Alex Marshall, the record five-time World Champion from Scotland.
Action from the event will be broadcast live on Sky Sports, followed by recorded highlights.
