Ton-up snooker whizz-kid Steven Gregson has achieved one of his ambitions by scoring his first match century break, and he is only 11 years old.

His previous highest match break was 69 and he hit the ton target with a 105 break in a game against his younger brother Lee, aged seven, at York's Cueball Club.

His break was witnessed by spectators Michelle Greaves and Maggie Wilson.

Steven, who has had confirmation that he can enter this year's English Under-13 Championship which starts in October, has had breaks of 81, 122 and 138 in 'line-up' practice games.

He reached the later stages of the under-14s championship last year and has a big display of club trophies from York and Harrogate.
