This year’s Masters promises to be something truly special. Not only will England’s very best players battle for one of the most prestigious titles in the domestic game, they will do so in Langton Green, the home of Subbuteo.

There is something fitting about the finest players in England gathering at the roots of the game. From the village where it all began, Subbuteo has grown into a truly global sport, now played competitively in more than 30 countries around the world.

For the 12 players who have earned their place, it is a huge honour to compete in the very village where the Subbuteo story started.

Alan Lee, ESA Chairman said, “I am incredibly proud to be bringing the English Masters back to Langton Green. To welcome England’s elite players to the heart and home of the game is a privilege, and I hope it will be a fitting celebration of both our history and the modern game that continues to thrive across the world”.

The countdown to Sunday 16th August 2026 begins.
