The 1983 Junior Pot Black was the third staging of the junior snooker tournament and last of the original run which was held in the Pebble Mill Studios in Birmingham. 8 young players were competing in a knockout format. The matches are one-frame shoot-outs and a 2 frame aggregate score in the final.
Broadcasts were twice weekly on BBC2 except the final which was on three times and the series started at 18:30 on Tuesday 5 July 1983. Alan Weeks presented the programme with Ted Lowe as commentator and with John Williams unavailable, Vic Bartlam took the role as referee.
