It was understood that Sippy, who was in his 60s, died following a massive heart attack.
A senior office-bearer of the BSAM said Sippy, after his active days as a billiards player, served the cue sport in the capacity as an administrator and also as a coach.
He is survived by his wife.
Sippy served the BSAM in various capacities and was its secretary for several years, the office-bearer added.
He was the Indian team's coach at recently concluded Asian Under-21 Boys Snooker and Asian Women Snooker tournament in Chandigarh.
Condoling Sippy's demise, BSAM president and ace cueist Yasim Merchant said the cue sports fraternity has lost a person who served the game with utmost dedication.
