Taom Chalk ends up being a damn good fashion statement. Not only is it damn good chalk to use on the table with less mess, limited kicks, and lasts longer…it looks damn good on hats and jumpers and tees… Taom chalk is like the Saphir shoe polish of the shoeshine world. Top notch. Give your […]

Why the Right Club Player Can Sometimes Be Your Best “Coach” when You Can’t get to a “Badged Coach”… There’s a common line in snooker circles: don’t pay too much attention to advice from ordinary club players – and that can sometimes be true. The thinking is understandable. Too much conflicting input can confuse technique, […]

Bit of fun for a Friday today… Here’s 3 songs that could relate to snooker in some way… Go on, have a quick boogie…They are my go to’s as well as others… Santana is one of the best guitarists around, and, this song, SMOOTH, might relate to the cue action. When everything feels in sync […]

Why Single-Dish Food Venues Could Be the Future for Smaller Snooker Clubs… Le Relais de Venise L’Entrecôte in London is a simple idea based on the concept of one dish menus in the restaurant scene.

Creamy Tikka Masala Tortelloni with Sweetcorn (And Red or Green Chillies or Chilli Flakes) (Quick Recipe) This, like a sausage curry is another quick Winter warmer I love which combines Italy and India in one serving… A twist on the mundane pasta with tomato sauce – a hint of the exotic and the med combined… […]

Training With Intention: Practice Frame Methods That Actually Improve Your Game… At the club recently, I saw something simple but powerful during a practice frame. One player decided he would focus purely on safety — every shot was about containment, cue-ball distance, and tactical pressure. No potting unless forced. I decided to do the opposite. […]

This club in this video are on the right road with introducing the cue ball in hand. This website backs the rule. It would speed up frames. Make less hassle for having balls replaced and potential arguments happening at amateur level where the balls were – as the amateur game doesn’t have the fancy equipment […]

This was a shot I played yesterday that was another remarkable shot – one of a few but a highlight of yesterday’s practice frames at Oxshott. These are particularly difficult pots – but extremely rewarding when you get them. In some cases, potting VERY difficult balls in a frame can be as rewarding as breaks […]
