    Why get into snooker, billiards and pool?

    They are non-contact, indoor sports which can be played competitively or socially.

    Who is it for?

    Snooker, billiards & pool are skilful games that can be played by anyone, regardless of age, gender or ability.

    Is there a cheap option?

    Many clubs allow you to borrow equipment and membership fees can be inexpensive.

    Is it good for my health and wellbeing?

    Cue sports provide a fun and sociable way to stay active, improve your concentration and increase your strength and muscle control.

    Can I take it to another level?

    Once you've mastered the skills, you could enter local league matches and amateur level competitions across the country.

    Is there a disability option?

    Cue sports are very inclusive as the rules and equipment are the same for able-bodied and disabled players.

    Is there a family option?

    Many clubs welcome junior members. You can also play in teams and use a handicap scoring system.

    Snooker, billiards and pool all offer different challenges, but from pubs to clubs to competition, they offer an accessible option for anyone hoping to pick up a cue.

    It shouldn't be hard to find somewhere to hone your skills. What's more, an official snooker club finder was launched in 2018 to help you find the perfect place to play.
