Today I have been over to one of our regular clients whose table I have recovered around three times now. My client has recently passed his coaching course and is awaiting DBS clearance to work with young snooker players to coach them to a higher level of play.
In readiness to coach these younger players, it was recommended to him that to keep them interested in the game, they should play on a table with wider pocket openings. As our client has his own personal table, he decided to widen the pocket openings from match play 3.5 inches (as seen on TV) to 3 3/4 inches, a 1/4 of an inch wider.
The pocket opening after the alteration is now 3 3/4 inches at the drop of the slate fall.
We will keep you informed about our client’s new venture, and if any young person, male or female, wishes to have a personal snooker coach, then our client has the facility to coach one-on-one or to small groups of 2 to 4 persons.
The excellent Riley Aristocrat snooker table in light oak is now ready for coaching, having just undergone pocket widening and the fitting of a brand new Strachan 6811 Tournament 30 oz all wool cloth. The room is fully heated and the table plays very fast and true. It also benefits from pro-style lighting and Aramith Pro 1G snooker balls.
