This free 2-hour class (plus game time after the class) hosted by In The Pocket Snooker Club in Rochester, Washington, is exclusively for the friends of Angela Carlson and is designed to introduce the beginning player, who may or may not have any experience playing snooker or pool, to the sport of snooker. If you have ever been interested in learning a new sport, then snooker may be just for you. Although this is not an all-inclusive orientation to the sport, it will give the beginning player a basic understanding of the game and how to play.
In this class, we will cover the basics of game concept, strategy, rules, cueing, bridging, understanding potting angles, introduction to drills and game play. All cues, bridges and tables are provided but you are welcome to bring your own cue.
Drills we will practice:
- Potting in side pocket.
- Stopping the cue ball while potting in side pocket.
- Screw back to opposite side pocket.
- Top spin forward to same side pocket.
- Pocketing blue ball with slight angle (using red line balls for lining each cue position – up to 2 red balls on each side of the cue ball).
- 2 Red & Blue Ball mini match. Maximum 7 points.
- Practice Match Play after class (no time limit on match play).
I have included a Back to Basics video from BartonSnooker that you can review and perhaps practice prior to the class.
