Hi

I am looking for someone who is interested in playing Snooker a few times a month. I would call myself an advanced beginner who is happy to get sometimes breaks over 20. Honestly I think my safety game is better..:-)

I am living in the Shirecliffe area and so the Hillsborough Snooker Center is not too far. But of course I could go somewhere else as well. Unfortunately I don't know many proper Snooker places so I am grateful for any suggestions.

I would prefer weekday evenings but I am quite flexible.

I am looking forward to any responses.

Best wishes, Bernhard

East Croydon is in South London. Don't know why they are offering to meet up to play Snooker in Sheffield!

Hi

I have become a fan of snooker in the last few years and tend to practice on weekends, im not very great but enjoy playing. Would anyone be interested to be a training partner? Maybe they could teach me a few tricks. I usually play snooker at Rileys snooker club on Mansfield road. I have brand new snooker cues of my own, so am willing to let people have them for training. Could sell if ayone was interested. Weekends are best for me to practice.

PM me if anyone is interested in meeting at Players in Ecclesfield for a game.. weekday evenings or weekends anytime really. Occasional 20/30 breaks standard.

In fact how about a team formed from Sheffield Forum and enter a league? I would be willing to organise/do administration etc.

Cheers

I'm ok, not bad - used to play in teams years ago but not played for a long time, just started playing again and am enjoying it more than I thought!
