Hugely popular, this triangle is as simple as it comes – but it does exactly the job it needs to. Suitable for 15 x 2 inch balls, it can also be used for pool if necessary. However, this is not for full-size, standard snooker. It is for the smaller sized balls you’d expect to find on a 8×4 table.

Gone from a 6ft table in my dad's garage as a kid to a 9ft table at the office, with the full-size snooker club visits in between. Hoping one day to get the playing technique right.
