New Long Rests and Equipment

The new long equipment is in the club and ready for use. The long cues have a fine 10mm tip which will be great to use, Thanks to Empowering Eaglehawk and Michael from Sharp Snooker.

Stuart Bingham

Last Sunday night the club was treated to a visit by world number 7, and inaugural Goldfields Open winner Stuart Bingham. Stuart was more than happy not only to discuss snooker with the club members, but to also have 3 frames, playing Dave Worthington, Andrew Fairweather and Chris Elston. I must thank both Stuart and Colin Bell for the night, we were certainly fortunate to have people of such esteem in world snooker visit our club.

Ian Chappell

Last Sunday we were fortunate to Australian Cricket great Ian Chappell visit our club for a game. Mr Chappell enjoyed a game of snooker against club members Selwyn Henning and John Zhang, who enjoyed a game against a true ledgend of Australian sport.
