In
much the same way as golf, snooker demands high standards
of etiquette and behaviour from all players, at all levels,
at all times. This applies in the same way to a local league
match as it does to a big game in a professional tournament.
Matchplay
-
Shake hands with an opponent at the start and end of a match
-
Shake hands with the referee at the start and end of a match
-
Declare all your own fouls, at all times
-
Do not stand in line of an opponents shot
-
Do not volunteer remarks about an opponents luck whilst
a match is in progress
-
Do not complain about playing conditions whilst a match
is in progress
-
Do not strike matches or lighters, and try to avoid coughing
whilst your opponent is at the table
- Do
not concede a frame or match when you have missed a shot
or whilst your opponent is still at the table. Wait for
your opponent to finish their visit before conceding.
-
Do not argue with the referee or your opponent.
Standards
of behaviour are also just as important when practising in
the snooker centre.
Practise
- Respect
other players and keep noise to a minimum
-
Do not walk past another table whilst someone is playing
a shot
- Never
interfere in someone else's match unless asked to do so
- Respect
equipment and leave the table as you would hope to find
it
- Do
not smoke or spin coins over the table.
