This is our first Snooker Shootout event at Westward Ho! Snooker Club. This special fundraising event will help our club finish the refurbishment works we have been undertaking over this summer.
The club is going from strength to strength, and with the support of our members, it will continue to flourish. This tournament represents an opportunity to prove your snooker speed prowess in a fun-filled, fast paced competition. If you've never experienced snooker this way, you surely should.
* Prize money subject to change if we fall short on entrants. This will be announced before the day of the competition.
