  • Snooker World Championship – Hall of Fame
    aus: Hugo Kastner: SNOOKER – Spieler, Regeln & Rekorde Update: Mai 2012 Snooker World Championship – Hall of Fame Es begann 1927 … 1927 wurde die erste Weltmeisterschaft im Snooker in der Camkin’s Hall in Birmingham ausgetragen. Ein Vergleich mit heute ist schier unmöglich, wenngleich mit dem legendären Joe Davis nicht nur der Initiator des Turniers, sondern gleichzeitig der für die nächsten achtzehn Jahre unschlagbare Meister dieses Sports die Trophäe sowie ₤6 10s gewann. Snooker war noch kein Breitensport, die Tische, Kugeln und Queues nicht von der heutigen Qualität und die Weltmeisterschaft trotz aller Perfektion der Champions nur eine Randnotiz in den internationalen Gazetten. Der absolute Tiefpunkt wurde in den Fünfzigerjahren erreicht, als 1952 zwei Organisationen Weltmeisterschaftsturniere veranstalteten, die Billiard Association eine „offizielle“ mit sage und schreibe zwei (!) Teilnehmern. Zwischen 1952 und 1957 fanden mäßig beachtete Matchplay- Weltturniere statt, danach erlosch das Snookerleben auf WM-Niveau für einige Jahre vollkommen. Ab 1964 waren die unregelmäßig ausgetragenen Challenge-Turniere, die alle an den Titelverteidiger John Pulman gingen, die Krönung des bescheiden dahin dümpelnden Snookerjahres. Moderne Zeiten … Crucible Theatre … Erst mit Ende der Sechzigerjahre ging man zum Knockout-Format zurück, das bei den folgenden acht Turnieren mit John Spencer, Ray Reardon und Alex Higgins drei Allzeitgrößen der Snookergeschichte zu Titelehren führte. Ab dieser Zeit darf man vom modernen Snooker sprechen, wenngleich die meisten Snooker-Kommentatoren erst ab den Turnieren von 1976 den großen Durchbruch zum Massensport zu erkennen glauben. Nun waren die WM-Matches nicht mehr über die gesamte Saison verteilt, sondern wurden über circa zwei Wochen an einem Ort durchgeführt. Der Tabakkonzern Embassy übernahm damals das Sponsoring der World Championships, die ab dem folgenden Jahr 1977 allesamt im Crucible Theatre in Sheffield durchgeführt wurden.

  • Some Say That There Are Actually Four Players from Outside the U.K
    Some say that there are actually four players from outside the U.K. that have been World Champion citing Australian Horace Lindrum, a nephew of Walter, who won the title in 1952. This event was boycotted by all the British professional players that year and for this reason many in the sport will not credit him with the achievement. The other three to make the list are first, Cliff Thorburn from Canada in 1980, defeating Alex Higgins 18 frames to 16. He also made the first 147 maximum break of the World Championships in his 1983 second round match against Terry Griffiths which he won 13 – 12. Third was Neil Robertson who won a never to be forgotten final against Scot Graeme Dott 18 frames to 13 in 2010. His route to the final had started with a match against Fergal O’Brien which he won 10 – 5. Next up was a heart stopping, come from behind win over Martin Gould after trailing 0 – 6 and again 5 – 11 before getting over the line 13 – 12. Steve Davis, multiple World Champion, was next and dispatched 13 – 5 which brought him to the semi finals and a 17 – 12 victory over Ali (The Captain) Carter. Third here but really second on the list is Ken Doherty from Eire who won the World title by beating Stephen Hendry, multiple World Champion winner from Scotland, at the Crucible in 1997 winning 18 - 12. Ken had previously become the I.B.S.F. amateur World Champion in 1989 by defeating Jon Birch of England 11 frames to 2 in the final held in Singapore.

  • Exploring Aspects of Cognitive Development and Mental Health Awareness As Part of Health Promotional Goal in Snooker
    Exploring aspects of cognitive development and mental health awareness as part of health promotional goal in snooker Rohit Sagoo Anglia Ruskin University © 2017. Psychreg Journal of Psychology. ISSN: 2515-138X The aim of the present study is to ascertain whether playing snooker sustains development of mental cognition from acquiring and developing knowledge of the game of snooker for the ‘everyday snooker player’ that plays snooker as a hobby or pastime. A total of 1,352 participants has taken part in the Snooker Insight Survey and responded to a variety of questions that covered different aspects of snooker. This study investigated some of the theoretical concepts of cognitive development, mental concentration and other underpinning aspects of mental health in sport, with a view of looking specifically through the lens of ‘everyday snooker player’. Outcomes suggest that the game can be considered as a positive health promotional activity, which can also help to develop an individual knowledge, concentration and focus as an activity of living, as well as proposing that the game of snooker is being used as an encouraging and supportive activity that can potentially benefit an individual’s mental health and well-being. This work poses an opportunity for further research relating to health and snooker in the future, especially to explore a variety of dimensions associated with snooker from an array of topics that centre on a very broad and holistic scope around issues in health and social care needs of individuals and communities. Keywords: cognition, health promotion, mental health, snooker, snooker pedagogy Correspondence: [email protected] Psychreg Journal of Psychology • Volume 1, Number 2 • 2017 4 Rohit Sagoo BACKGROUND Snooker as a game was thought to have been created in 1875.

  • The Unhappy King of Snooker
    newyorker.com The Unhappy King of Snooker Sam Knight is a journalist living in London. MORE » O’Sullivan “sits over everyone,” an ex-manager said. “He is not a normal bloke.” Credit Photograph by Nadav Kander Early on a Tuesday morning last fall, Ronnie O’Sullivan was running through the woods near his home, in Chigwell, Essex, northeast of London. It was damp and muddy, England in November. O’Sullivan, who is thirty-nine, loves the anonymity of running. About ten years ago, he discovered that it was one thing that truly takes him out of himself—more than the drink and the drugs and the antidepressants—and suspends the otherwise unavoidable fact that he is the most talented snooker player of all time. At the age of eleven, O’Sullivan was making good money in the sport, and in the past three decades he has won five World Championships and set a number of records while enduring a bewildering odyssey of breakdowns, addictions, and redemptions, largely precipitated by the imprisonment of his father, whom he loves, for murder. O’Sullivan is frequently described as a genius. But he does not see how this can be so. Most days, he feels like a fraud. His game comes only in fits and starts. He wins because the others lose. He has wondered for a long time whether he would be happier doing something else. He has moved nine times in the past ten years. “I’m fucking, you know, searching,” he told me recently. “I kind of know who I am but I don’t like who I am, do you know what I mean? I wish I was a bit more fucking stable.” O’Sullivan tries to run six or seven miles a day.

  • February 2021
    Published February 2021 LIFE, LOVE & MEMORIES PUBLISHED BY AGE UK OLDHAM DOES ANYONE REMEMBER GOING TO SEE THE SHOW WITH THE ELEPHANT? Following on from the article about the theatres of Oldham in last month’s issue: When one of our readers was younger she remembers going to a theatre in Oldham, she isn’t sure which one but it could have been the Empire. It was a circus type show featuring an elephant and at a previous performance the elephant had gone through the stage. The weight of the animal must have caused the stage to collapse. (This was in the days before Health and Safety and Risk Assessments). The show that they went to see was after this had happened and so that the people wouldn’t miss out on seeing it when they were leaving the theatre the elephant was stood outside with its trainer. This is the story of how Dorothy was involved in Life Story but due to family circumstances had to leave us in 2018. During her time with us she was always extremely helpful using her skills gained whilst working part time as an office skills tutor for 25 years at a local college. We are always pleased to see her on her occasional visits to the office. Written by Dorothy Carr 30 March 2015 I have been a volunteer on the Life Story Project for over two years now. My involvement came about through the connection of my daughter, Angela, who works for Oldham MBC, and her liaison with Nicola, the Project Manager for Life Story.
