POCKET BUllARDS: IS IT A GAME OR A SPORT?

Anyone can play pocket billiards - all you need is concentration, an eye and coordination. Throw in a little style and a lot of practice, and you can become a first- rate pool player! It's a sport as well as a game, but it doesn't take physical training or stamina. Sports like basketball and football require training or stamina and physical prowess. Not so with billiards, and you can play pocket billiards all your life! As in any sport, pocket billiards has its serious, hard-core players. Then there are the rest of us, the recreational players. They both have different needs, and CLICKS tries to appeal to both. For example, CLICKS has special championship-quality 9-foot Brunswick Gold Crown tables for the pros. Amateurs will still get a workout on the beautiful 8-foot Brunswick tables. Pool, unlike some other sports, is not intimidating for the beginner. Remember the first time you stepped up to the tee on a golf course? Did your ball go in the trees, the sand, or the water? It's hard to lose a ball when you're playing pool. So, if you're a connoisseur of the sport, an occasional player, or if you want to start from £S^ "scratch", head toward your ) 1992 HORIZON'S PUBLISHING ^y nearest CLICKS! P O. BOX 2767, STUART.
