The Whirlwind Blows Into Fast and Furious Snooker's
Marcel Eckardt might not be a name you are familiar with, in snooker. 21 year old Marcel is part of the new breed of referees. “This interview is the first I have done; I am a little bit excited.”At 21 Mar- cel describes himself as organised, helpful and friendly all good qualities doe a referee. How did the German born ref get into snooker? “I was 13 I think, I watched it on telly and found it interesting. I never got the chance to play snooker growing up as there were no tables near where I lived. Snooker and Pool aren’t popular in my region but I want to do my best to change that. “I love to play but you can’t be a player and a referee, so my solution to this was play pool. I started at 19 far too late to reach anything, but I’m not bad at it. It helps me learn more to improve my skills as a referee as well.” Snooker is seeing a change, with new players and recently a large intake of young referee’s, what interests young people in the game? “I think snooker is the perfect alternative for young people. Not everyone follows the crowd and favours team sports. Skills like concentration, tactic but also mental strength are important for snooker.” “Refereeing the final on PHC was exciting but, I had spent the day before feeling really ill, I felt confident and very proud to be given the opportunity. I would next like to referee the World Championship final, that’s the dream.” Referee’s in all sports face a lot of stick from fans, but it seems snooker fans are more respectful.
