Oh and That's a Bad Miss… UK Snooker Arrives in York | Nouse Nouse Web Archives Oh and that’s a bad miss… UK Snooker arrives in York Page 1 of 3 News Comment MUSE. Politics Business Science Sport Roses Freshers Sport › News & Features Comment Varsity Roses College Cup Fantasy Football Oh and that’s a bad miss… UK Snooker arrives in York By Andrew Derlien Thursday 1 December 2011 Reigning world champion John Higgins held an open session at York’s ‘Cueball Club’ last week, inviting challengers to take him on in a frame with the promise of a drink for everyone in the room if he could be defeated. Surprisingly, I lost. It was just as well for the Scot too, as there were well over a hundred of us packed into the dingy basement snooker hall. Such is the popularity of the sport today- and with this year’s UK Championship to be held at the Barbican Centre in December, interest is surely set to grow in York, if only for a fortnight. While the presence of poster boys Willie Thorne and Steve Davis is sure to set female hearts racing, some of snooker’s younger stars will be looking to make their big break at the event, and emerge with the most prestigious trophy in the sport bar Sheffield’s World Championship. World number one Mark Selby, the Jester from Leicester, will be in with a great chance, as will China’s 24-year-old darling Ding Junhui. Judd Trump will surely be at the head of the charge for glory though. Just as he did so superbly on route to the World Championship final in April, the 22-year-old is set to bewilder fans at the Barbican with his trademark attacking style of play and bold long-pot attempts. Trump is certainly in a focused and determined mood, confidently proclaiming on his twitter account this week “Jack Daniels sauce. Delicious”. But can Trump and the other young pretenders usurp Higgins and the veterans? 36-year-old Mark Williams was last year’s runner-up, and is enjoying some of the best snooker of his career after returning to second position in the world rankings. Dropping out of the elite top sixteen in 2008 would have buried many careers on the baize, but the Welshman’s rejuvenated form means he has a fighting chance of entering 2012 as UK champion. It would also take a brave man to write off Ronnie O’Sullivan, even at 35 years old- just ask the hapless Mick Price, one of many victims to have sat slumped in his seat, watching the legend race through a maximum 147 break. Rocket Ronnie’s time on that occasion in 1997? A little over five minutes, an astonishing record that nobody has come even close to since. Price is now a student careers advisor in Kenilworth, by the way. He doesn’t normally recommend snooker. http://nouse.co.uk/2011/12/01/oh-and-thats-a-bad-miss-uk-snooker-arrives-in- Archived 11 Dec 2018 york 02:36:04 Nouse Web Archives Oh and that’s a bad miss… UK Snooker arrives in York Page 2 of 3 Whoever takes the £100,000 prize money that comes with the title would be able to buy 20,000 students tickets for first-round matches at the Barbican Centre. That’s right maths fans- student admission has been set at a bargain price of £5, in a generous bid to attract younger fans. Not interested in snooker? Put off by its tag as a ‘Dad sport’? Well put down your Panini, pour the Costa down the drain. Stuart Bingham versus Marco Fu is a much more sensible way to spend a fiver this week. Give snooker a try. Go on, I dare you. One comment JC 12 Dec ’11 at 7:23 pm A superb tournament, and whatever Mark Allen thinks the change in format was vindicated by big, enthusiastic crowds throughout the week. The tournament would never have left York were it not for the awful state that the Barbican got itself into – great to see it back in action too. And nice prediction! Report Most Read Discussed 1.

  • 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.

  • World Snooker Championship 2019 FAQ
    World Snooker Championship 2019 FAQ Written by Warren Pilkington, 9th April 2019. Will be updated as the tournament progresses where possible. Tournament What is the World Snooker Championship? The World Snooker Championship traditionally takes place in April and early May over a 17 day period with the final day being on the May Bank Holiday Monday. This year’s tournament starts Saturday 20th April and finishes Monday 6th May 2019. Who is the defending champion? Mark Williams is the defending champion, who defeated John Higgins 18-16. He infamously did his press conference naked, honouring a bet he made during the tournament. Where is the tournament held? The tournament is held at the Crucible Theatre in Sheffield, and has been since 1977. It is often referred to as “the home of snooker” by fans, commentators and players alike. This year it’s the 43rd consecutive time it's been held there. Why The Crucible Theatre? When promoter Mike Watterson’s wife saw a play at this intimate theatre in the round, she recommended it to him as an ideal venue. The closeness of the crowd to the stage (notably with two tables) and the 980 seated capacity gives it that special aura. Mike Watterson has passed away as of 2019, but his legacy is that the tournament found its spiritual home. What is the Crucible Curse? Since the World Championship has been held at the Crucible Theatre, no first time World Champion has gone on to win the championship the following year. This is known as the Crucible Curse. The closest anyone has come to breaking the Curse was Joe Johnson, who after winning in 1986 against Steve Davis lost to Steve Davis in the 1987 final 18-14.
