Something to get ready for

Snooker has been a bit slow this past month. I said i'd play snooker almost everyday to practice and get some form going. However finances have been slow and Uni work has been coming thick and fast, with only around a month to go tho!

I played today (my second match in a month) and well, lost it 3-2! i am quite shit and throw it away all the time. I know i need to sort my mentality out and concentration is at an all time low, not just at the table too, which is quite worrying, with my snooker and uni work suffering.

I found out a league at my club started last week, i must have missed the notices but a worker their is going to ask if i can get into the league this time around, fingers crossed! i'm going to practice at home some more to save cash, as soon as my new tip dries.

Quick Update

Not much on the snooker front at the back end of march, university and job seeking has taken a forefront in life! along with friends being back from uni i've not even played any pool!

I made an impressive and nerve wracking 54 break in snooker the week after my last post, but have not had a match since mid march, maybe tomorrow i'll sort a game.

So i've improved my best break, by 22, and had the odd practice match. Now easter is here i intend to try and play everyday be it practice or a match, subject to any work that needs doing or any hangovers that may come my way (had a few belters this past week!)

The good think with my snooker at the moment is that i've reached a standard where whenever i leave the club i can be happy with the level i'm at. Hopefully a game this week should confirm my ability and if i can hit, say, two 20 breaks in my next match i'll be happy. A win too would be nice.
