Handicaps

Snooker’s not just about power plays—it’s about precision, patience, and making the game accessible to all skill levels. Our handicap system is designed to level the table, giving every competitor—from seasoned sharpshooters to rising talents—a fair shot at glory.

Unregistered Players

Snooker’s not just about power plays—it’s about precision, patience, and making the game accessible to all skill levels. Our handicap system is designed to level the table, giving every competitor—from seasoned sharpshooters to rising talents—a fair shot at glory.

  • If playing in another snooker league with handicaps, they must declare it.
  • Former registered players must declare and play off their previous handicap.
  • Must play off "scratch" until registered, unless declaring a lower handicap (e.g., Minus 10).
  • All new players must have a suggested handicap proposed by an existing member.
  • No new players can be registered after the halfway point in the season (typically XMAS).
  • A default handicap of +15 may be given if the ability is unknown.

Handicap Adjustments

  • All handicap adjustments will be presented for approval at each league meeting.
  • Any objections can only be raised during the appropriate league meeting to be discussed and approved by the League.
  • Any player who has played any game(s) since the last review, their handicap will be changed.
  • If a player wins, their handicap has a -1 applied to it.
  • If a player loses, their handicap has a +1 applied to it.
  • If the win/loss margin is ≥ 30 points, an additional ±1 is applied.
  • The minimum handicap is (Minus 70) and the maximum handicap is +35.
  • No adjustments will be made within the last 4 game weeks of the season, unless the League Committee deems an adjustment is required.
  • End of season handicap adjustments will be applied to the start of the following season.
