Question

Does anyone know where to get personal trainer (Snooker) ?

Answer 1

I have never heard of a personal Billiard trainer, but Im sure it is not hard to find one. Just hang around a billiard hall or establishment and get to know some people or real good players. Then just ask. If that doesnt happen I recommend buying a DVD. Or just learn the game and practice,  practice, practice. You will get better in time grasshopper.

I'm glad to hear that you are looking into formal instruction.  I teach pool, but unfortunately not snooker.  I know for a fact that there are many qualified pool instructors available, so it would seem very likely that you shouldn't have too much trouble finding a reputable snooker instructor.  I would probably find out what are the main governing bodies for snooker and visit their websites.  They usually will have a contact page.  I don't know if you are in the UK, but the BCA (Billiards Congress of America) does have a few pool instructors in the UK.  There's a good chance that one of them are also familiar with teaching snooker or perhaps knows of someone who could teach you.  Check out that website as well.  Best of luck in your search, and hats off to you for seeking out lessons.  It'll do more for your game than any book or DVD.  M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.

There are definately snooker coaches out there. I've had a coach for the last year or so and it has done wonders for my game. He is registered as a coach through the snooker association in my state, so as straight_shooter mentioned, you would be best to get in touch with your nearest association, or ask around where you play.
