Snooker rules and technique handbook, offline

Settle a rules argument at the table, or read up on ball control between frames, without hunting through search results in a club with no signal.

The official rule book

The rule book is in the app in full: equipment, definitions, the game itself, the players and the officials. When a dispute comes up mid-frame, the answer is two taps away instead of an argument.

The technique handbook

Alongside the rules sits a coaching reference covering:

  • Equipment and technique fundamentals
  • Ball control
  • Advanced tactical play
  • Common shot types
  • Practice drills
  • The mental game
  • Pro-level insights
  • Common faults

Built for reading at a table

Chapters and sections expand and collapse, so navigating a long reference book does not mean endless scrolling — and the whole handbook works with no internet connection, which matters in clubs where signal does not reach the back tables.

One honest note. The handbook has an “Ask AI Assistant” button that currently shows a “Coming soon” message. There is no AI assistant in the app yet, and we would rather say so here than have you find out after downloading.
