This week our National Coach PJ Nolan held a Snooker Coaching Zone in The New Institute Snooker Club in Nenagh County Tipperary. Among the players whom attended varied from former Irish Junior International Players to new up and coming Juniors to experienced club players who represented their club in Killarney this year.
Patsy Farrell is the main reason the junior game is booming in Nenagh in building up a team of juniors who are eager to learn and are focused on in competing in R.I.B.S.A. events over the next few years. Patsy had organised this day to train his players who included Emily Talbot who has the passion and dedication to become a top lady player in the next coming years.
The snooker room in Nenagh contains five beautiful match snooker tables with a great atmosphere that is steeped in tradition so much so that the club has produced a number of champions over the years including the current number 1 player David Hogan who made a 147 in the recent ranking event plus also the winner of the last two ranking events Brendan O’ Donoghue who was on hand throughout the coaching zone in helping the players with their training.
PJ used his laser to get the players on the line of aim and the players practiced with his 360 cue in perfecting their cue delivery. The 360 cue is the best coaching aid on the market which has a spring in the butt of the cue and the key is to help players develop a smooth delivery without the spring bending.
The members also practiced PJ’s training routines and Patsy Farrell was impressed with the quality of the coaching on the day and said the players really enjoyed the Cue Zone and they learnt new tips on improving their game more. If any player or club would like to like to book a coaching session with PJ Nolan who is one of the world’s leading coaches they should email pjcoach147@hotmail.com for his next available date.
