RIBSA held a free Snooker Coaching Cue Zone in Darcy McGees Snooker Club in the Spawell Dublin on Saturday the 28th of September as part of the 2019, European Week of Sport in Ireland.

The players received a copy of a Technique booklets covering the Stance, Grip, Cue Action, Address, Using the rest. RIBSA would like to thank Shane Mason, Darcy McGees SC and Ritchie McAulley for holding the cue zone as it was a big success on the day.

European Week of Sport aims to promote sport and physical activity across Europe. The week is for everyone, regardless of age, background or fitness level. With a focus on grassroots initiatives, the aim is to inspire Europeans to #BeActive on a regular basis and create opportunities in peoples’ everyday lives to exercise more.

Being Active doesn’t mean having to be part of a sports club, a gym, running marathons or cycling across Europe. Being Active can be running around playing with your children, grabbing a walk with work colleagues on your lunch break, going outside and exploring the great outdoors – whatever gets you moving to lead a healthier and more active lifestyle.

Being Active leads to;

  • An increase in health benefits
  • Better mental health
  • Feeling great
  • Confidence

RIBSA would like to thank all the players for attending the Cue Zone and we hope everyone enjoyed the day.
