Event 1, Round 1

Full match stats from Gaz Allen’s first round match. At 16s per shot, he doesn’t really hang about, does he?! Continue reading →

Playing in Q School? Want your talents introduced to the rest of the snooker world? Get on to our Facebook page and tell us a bit about yourselves. You can play it funny or straight, or even tell us stories about your opponents or rivals in the event – all snookery banter gratefully received and we can add you below. Meanwhile, here are a few profiles we made up earlier. If this was a reality TV show, this is the point at which they’d tell you that this list is in no particular order. Continue reading →

If you’re playing in Q School, we would love to introduce you and your talents to the rest of the snooker world. Let’s face it, three months from now, they’ll be hearing all about you, after you qualify through to the Main Tour. This is just a chance to pick up a few fans before the inevitable fame and fortune are foisted upon you! Continue reading →

If you’re playing in the Q School 2012 and you want your match stats featured on our pages, in full technicolor, here’s what you need to do before the events begin:

1. Sign up for your free account on our site
2. Download our free iPhone app or Android app (or follow your emailed instructions for other phones)
3. Register your app to your account so that you can upload matches (your individual UserID and passcode will be emailed to you when you sign up)
4. Go into the app’s Settings page and choose Professional Mode so that all your stats are recorded.

Now for the hard bit: find a willing spectator who can record the whole of your match. You’ll need to find someone you can trust to tell the difference between a pot, a long pot and a safety shot, which might be harder than you’d imagine! (What’s a long pot?! Best to tell them that it’s any pot where the cue ball and object ball are more than about six feet apart…)

At the end of the match, choose Menu->End Match and click Upload to upload all the details straight into our database. Let us know when you’ve uploaded – tweet us or facebook us – and we’ll make sure you are included in our round-up. Who knows? Some of you could be entertaining us at venues like the Crucible in the future! Good luck!

This new feature, for our Premium Subscribers only, will tell you how the standard of your performance varies over every session of snooker you’ve played. Your last three months of performances are in red, the three months prior to that in yellow, and all the older stuff in green. Armed with this information, you’ll have a clearer understanding of the highs and lows of your game, and put each new match performance in better context. Continue reading →

Just returned from the inaugural South West Snooker Academy Team Festival, having had an excellent long weekend. A fine effort from the organizers and officials somehow enabled them to orchestrate several different competitions involving about 100 players across just 13 tables in three days. Continue reading →

As the date approaches for the 5-man team event at SWSA, Gloucester, we’re delighted to announce the line-up for Team MySnookerStats. We’ve gone for a blend of youth and (life) experience. You may detect that one of the profile pics below was taken decades ago… Continue reading →

Was pleased the other night to discover that one of our subscribers had uploaded the MySnookerStats from the Yorkshire County final between Wayne Cooper and David Grace, pitting Bradford versus Leeds. This was to be Grace’s final act as an amateur following his successful promotion (back) to the professional ranks through the recent Q School, but he was up against a strong opponent in Cooper, himself a three-times winner of this county title.
