Snooker tactics board?

[jedicho]

Hi everyone, was just wondering if anyone knows of such a thing as a snooker tactics/coaching board - if you look at this basketball one you'll know what I mean:

I would use such an item for snooker quite alot, I often try to explain a certain shot I made to people but this would make it alot easier,positioning the balls how they were on a a magnetic board. Also it would be a good coaching aid - coaches could set up a situation and ask players what they would try to do or could put three possible cueball positions for the next shot and ask which would be the best to carry on the break. Maybe I am getting out of my tree about this but it'd be a very handy thing to carry around,if it was fairly small.

I am and have been a fully qualified coach for many years and i do think this sort of board would be a good idea, i would buy one if one were available. so if anyone knows of any let me know. i do use a similar system but it involves using a notepad and drawings, this would be better and easier. good link Jedicho.

Sorry to bring up an old thread but after posting about the lack of this type of product, I am pleased to say I have (fairly amateurishly) attempted to make my own such item.

Very good idea!

But the white could'v been closer to the cushion!

Well they are all magnets so I could just move the cueball into a safer position :snooker:
