del hill vs. snooker academy

[vucko117]

If you have enough money... What would you choose? To go on del hill's snooker farm or you would rather go to Sheffield's snooker academy? Which one is better?

[MattCash]

i would go to del's snooker farm. It seems so much more personal instead of group sessions. Del's a top bloke also

The snooker farm without second thoughts :snooker:

[checkSide]

Have you been there scoo??

And what was it like?

[Oldgit]

I have done both although my visit to the academy was back in the days when it was at Northamptonshire. Both days were excellent but I agree with 'Scoo' that Del Hill is the perfect choice. My day with Del was not only great 'one to one' tuition but Del is a genuinly nice guy and I could have listened to his snooker stories for days!!

ive been to the academy,i guess practising with the pros helps,and del hill comes over to the academy quite regularly

Have you seen The pics of the snooker farm??? You can play snooker all day and then fish all afternoon. If i had the money that is like my perfect holiday!

I take it it's expensive then to go to this snooker farm, how does it work? Can you go on like courses for a few weeks, or do you pay day by day?

There's pretty much info on his website, you can have a look And choose what suits you best. http://thesnookerfarm.com/

Very expensive. http://delcoachessnooker.com/default.aspx
40 pound an hour coaching. 100 pound a day to stay, 500 a week. But I'd really love to go there.

[RGCirencester]

You beat me to it April!!! Strange we posted different links to the same place!

No, I haven't but my mate has been and told me it was the best experience of his snooker life. It showed on the table, too :snooker:
From what he says, it sounded like the perfect blend of snooker practice and leisure activities

[RGCirencester]

Its expensive but i would say probably money well spent if you can afford it. Looksw like a lovely fishing lake!

[Reycerb]

I suppose that does sound quite expensive, but if it's something you really fancy doing and manage to fit in around work and whatever else, i say go for it. I'm definitely thinking about going there.

so Del's farm is better option? I thought that one too..
