Just further clarification in regards to the ruling / wording...

You have a maximum of 3 attempts from playing out of a snooker, a FOUL & MISS will be called for the first two attempts, After 3 unsuccessful attempts the non-offending player will have the choice of playing his shot from where the white has landed or asking his opponent to play again.

Again, hope this has erased any further confusion to what I thought was a simple ruling to follow...

Just to clarify after receiving messages from last night fixtures...

If you require snookers when coming to the table and you miss from trying to escape a snooker, or any ball 'on' this 'SHOULD NOT BE CALLED 'FOUL & MISS' as you already need snookers this shouldn't be called in any instance...

If after the 1st or 2nd attempt you miss and consequently therefore need snookers no 'FOUL & MISS' can be called as snookers are required..

Hope that helps with any confusion.

Thanks, Mark Ball
