Preface by Thomas Hein

Performance diagnostics is as indispensable in snooker as it is in any other sport for the assess-ment of ability and identification of deficits, with the final aim to optimize your practice systematically and individually.

This book is aimed at opening up to all aspiring snooker players the possibilities of performance di-agnostics that so far have been restricted to profes-sional players.

Every snooker player can use PAT Snooker to iden-tify his or her playing abilities, regardless of their skill level, and can adapt the practice focus to the needs identified. The coach is able to identify both potential and deficits and can structure the practice schedule accordingly.

However, PAT Snooker is more than a mere instru-ment of performance diagnostics.

This book contains a collection of exercises previ-ously unknown in this format and scope that pro-vide each player with valuable input for a structured and systematic practice programme. Especially be-ginners often find themselves in this situation: you are alone at the table, you’re highly motivated and would like to practice. But how should you practice - and what? Distributing the balls across the table and striking a few shots might be a good idea for a start. However, only clearly structured and targeted exercises will produce measurable results.

PAT Snooker contains a comprehensive collection of exercises with defined targets and technical re-quirements.

Many years of active snooker – both as national coach and as player – have made it very clear to me that this is the most effective way to systematically improve your playing ability. This book is intended to pass on some of my experience.
