How to work with the practice system
The PAT Snooker Practise System
The practice system should become an integral part of your practice. It is more than just a testing system.
Novice players should seek the help of a coach and start doing the exercises, using the practice system as a guideline throughout their practice. Exercises and games can be selected by the players or in co-ordination with the coach. The same applies for goal determination.
Regular practice under the guidance of a licensed PAT snooker coach will help you increase your per-formance faster.
The PAT practice system should not be applied un-til all exercises have been completed once – thus it constitutes a first performance review on the basis of which the next few practice steps can be deter-mined.
Experienced players base their practice on the com-plete PAT package – the main focus of their practice
materializes automatically: players concentrate on those exercises that produced the least satisfactory results (the fewest points).
Taking the test before starting your practice (this op-tion is also open to absolute beginners) will help you understand the structure and particularities of the exercises – and enhance your understanding of the importance of individual exercises.
However, official tests should not be taken more fre-quently than every three months within one ability level.
Depending on how much time you have for prac-tice, you should establish 3-month targets (prac-tice schedule), e.g. a 50% increase of your results. You can now pursue these targets, for instance, un-til you have reached the desired results three times in a row (however, at least 80% of results stipulated by PAT).
