For comparison purposes a full size snooker table is 12 ft by 6 ft with 2 1/16 inch
diameter balls and cues of around 48” in length. But, whether you’re a snooker/pool
expert or not, these smaller cue games present fresh challenges with their own individual
characteristics -

Table Top (Host provided) |
|
Victorian Folding Bagatelle (Wooden bed) Format - Dimensions - Balls - Supporting Table supplied
Play each cue ball (4 whites and 4 reds) from baulk to pot other live balls into recessed cups. Cups score from 1 to 9. On each shot the black ball (double points) must be hit first unless already potted. |

Custom Tables - |
|
Petanque de Table (France) (Melamine bed) NB - Format - Dimensions - Balls - Supporting Table supplied
Play to land nearest to the smaller pink 'cochonnet' (jack). The player who is the least nearest is always the next to play. Balls knocked into the ditch are subject to penalty. |
|
Billiard Target Board (Melamine bed) NB - Format - Dimensions - Balls - Supporting Table supplied
Balls can be potted off the cushion or off each other to land in the scoring holes of the inclined board. Accumulate a score to beat your opponent. |

Toque d’Or
Format – 2, 3 or 4 player Singles. Pairs Dimensions - Requires tabletop (or on trestles supplied)
6 discs per player are slid down the board by means of a cue. The aim is to place your own discs in favourable positions whilst ruining your opponent’s position (discs can end up in the gutter surrounding the board surface). After each player has played all their discs, points are scored for those discs remaining on the board or lying in the scoring circles around the pins. Bonus points for the disc nearest to the top pin. |

¾ Bar Billiards (Hardboard bed) Format - Dimensions - Balls - Requires Table Top
Play each ball from the 'D' at the trough end of the table. Pot the balls in the holes to score points. Red ball counts double. Knock over a white skittle and lose your break score. Knock over a black one and reset your score to zero. |

Edwardian Folding Bagatelle (Wooden Bed) NB - Format - Dimensions - Balls - Requires Table Top
Exactly the same as the Victorian Bagatelle but on a slightly smaller table and slightly larger balls and cups. |
|
Mississippi (Wooden Bed) NB - Format - Dimensions - Balls - Requires Table Top
Spot the black near the arches and spot a red in baulk to start. Each ball played from baulk must first hit a cushion and then another ball before it (or another ball) can score by passing fully through the numbered arches. Black counts double. |
|
Billiartelle Format – 2 player Singles. Pairs Dimensions – 42” x 13” (requires table top)
This vintage cueing game provides yet another unique playing experience. The unusual layout requires balls to make use of the central stump to rebound into favourable positions. Once the technique is discovered then tactical playing and scoring of balls becomes possible. |
|
Cue 147 Format – 2 player Singles. Pairs An unusual cueing game that emulates the game of snooker. Use your cue to send the cue ball up the ramp to land in either red or colour. Penalty points for ball missed or incorrect ball potted. Make breaks just as in the game of snooker. |
