Snooker—known by different names—is a fun, fast-paced twist on traditional sporting clays. Shooters move through a sequence of eight throwers, each throwing a clay target worth different point values relative to their difficulty. Your goal? String together the highest-scoring “break” by hitting as many targets in order as you can.

Snooker Rules:

• There are two #1 throwers, on each side of the shooting platform. A #1 target needs to be broken before any other scoring target, so if you miss the first time, you have to take your second shot at the #1 target.
• The other 6 throwers are ranked in order of their difficulty, with the #7 clay being the hardest to hit, but worth the most points.
• All targets are report pairs.
• Two shooters face off, alternating turns as they shoot.
• In the first round, shooters will shoot 6 report pairs, getting gradually harder:
  • #1, #2
  • #1, #3
  • #1, #4
  • #1, #5
  • #1, #6
  • #1, #7
• At the end of the round, point totals are tallied and shooters switch position. The shooter with the higher score gets to go first in the second round consisting of four report pairs.
• For each pair in the second round, the shooters can decide what their second targets will be. They’ll still need to break a #1 target before taking a shot on the second target, but they want to rack up as many points as they can to win.
• In the second round, the #4 and #5 target can only be selected one time each for each shooter.
• After 10 pairs for each shooter, the shooter with highest final score wins.
• A perfect score in snooker is 65: ten #1 targets, one each of #2 to #7, then four #7 targets in the final round.
• The case of a tie, both shooters face off shooting a #1 Target and a #7 Target report pair. The winner is the first shooter who can outscore their opponent by 7 points.
