We want your games room to be as epic and smooth playing as your dreams, and we stock everything you need to accompany your pool or snooker table to achieve this.
From the best cues money can buy all the way down to coloured chalk, we offer the largest selection of pool table accessories in the country. You can even pop down to our Bristol showrooms to see any piece up close before you buy.
Our award-winning team have a wealth of experience and really know their stuff when it comes to pool table accessories. We can advise you on everything you will need to maintain and care for your table, the best cues and rests with which to play, and the most appropriate ball sets to use for your style of pool. While the table is obviously the most important part of a game of pool, your accessories can make all the difference to your game and are also extremely important.
Pool Cues
We have a huge range of pool cues to choose from, so regardless of your playing standard we have a cue that will suit your needs. We supply cues with every pool table so that you’re ready to get started, but once you start taking the game more seriously, you’ll want to upgrade to a cue that meets your needs and matches your playing style.
Choosing the right cue for the type of cue sport you are playing is essential. If you are playing 8-ball pool - which is typical for a pub pool table - or at home on an English pool table, then you will need one of our English 8-ball cues. If you are playing on an American pool table, which has larger pockets and uses larger balls, then our range of American pool cues will certainly have you covered. Lastly, if you are playing snooker then you’re bound to find the right cue for you in our snooker cues section.
Pool Table Cloth
We are proud to stock the largest range of pool table cloth in the UK, so whether you are looking for a colour pool table cloth or a logo pool table cloth we will have what you need. If you want something more unusual we can also offer a huge variety of pattern pool table cloth. For a truly unique pool table we can design a bespoke pool table cloth to your exact requirements. If you want your company logo, a photograph or a particular design, we can apply it to a high-quality cloth using state of the art printing techniques. This option is available on both English pool tables and American pool tables.
Pool Balls
A good set of pool balls is essential for a proper game, so we stock everything you’ll need, whether you’re looking for a replacement cue ball or a complete set of high-quality balls. We stock 2" English pool and 2 1/4" American pool sizes, as well as ball cleaners, ball trays and more.
Snooker Balls
A full game of snooker requires a set of 15 red snooker balls (in addition to the colours) while a smaller snooker table will require 10 reds, and we offer sets with either according to your needs. We stock snooker balls in standard size, which is 2 1/16”, as well as the smaller 2” balls for playing on an English pool table and the larger 2 1/4” balls for American pool tables with their larger pockets.
Pool Table Covers
To keep your table protected, our selection of pool table covers will help you to maintain your cloth and frame in perfect condition. A good cover is important to keep dust and other impurities from settling on your table between games, and also to protect it from sunlight. We stock covers for 6ft pool tables, 7ft pool tables, 8ft pool tables, 9ft pool tables, or 10ft and 12ft snooker table sizes. We can supply anything from basic PVC covers up to thicker leather-style pool table covers.
Snooker Scoreboards
In a game of snooker, keeping score is obviously very important. We have a selection of snooker scoreboards to choose from, whether you need a two-player marking board for small tables or a beautiful four-player oak scoreboard. We also stock scoreboard lights to keep your score illuminated when the rest of the room may be dark to keep focus on your game.
Cue Cases
We have a huge range of cue cases to choose from, whether you need a soft cue case or a hard cue case. Cues come in a variety of configurations, including two-piece, one-piece and three quarter-jointed. Whichever cue you use, we’ll have a cue case to fit your needs.
Cue Racks
A cue rack is essential for keeping your cues both organised and protected between games. We offer a great range of cue racks, including wall-mounted cue racks and floor standing cue racks. For simple storage, a two-piece clip rack will keep your cues in good condition, but we also offer deluxe wall racks that serve not only as storage but as attractive accessories for your games room.
Cue Rests
When playing snooker, cue rests are essential due to the sheer size of the playing area. A long shot may be six feet or more away from you, so a rest will be required to even reach the cue ball. Rests are less required when playing pool, but some shots can still be hard to reach, especially for smaller players. We stock a variety of shaft lengths and rest heads, to cover all eventualities.
Cue Tips
Good quality cue tips can make all the difference to your game, as they determine the quality of the impact between cue and ball. A good cue tip will give you better cue ball control across all your shots. Our selection of cue tips will fit all cues and give you the control you need in any cue sport.
Cue Chalk
The importance of cue chalk is sometimes underestimated, but it ensures a good quality connection between tip and ball, meaning decent cue chalk is extremely important. We stock a variety of brands and colours so that you can get your preferred chalk.
Triangles
We supply all of our pool and snooker tables with a triangle, but if you need a new triangle, or prefer one made from any of a variety of types of wood, we will have one to suit your needs. We stock a great range of triangles and diamonds for 8-ball pool, 9-ball or snooker.
Pool Table Lighting
Your choice of pool table lighting to illuminate your table will enhance your playing standard as well as making your setup look more attractive. We stock overhead pool table lighting with traditional individual bulbs, as well as full overhead rigs for perfect illumination and visibility.
Pool Table Care
For general pool and snooker table care a pool table brush is an inexpensive but important item. Because fluff and finger marks can easily accumulate on the table, a brush will allow you to quickly and easily clean the surface and prevent impurities from interfering with your shot.
Pool Table Trolleys
Moving your pool table can be almost impossible without a large group of people, and can still lead to damage on the relatively fragile slate. Using one of our pool table trolleys takes away any danger to you or your table. By simply rolling the trolley underneath your table and jacking it up you can raise the table sufficiently to be able to move it. A pool table trolley is an essential investment for anyone looking to move a table.
