Snooker Quotient - What is your SQ? 

​

Snooker Quotient has been developed over more than ten years by former World Champion and leading Coach, Terry Griffiths and his son Wayne, also a top coach to Marco Fu and Ng On Yee, amongst others. It is a system designed to quantify skill levels in snooker, and involves a player completing a number of specific exercise routines, the results of which are used to determine that player’s Snooker Quotient, or SQ. The SQ can then be used to measure skills, and progression, to focus coaching requirements or provide a basis for a handicap.

​

The SQ is assessed on four areas:

​

ISQ 1 Break Building

​

Break building has become recognised as a key skill that you absolutely need if you want to reach the top of the modern game.

​

ISQ 2 Cue Ball Control

​

You cannot make breaks without a good cue ball. Top players prove how cue ball control makes scoring look easy and takes away a lot of the pressure.

​

ISQ 4 General Skills

​

The final ISQ test sweeps up a number of general skills that will make you a more complete and rounded player, including developing awkward balls, safety and rest play.

ISQ 3 Long Potting

​

At the higher levels, you are going to need to be a proficient long potter to gain more chances to get scoring opportunities.
