2 The PJ Nolan Champions Academy TM Introduction To The Academy Training Workbooks Welcome to The PJ Nolan Champions Academy Training Workbooks with the unique scoring system that give the players the opportunity to increase their best scores and achieve higher levels in my academy Each workbook contains 5 training routines with six different Academy levels from Yellow, Green, Brown, Blue, Pink and Black ball levels for the player to judge his training Session standard A full range of 20 different Senior Academy Workbooks and 4 Junior workbooks have now been designed to keep the players working hard on improving their overall game The players are allowed a maximum of three attempts on each of the five routines and the highest score from each routine are recorded from that session onto the score chart at the back of the workbook All the five routines top scores are then added together and this total identifies the players true academy level he achieved during that training session Some academy routines you count the breaks, and other routines you count the number of balls you have potted but in all of the routines the player must try and achieve higher scores during each training session I am not claiming that my training programs are the only way to practice but I do know that these routines have helped produce a number of Irish, European, Gulf and Asian snooker champions over the years Every good shot you play in a tournament depends on how much ground work, you have done on the practice table, because the harder you work at this game, the more you will get out of it Having a qualified snooker coach to monitor your game will help the player be more focused and be more successful I believe my workbooks will help the players improve their training sessions by allowing them to set goals to reach the next level in the academy If you work hard on learning how to control yourself, Improving your score power, Cue action and Cue ball control you will become a more successful snooker player
