pool etiquette

· Do not stand in an opponent's line of sight, when they are taking a shot. If you are caught out by an opponent playing quickly and you are in line of sight, then stay motionless until the shot has been taken.

· Try to read the game, and make sure that wherever possible you have moved from a players probable shot position before they get there. If you have not had chance to move and the player asks you to move, do not simply lean to the side; stand up and move away from the players position.

· Do not heckle players; e.g. Do not cheer when a player fouls, Do not talk in a purposely loud voice to put off players, do not make comments such as "this is a difficult pot for him/her, bet they'll miss". Do not complain endlessly about bad luck or an opponents good luck. etc…

· If a player looks like winning the frame in their current visit, do not unscrew your cue, put on your coat, stand in the doorway, etc…

· Do not leave your chalk or anything else on the table after your shot, meaning your opponent has to move it.

· Do not receive/make phone calls on your mobile during a frame you are involved in.

· If a close decision (eg a tight 'total snooker' call) is made by the referee do not take it in turns to line up the shot to check, it is the referees decision, although the players may ask the referee to check again.

· As referee, you are the impartial judge for any decisions, ensure that the game has your full concentration at all times
