Snooker hall for kids ?

Hope this is in the correct section , as thought it would come under entertainment.
I live in nottingham and wondered if anybody knew of somewhere I could take my 12 year old son to teach him how to play snooker ( full size tables pref.)
All of the places I know of are licenced or are for over 16's.

Would appreciate if anybody knew of anywhere

thanks :money:

  • I'm sure that I have seen children playing at Rileys.

    Nonsense. At 12 they may have to use the rest a bit more than normal, but there are plenty of kids aged 12 down our local club who can give me a thrashing.

    They certainly allow children to play in the Riley's near us before (I think) 8pm, but I believe the licencing regulations vary from place to place, so probably best to give your local one a ring to check. Number will be in their website.
  • Thanks , got one of those £10 memberships from Rileys , just wondered with them selling booze if they allowed children.
    Will give them a ring.
