The present invention relates to a snooker table (10) having a conventional rectangular outer frame having opposed major sides (12, 14) and minor sides (16, 18). The playing surface (20) is non-rectangular, in that a pair of arrowhead or 'V' shaped projections (22, 24) extend inwardly from respective major sides (12, 14). The playing surface (20) thus has an hour glass-type shape, and is bounded by a conventional cushion (26). Pockets (28) are provided at opposite corners of the table, as in a conventional snooker table. The projections (22, 24) terminate in similar pockets (30A, 30B), which are located along the same centre-line as the middle pockets of a standard snooker table, but which are spaced inwardly relative thereto. It is stated that the snooker table provides for a snooker type game which is both versatile and challenging.
