Snooker------As a branch of billiards, the sport originated in the United Kingdom is destined to be a gentrified and elegant indoor sport. Participants need to think carefully while making accurate shots. The special dress for the competition is also different from other sports. The "gentleman's suit" composed of suits, vests, bow ties, shirts, trousers and leather shoes is not only very different from other sportswear that focus on functionality, but also shows the players' deep and restrained attitude Gentleman temperament. (For the development of snooker, the World Taiwan Federation has added a new item called: except for the strong snooker game).
If a player is not sure whether his clothing meets the requirements, he can confirm with the tournament director before the game. The race director has the final decision on clothing requirements. Players may be disqualified from the competition because their costumes do not meet the requirements. In special circumstances, the tournament director may allow players whose clothing does not meet the requirements to participate in the competition, such as missing checked luggage on flights, and players' special physical conditions. At the same time, when the player hits the ball, if the clothes touch the ball, the penalty will be calculated. The penalty is 7 points, 6 points and 5 points according to the black, pink and blue points of each ball in the colored ball. Other colored balls and red balls are A four-point penalty is given. After the penalty is passed, whether to reposition the ball to the corresponding position or to replace the ball is generally decided by both parties.
dress code:
top: long sleeve shirt with collar, sleeveless suit vest (or waist seal) and bow tie. All buttons, including the cuffs, must remain buttoned during the game, and the top must be tied into the pants. The color of the top is not particularly limited. The vests of the stars are all custom-made individually, requiring long backs, not showing the waist when lying on the table, tight fronts, and not loose when bending down.
trousers: dark trousers. It should be noted that it is not allowed to wear any jeans or denim pants
shoes: it must be a formal style that matches the overall attire, and sports shoes or sandals are not allowed.
Some interesting facts about dress:
attentive audiences should find that most players choose leather shoes with pointed shoes. This reason involves a clear regulation of snooker. In the game, the player cannot leave the ground with both feet when hitting the ball. However, due to the relatively large size of the snooker table, it is sometimes necessary to stretch the body as much as possible for convenience. Therefore, many players try to choose longer and sharper leather shoes as much as possible in order to enlarge the area of the body as much as possible to facilitate stable performance.
Ding Junhui won the 6th Red Ball World Championship for the first time in the 2016 season and won the Shanghai Masters. He wore a blue vest. I have to say that the blue vest can be regarded as Ding Junhui's lucky color!
In the first round of the 2012 CBSA World Snooker Tournament Yixing Gaocheng Open, players from Australia had to "apply for help off the court" because they lost their luggage. The vest belongs to Matthew Stevens, and the bow belongs to a referee. The barefoot competition can also be said to have successfully attracted everyone's attention.
