Full Size Snooker Tables for Sale
Snooker is a wonderful game that has been played for hundreds of years, with its roots dating back as far as the 16th Century to the game of billiards. The modern game dates back to the 19th century, when it was commonly played by members of the armed forces stationed in India. They adapted the games of "life pool" and "pyramid" to become the game of snooker. It requires skill, patience and a steady hand. The professional players make it look easy when watched on television, but those who play the game know how hard it is to be that good. The correct stance and cue action are critical to success on full-sized snooker tables. Full-sized snooker tables, however, are not the only option. Tables generally range between 10 and 12ft, with the larger tables employed for professional snooker competitions. Depending on where you plan to put your snooker table can greatly affect the table size we’d recommend purchasing, so we highly advise using our Games Room Designer when deciding which size to go for.

Home Leisure Direct is proud to work with the world's top snooker manufacturers, including Rasson and SAM Tagora, to ensure all of our tables are of the highest quality.
Established back in 1990, Rasson rapidly became a worldwide producer of Billiard slate. Now, over three decades later, they supply North America with nearly 60% of their slate and are the most well-known brand for billiard slate on the planet. Rasson produces 200,000 snooker tables a year, all made from the best selection of woods with exquisite craftsmanship.

Luxury Snooker Tables
We specialise in luxury slate bed snooker tables and provide a range of choices to suit your needs. We have stopped selling the lower-priced MDF snooker tables, simply due to their poor quality. They are unlikely to ever be level and are prone to being easily damaged when moving or storing. All of our snooker tables come with sectional slate beds, and we provide a fully integrated delivery and installation service by our expert engineers who have been installing snooker tables for many years. Due to the specialist nature of this product, professional installation is essential, which is why it is provided with every snooker table we sell, free of charge.
A snooker table is a luxury purchase, and our dedicated team can give you all the advice you need in choosing a table that best suits your needs and requirements. We offer the deluxe Tagora range from Sam, as well as the Rasson Magnum for a more cost-conscious snooker table.
Our Selection of Finishes: The traditional finish for a snooker table is mahogany, along with a green cloth. Mahogany is an expensive wood, so many tables are made with a mahogany cushion rail, which is the part most seen and touched. The rest of the table may then be made of other woods for the supports, such as plywood which is extremely strong and not prone to warping or cracking under heat or pressure.
Many buyers nowadays are looking for a more modern look for their snooker table. Oak has become very popular, which often matches the interior of a modern home well. The Tagora range from Sam can be provided in the traditional mahogany finish, but also in either black or a fantastic silver finish. The Rasson Magnum has been used in the Champion of Champions tournament, among others, and has a very modern look.
