Chris is coming to The Premier Pool and Snooker Club in Selby on the night of Friday 24th April to do one of his exhibitions.

He will apparently play at least 50 frames of pool against anyone who puts their name down for this... then do a 30 to 45 minute trick shot exhibition with jokes and entertainment... and then finish the night off by trying to break the speed pool world record.

At the request of the club's owners, this is going to be a ticket only event with tickets costing £5 each... and as Chris only guarantees playing 50 frames, then it is only the first 50 tickets sold, that guarantee you a frame against one of the top players in the world.

If anyone is interested, either give me a call on 07771 523841 or leave a message on here or www.selby8ball.com! :D

Will be a good night.

Here's a couple of links for players as bored as me............ ;-)

Chris Melling v Mick Hill 06

Trickshots - Not Melling

Tried to find some, but they were a bit grainy. Good standard nonetheless.

The Melling vs Flack match on Cuesport TV is pretty good

Right, for those that don't know how to get there, the Premier Club is on a little street called Long Trods which is just off Flaxley Road, opposite one of the Car showrooms and around the corner from the Job Centre.

Directions are:

Head south on A19 to Selby.

As you get to Selby you will come to a roundabout. Turn right (2nd main exit... Ignoring a small dirt track type exit).

This will then take you to a second roundabout. Take your 1st exit.

Follow road over the swing bridge that goes over the canal. Turn right at the lights.

Follow that road to a mini roundabout. Take your first exit... Straight on.

Follow this road round a right hand bend and then turn right immediately after the Job Centre.

The club is at the end on the right. :)
