Street Snooker, an outdoor game which is a hybrid of Brazilian freestyle football and snooker, has launched in the UK.

The game involves players kicking a ball at a green board which looks like a snooker table, where different coloured holes resemble the layout of snooker balls.

Players can then score points the snooker way when they kick the ball through the holes in the right sequence.

The first Street Snooker opened at the Moneyhole playing fields in Welwyn Garden City, Hertfordshire, last month.

The game is the brainchild of Marco Boi, director of Playinnovation, whose aim is to offer a range of new gaming solutions. Details: www.playinnovation.co.uk
