Like basketball, the game is played on a hard court with scoring rings at both ends, and with a ball resembling a basketball (but lighter, smaller and slightly softer in construction). The rings, whilst of similar height and dimension to basketball hoops, do not have a "backboard". The field is divided into thirds which regulate where individuals in each team are allowed to move, and two semi-circular "shooting circles" at each end from within which all scoring shots must be taken.\n\nThere are seven players on each team, who are given nominated, named positions (and in competitive netball must wear "bibs" or "patches" showing the abbreviations below indicating that position). They are only allowed in certain areas of the court, as described below:\n\nNetball positions \nPosition Name Abbreviation Opponent Areas permitted \nGoal Shooter GS Goal Keeper Attacking goal third including shooting circle \nGoal Attack GA Goal Defence Attacking goal third, shooting circle, and center third \nWing Attack WA Wing Defence Attacking goal third and centre third, not shooting circle \nCentre C Centre Everywhere except shooting circles \nWing Defence WD Wing Attack Defensive goal third and center third, not shooting circle \nGoal Defence GD Goal Attack Defensive goal third and center third, including shooting circle \nGoal Keeper GK Goal Shooter Defensive goal third, including shooting circle \n\nBy the combination of the above, only the Goal Attack and Goal Shooter are able to score goals directly.\n\nNetball rules do not permit players to take more than one step in possession of the ball. Consequently, the only way to move the ball towards the goal is to throw the ball to a teammate. The ball cannot be held by one person for more than 3 seconds at any one time. This, combined with the restrictions on where players can move, ensures that everyone on the team is regularly involved in play. Defence is restricted -- not only is contact not permitted, but players must be at least three feet (90 centimetres) away to defend, meaning that hard physical contact is rare. If contact is made, the ball must be passed to the team against which the penalty was committed.\n\nA game is played in 4 quarters of 15 minutes each, with an interval of 3 minutes between the first and second and third and fourth quarters and an interval of 5 minutes at half time. There is up to 2 minutes of time allowed for each injury.

I found a definition of billiards from Encyclopaedia Britannica,\n"any of various games played on a rectangular table with a designated number of small balls and a long stick called a cue. The table and the cushioned rail bordering the table are topped with a feltlike tight-fitting cloth. Carom, or French, billiards is played with three balls on a table that has no pockets. The other principal games are played on tables that have six pockets, …" [1]\n\nEnglish Billiards is played with only 3 balls. 2 whites and 1 red ball.  \nYou can find some information at the following link, look down the page for the title 'English Billiards".  It also provides some information on snooker.\nhttp://www.tradgames.org.uk/games/Billiards-Snooker.htm\n\nThe rules of billiards can be found here\nhttp://infohost.nmt.edu/~billiard/house_rules/english_billiards.html\n\n\nJust in case you do not know what a 'cue' ball is.  It is the ball you have to hit with your stick or cue.\n\n\nSnooker has 1 white ball, 15 red balls, and 6 coloured balls.  The 6 colours being Yellow, Green, Brown, Blue, Pink, and Black.\nThe white ball is the 'cue' ball.\nThe red balls are worth 1 point.\nThe coloured balls are worth Yellow - 2 points., Green - 3 points, Brown - 4 points, Blue - 5 points, Pink - 6 points, Black - 7 points. [2]\n\nThe page I gave with English Billiards also has snooker information, you need to go to the title of 'Snooker' on the page:\nhttp://www.tradgames.org.uk/games/Billiards-Snooker.htm\n\nMore snooker rules can be found here:\nhttp://www.billiardworld.com/snooker.html\n\n\nPool is usually played with 1 white ball and 15 coloured and numbered balls.  There are a few varities to snooker, including 8-ball, 9-ball, etc.\nYou can find the rules to these different varieties from the following web page.  You will have to click the link on the left that says 'GAME RULES' and selct on of the items in there.\nhttp://www.bca-pool.com/play/\n\n8-ball is probably the most known game, and its rules, objectives, etc can be found here:\nhttp://www.epa.org.uk/wrules.php

in snooker it would be 147 if the opponent had not made a mistake.\n\nhowever if the opponent  started with a foul shot and left a free ball,it would be possible to score 155,but this has never been achieved,there have been quite a few 16 red clearances,but the highest score which has been achieved twice is 151.

You know, it's interesting how often people want to get so hung up on semantics.  I think most people realize that the asker meant to say "pool" and not "snooker".  Also, "billiards" does not necessarily refer only to carom games.  Relax people, this isn't the Christians Vs. the lions.  Incidentally, I notice a lot of arrogance on the part of snooker players towards pool players.  If pool is so much easier, then why do so few snooker players excel at pool when they try to make the switch?  Alison Fischer and Karen Corr are two notable exceptions, of course.  I'm not trying to start an argument, as I have a great deal of respect for snooker.  Both games stress different skills.  Snooker requires very precise pocketing skill.  Pool (depending on the game) utilizes different techniques to move the cue ball, such as cheating the pocket and running balls along the cushion.  In fact, my favorite pool game, 14.1 continuous, shares many things in common with snooker.  In straight pool, you have to master short position, breaking up clusters, precise safety play, etc.  In any case, the best place to find game rules would be the BCA website.  They are the North American representative of the WPA.  So, they use world standardized rules.  Best of luck, and just have fun, don't listen to all the negative talk.  M.D.-BCA Instructor/Referee.

The rules are generally announced at the beginning of each match and can change, like house rules when you play poker.\nHere's how it goes generally\n1. Keep your face mask or goggles on at all times. (This is the hardest for me because the damn things fog up my glasses)\n2. If your face mask or goggles come off, cover your eyes and yell "Dead Man" (This may be different in different places)\n3. If someone yells dead man, cease fire and don't move until the all clear is given.\n4. If you get hit and the paint ball doesn't burst, it doesn't count. If it makes a mark, you're dead. Yell "Dead Man" and then leave the field.\n5. When one team is out of guys, the other team wins. The last guy is required by an unwritten rule to go down in a blaze of glory.\n\nI think that's it, but generally you do a rundown before the start of each match to make sure everyone is on the same page.

You would be far better off getting a cue to play billiards. A cue is longer and straighter then glasses so will will stand a far better chance of actually hitting something.
