Background
If traditional “best of 9-frame” matches are thought of as golf’s match-play, then ONEFORSEVEN provides a stroke-play alternative.
ONEFORSEVEN is based primarily upon accumulative points scoring rather than accumulative frame scores. This makes the format ideally suited to a more attractive, attacking style of play; avoiding the often criticised negative element that the more traditional format seems to encourage.
ONEFORSEVEN has been described as snooker’s version of Twenty20 cricket meets Prize-fighter boxing, with a specific aim of improving the spectacle for spectators and viewers.
The format allows an event to start and finish in a realistic and scheduled period of time, without compromising the essence of the game.
