Dress Code Update for sanctioned snooker events in NSW
/Snooker & Billiards NSW wishes to inform all participants of an important update to the dress code for sanctioned snooker events in New South Wales.
Effective immediately, plain black or white polos are no longer permitted at any stage of our events where polos are allowed. This change has been implemented to enhance consistency and ensure a professional appearance across all tournaments.
Players now have the option to wear either the official SBNSW polo or a predominately plain coloured dress shirt during relevant stages of each event. (Interstate players participating in relevant events held in NSW may wear a current official state polo).
Please note that dark tailored trousers, dark colored plain dress shoes & socks remain mandatory, with a waistcoat and/or bowtie still required for the latter stages of most events. It is important to note that these changes only apply to events where polos are permitted; some events may still require full dress.
We strongly encourage all players to review the specific terms and conditions for each event to ensure compliance with the dress code.
This will take effect immediately, with upcoming events including the NSW Women’s State Snooker Championship, and the South Pacific Open Snooker Championship both already incorporating this change into their terms & conditions.
For further details, please refer to the attached infographics - for both Open & Women's events.
SBNSW appreciates your cooperation and commitment to maintaining the highest standards in our sport.
