| Originally started playing snooker at the tender age of 12 at Corn exchange and came in the top half of the Saturday junior club league one place above that kid with one arm and beer bottle glasses and realised at an early age that the snooker ability of a young MisterC would never be anything more than picking balls out of pockets. At this stage he decided to get his eyes tested and it was apparent that glasses were needed to further interfere with the poorly developed cueing action. After a couple more years of fitting in social snooker in between playing cricket for his school, local club and the Derbyshire academy by the age of 17, was promptly whisked down to the English Riviera coast to combine university education with the running of a family hotel and pub looking after the needs of drunken rugby and cricket players. After a long stint in Devon he moved back to Derby to start up his own company and inflict the pain of rugby groups on other unsuspecting hoteliers around the world. A few years on and with a bit more time on his hands misterc stumbled across an old snooker cue and thought he'd try it out once again and managed to rack up a few nice 2 ball breaks before getting an appetite for the game once again. Contact lenses were brought into the equation and after a couple of years of social snooker down at Cueball he got to know some of the team players in the circuit and was invited to join the failing Cueball 3 team, languishing at the bottom of B division by which point his first move was to sign the wayward talent of a young JTG who was promptly taken under his wings and influenced with excessive drinking silly side bets and general off the rails behaviour. Another season prevailed and a bit more consistency showing in his game he was asked to captain Cueball 3 and after a couple of inspired signings in “Beechy the whacker” and “Dwayne the rocket” the team achieved promotion in to the A division in 2006 to mix it with the ‘elite' of derby. | |||||||||
