NEW A grade team Works Raiders silenced the sceptics with a 3-1 win over last year's minor premier Works Black.

Raiders, comprising Wednesday night stalwarts Garry Glover and Alan Armitage, together with Keith Coomber and Lionel Young, returning to snooker after a four year break, won comfortably winning seven frames to three.

In the Wednesday night A reserve competition the former Longford team, now playing out of the Launceston RSL, showed it would not be fazed by the venue change winning easily, 10 frames to 2 against Works Navy.

Greg Williams marked the occasion with a 43 break, captain Adrian White knocked in a 32.

Newcomers Works Green Horns found it tough going against Works Green, going down 8-4. Works Red was the other winner scoring 7-5 against last year's premier Works Amber.

Works Gold Flaming Devils easily accounted for Exeter Black 3-1.

THE Exeter RSL Snooker Club is still rolling and looking for new members.

Northern Tasmanian Billiard and Snooker Association committee member Lloyd Rogers said the club had players that varied in ages and background.

"My team's oldest member is in his 70s and the youngest would be mid-20s - there's a wide variety of ages," Mr Rogers said.

"We had three younger players who joined from the area that went on to play in the national championships recently.

"That kind of thing can happen if you get good enough, you can go on to represent the state in snooker."

He said lessons could be organised for players wanting to improve their game.

"We have two teams within the club," Mr Rogers said.

"We have no problems with meeting, picking up or catching up with anybody who's interested in coming along to the club."

Membership is open to anyone within the Tamar Valley and surrounding areas.

If you are interested in joining the club or want information contact Lloyd Rogers on 0409943624 or Rex Swain 0408132699.
