Why are there no women playing professional snooker?
Answers:
There are, but they normally go out in the pre TV qualifying rounds of competitions, so they are not very well known. If you can get to the qualifyers of the world championships, usually at Blackpool, in January/February you will see a lot of unknown players, who have been on the circuit for quite a few years.
its not really a sport woman play.
I think you will find there are but they are just not allowed to enter the top tornements
Because it's not promoted properly
i can think of two reasons
no one would b watchin the game
there will be women palyining proffessionally but they will also play women. the reason you dont know about them is simply because the press and television arent interested
I think there are
There are, it doesn't get as much coverage as the mens game though and there are women referees there now
Unfortunately they are not up there able to compete on top level. By the way is any else missing Mikaela Tabb
Beats me.
Think about a woman just saying the sentance, "I play snooker".
That's just hot.
There should definately be a league of some sort of the female lovers of snooker. Right on.
THEY ARE RUBBISH THATS WHY
There are! They have their own league, it is just very rare that their games are televised. They earn a fraction of the amount of money as well. Unfair if you ask me
Boobs interfere with the balls.
coz they r not intersted.

what about alison fisher she is a very good female player, on the whole professional women players only equate to about 5% of the entire professional players
Which planet do you live on? have you even looked, nope. Anyway, there are many females playing professional Snooker but not many are capable of matching their male counterparts. That's why. Yes, there should be better coverage but.. (Don't get me wrong, I'm all for it there just so many negative buts to mention)
