Universal Snooker Table

A universal snooker table, as you've mentioned, refers to a standard snooker table that is commonly used for the game of snooker. Snooker is a popular cue sport played on a large table covered with a green cloth, featuring pockets at each corner and in the middle of each long side.

The dimensions of a universal snooker table are standardized and regulated by the World Professional Billiards and Snooker Association (WPBSA). The official dimensions are as follows:

- The playing surface (known as the "bed") should be rectangular and measure 11 feet 8.5 inches (3569 mm) in length and 5 feet 10 inches (1778 mm) in width.

- The height of the snooker table, from the floor to the top of the cushion rail, should be approximately 2 feet 9.5 inches (851 mm).

- The table is covered with a specially designed green cloth that provides consistent play and ball roll.

- The snooker table features six pockets, one at each corner and one in the middle of each long side. The pockets are designed to accept the snooker balls when they are pocketed.

- The cushions (or rails) that surround the playing surface are made of rubber and are covered with the same cloth as the table. The cushions allow for the rebound of the balls during play.
