I've always been an advocate for more frames in the Singles but the last time it was proposed it was laughed away because it gave the better players more chance of winning and less chance of a 'giantkilling' . . Although the rules would warrant an increase in frames, I doubt very much the lower divisions would go for it . .


I'm in division 3 and I would love to play more frames in a match, especially the single rounds.

I'm sure there are players in the lower divisions who do want more frames but it seems the general concensus feel that it gives them a better chance over a shorter distance . .

It was proposed at the same time that World Rules were introduced that the Singles & Doubles matches be played over the best of 5 frames in the early rounds and it was voted against by quite a large majority . .

Well now everyone's more used to world rules (or at least should be) maybe it's worth proposing again. Nothing to lose.

Mention it to your Secretary as he will be the person who needs to submit the proposal . .

at the end of the day, in my opinion, the better player deserves to win anyway. I'd be less likely to re-enter next season if i got lucked out on a couple of frames on the best of 3 than if i got hammered say 5-0 because i was purely out-played.
