Richard Amalou defeats his son Rocco to lift the Nottingham Snooker Classic title

Richard Amalou defeated his son Rocco in the final of the Nottingham Snooker Classic at Spot On Hucknall on Sunday evening. They both played very well throughout the tournament, but Richard proved a little too strong for his 11 year old son in the best of 3 frame final.

Richard didn’t lose a single frame all day and the only frames Rocco lost were against his Father in the final. Both players will receive a trophy as a reward for their magnificent achievements.
