Billiards

The generic term "billiards" covers a family of indoor games played on a table with a stick, known as a cue, which is used to strike and move the cue ball around the table.

Cue sports include: billiards, carom, pool and snooker, all of which are featured in the 15th Asian Games.

Snooker and billiards are played on the largest table, eight and nine ball pool are played on a more compact table, while carom uses a table which has no pockets.
