Tom Cleary Looks Back
Introduction
Tom Cleary
The Victoria Billiards & Snooker Association of Australia managed to acquired a manuscript written in the 1970's by the great Australian billiard-player Tom Cleary (World Amateur Champion in 1954, and five times Australian National Champion between 1947 and 1966). This 41-page document was discovered in an auction of sporting memorabilia and has been published as a series of articles in the VB&SA newsletter "The Cue and You".
We are grateful to the VB&SA for their permission to use some extracts from this document which gives a fascinating insight into one of the World's greatest post-war players.
