description Skittle pool Overview
Skittle pool is a cue sport that combines elements of pool or billiards with skittles, a form of pin-based bowling. Players use a cue and cue ball to knock down skittles arranged on the table, so the game depends on both cue-ball control and accurate contact with the pins. It is associated with British pub and recreational culture and suits players looking for a hybrid table game rather than conventional pocket billiards. Local rules and equipment can vary.
