Snooker player named 'Rookie of the Year'
Manx snooker professional Darryl Hill has received a major accolade.
He was named 'Rookie of the Year' at the World Snooker Awards ceremony at the Dorchester Hotel in London last night.
Hill has risen to number 92 in the world rankings in his first year as a professional.
John Higgins was named player of the year, while recently-crowned world champion Mark Selby picked up the journalists' player of the year award.
Darryl went to the awards ceremony with Isle of Man Snooker Association Chairman Ken Kinrade and the table seating plan had them talking straight away:-
Hockey: Bacchas Mens and Valkyrs Ladies among sides to progress from cup first round
Rugby: Douglas keep playoff hopes alive
Football: Castletown close in on Division 2 leaders
More men on the Island getting involved in netball
