Hi, I'm Mary Talbot — a British international pool player, recently representing Great Britain at the Commonwealth Billiards Championships and competing on the Ultimate Pool Tour.

I’m currently self-funding my international career while working part-time, and I’ve been selected to play in a series of international tournaments that are a vital stepping stone toward turning professional full-time.

My next major goal includes representing myself on the international stage at The European Heyball Championships in Germany next month and Ultimate Pool USA in November, but I need your help to get there.

I’m aiming to raise £3,000 to cover:

Flights & accommodation

Entry fees

Travel to and from events

In return, I’ll be documenting the full journey through my social media (@maryplayspool on TikTok, @marytalbotpool on Instagram, @Mary Talbot and @Mary Talbot Cuesports on Facebook) so you’ll see every shot, every challenge, and every win along the way.

Whether you can donate £5 or £50, every bit helps me focus on my training, compete at the highest level, and inspire other women in cue sports.

Thank you for believing in me and being part of this journey — it truly means the world

Let’s pot some dreams together.
