Pool is a cue sport played on a smaller table with six pockets, using numbered balls that are potted in a set order or pattern depending on the game being played. While it is often grouped together with other cue sports, pool is different from snooker or billiards, which use larger tables, different ball sets and distinct rules and pacing. Pool tends to be faster, more compact and commonly played in social venues as well as organised amateur competitions.
ActivitySure can cover pool when you are taking part abroad on an amateur, non-professional basis and in line with the policy conditions. Whether you are playing casually in a local venue or taking part in an organised amateur event, suitable travel insurance helps protect you against unexpected incidents away from home.

Destination Insight
Where is popular to play pool?
Pool is widely played around the world, particularly in social settings such as pool halls, clubs and bars. The USA has a long-standing pool culture, with everything from casual games to structured amateur leagues forming part of everyday social life. It is also popular in destinations such as Thailand and the UK, where pool tables are common in entertainment venues and friendly competitions are a regular feature for locals and travellers alike.
Here's why pool travel insurance matters:
Although pool is not physically demanding, injuries can still happen. Slips, trips or falls around table areas, polished floors or crowded venues can lead to minor injuries. If you need medical treatment while abroad, or your trip is disrupted unexpectedly, travel insurance can help provide financial protection.
Helpful travel tips
- Stay aware of cue movements, table corners and other players to avoid accidental knocks.
- Take your time with shots rather than rushing movements in confined spaces
- Watch your footing near polished, wet or recently cleaned floors around the table areaKeep drinks and bags well clear of walkways to reduce trip hazards.
- Always follow venue rules and any guidance provided by organisers or staff.
