A free ball in snooker is a ball that is elected by the incoming player to take the place of a ball that is legal to shoot, or "on".
The reason for this election is that the opponent fouled, and left the incoming player "snookered" on every ball on.
The free ball can be any ball on the table, and will be scored with the value of the ball it replaces. Any colored ball pocketed as a free ball will be respotted as usual.
You get a free ball if your opponent has fouled and has left you snookered.
You can be even slightly snookered on the ball on and still elect a free ball. If you do not have full and unlimited access to a full ball on, you may elect a free ball. If you can see the whole ball, except for the tiniest piece of one side, you can still elect a free ball. The only exception to this rule is in the case of a ball on blocking access to another ball on.(in the case of red blocking red)
An incoming player can elect a free ball if the opponent has fouled, and left the incoming player 'snookered" on all balls on.
Complete and unrestricted access must be available to a ball on, or a free ball can be elected. The exception to this occurs when access to a ball on is hindered by another ball on. (in the case of reds blocking reds) No free ball can then be elected.

At Cue Power, snooker players can choose from a range of snooker ball sets to suit their individual needs and preferences. The two main types of snooker balls available are standard snooker balls and professional-grade snooker balls. Standard snooker balls are typically made from a composite material, such as polyester or phenolic resin, and are designed for casual players or beginners. These balls are generally less expensive than professional-grade balls, and may not offer the same level of durability or consistent performance. Professional-grade snooker balls, on the other hand, are made from high-quality materials such as aramith or pro phenolic resin, and are designed to meet the exacting standards of professional players. These balls are more expensive than standard snooker balls, but offer superior durability, consistency, and performance. They are also often available in a range of sizes and weights, allowing players to customize their ball set to suit their individual playing style. In addition to differences in material, snooker balls can also differ in terms of size and weight. Standard snooker balls are typically 2 1/16 inches in diameter, while professional-grade balls may be slightly larger or smaller, depending on the manufacturer. Similarly, the weight of snooker balls can vary depending on the material and size of the ball, with professional-grade balls typically weighing more than standard balls.
A baulk colour is any of the coloured snooker balls usually spotted on the baulk line in snooker - the yellow, green, and brown balls.
