Meet the Phibsborough man who has one of the rarest jobs in the world

For many people, playing and teaching snooker sounds like a dream job. Well one Phibsborough man has turned his passion into a career by becoming a snooker coach.

Fin Ruane of CrossGuns Snooker Club is one of only two people working as snooker coach in Ireland. He is a coach with the World Professional Snooker Coaches and there are currently only 54 professional coaches in the entire world.

Fin told Dublin Live: “I used to play myself professionally, I gave it up to become a coach two years ago. There’s only 54 in the world and I’m one of them, there’s only two in Ireland and I’m one of them.”
