Biography Caroline has been competing on the World Ladies circuit since 1983, and has never been out of the World’s Top 16. She made her debut for England in the 1991 Home Internationals, remaining unbeaten in her matches.
One of the trailblazers in ladies snooker, Caroline was a member of the first all-ladies team, in the Feltham league, but more recently has turned her attentions to motherhood and in now mum to a two year old son.
“I’m a full time mum now, so I don’t get time to practice. But I find I’m playing better, perhaps I’m more relaxed.”
In the 2000 Embassy World Championship she inflicted a rare defeat on Kelly Fisher – in the World Ladies Billiards, when she finished as runner up to Emma Bonney.
Caroline is one of the few players who beat Allison Fisher in competition. Walchies’ moment came in the 1984 Berkshire Classic at Windsor.
She also proved herself a Holiday Camp specialist over the years, winning the Pontins Ladies Bowl at both Prestatyn and Brean Sands.
