The 2016 Shoot Out (officially the 2016 Ladbrokes Snooker Shoot Out) was a professional non-ranking snooker tournament that took place between 12 and 14 February 2016 at the Hexagon Theatre in Reading, England.

Michael White was the defending champion, but he lost 1–66 against Ben Woollaston in round two.

[1][2] The tournament was played using a variation of the traditional snooker rules.

All matches were played over a single frame, each of which lasted up to 10 minutes.

Unlike traditional snooker, if a ball did not hit a cushion on every shot, it was a foul.
