For the more serious players you can register your interest in joining a Snooker or Billiards team. These teams are graded and play home and away matches against other clubs in the city or around the Melbourne suburbs. Contact us to discuss your standard and evaluating which team is suitable and available for you. Matches are played in the evenings. There are costs involved in taking part in a team.
Social competitions
Billiards, snooker and pool (8 ball & 9 ball) tournaments are held throughout the year. Members and their guests are invited to participate in these social tournaments. Each tournament includes Launch Night competitions and trophies for the tournament champions.

Entertainment and Team Building
You can enhance an event that is being held in another area of the Club, and book Robby for a show that can last from 30 minutes to three hours. Robby provides an entertaining show, and delegates and guests can be placed in teams and/or coached. Robby can perform a range of training drills, games and competition specifically designed for relationship and team building as well as entertainment.
This opportunity could be used as:
- An effective ice-breaker at the start of a function
- A welcome break from a meeting
- An up-beat finish to a conference or event
Alternatively, members can host events in the billiards room. With purpose-built exhibition arena, gourmet catering and the welcoming atmosphere of the adjacent Members' Carbine Bar, we offer a truly unique experience.
