What We Do
Dartmouth Avenue
Here at the University of Bath Cue Sports Club, we have our very own private venue, excusively for our members. It is located on Dartmouth Avenue, in Oldfield Park (Postal Code BA2 1AS). This facility will be open 09:00-22:00, Monday-Friday, for anyone to drop in and play a few frames!
Our Competitive Legacy
Pool
Throughout each semester we operated internal competitions in the Plug during our Sunday sessions for all of our members of all abilities that want to develop their competitive edge. These competitions will be returning for those who are similarly inclined, with more details to follow, but will be held at our Dartmouth Avenue Facility. We also entered teams into the 8-ball pool BUCS championships in Great Yarmouth, along with all other University competitions in the South. We have previously fielded 3-4 Men's Teams and a Women's Team that competed regularly, and we're looking to return to our former competitive glory after a difficult time during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Snooker
In the 19/20 academic year, we fielded 2 snooker teams to take to BUCS for the first time ever, and with our 1st team getting promoted, we're looking to defend that promotion this year! Since we have our own snooker table now, it means our teams will be able to get much more table time, and hopefully improve on what we achieved in the past.
9-ball
9-ball pool is growing fast at our club and is the first BUCS event of the year. We will have some training and taster sessions in Bristol early in the year and are hoping to build on 19/20, where we sent two teams to BUCS and four teams to the Southerns event.
Come & Meet Us
Come along on Monday evenings to the Dartmouth Avenue Facility between 4-8pm. This session is open to anyone, casual and experienced players alike! Please speak to any of the committee during the evening for more information.
Team training is held on Wednesday on an invite-only basis. New team members will be selected based on their experience, enthusiasm, and commitment. Our invites for team trials will go out during the first semester.
