About Us

Club Rules

The snooker section opened in the summer of 1999 following a successful transition from Stratford Upon Avon Union Club.

The club is situated in idyllic surrounding close to the River Avon opposite the Royal Shakespeare Theatre and just a short walk from the town centre. The aim of the Section is to promote good fellowship and social intercourse for the benefit of members and to provide facilities for playing snooker and billiards.

Members enjoy a warm welcome together with superb facilities that include 4 Riley Aristocrat snooker tables which were installed at the beginning of 2008 and are superbly maintained by our own cleaner.  Each table is fully equipped with it's own set of accessories to enjoy the game.

There is also a viewing lounge where players can relax over a drink whilst waiting for a table.

We have junior, student and senior membership and our application system ensures we maintain our high standards. Our strict dress code rule must be respected at all times by both members and their guests.

For members who wish to be a little more competitive they are invited to enter our various competitions.

Members have access from 8am until 11pm daily

Mark Joyce visits the club

Thanks to Richard Hampton,   Mark Joyce the snooker professional at present with a World Ranking of 50 which is 5 behind Steve Davis and 1 ahead of Jimmy White visited us last Thursday 26th January and duly demonstrated his skill on the baize in front of an audience of 28.     Making  good breaks including one of  100  he scored too heavily for most of our players.     However the highlight of the evening was the game Mark played against our own very experienced player Nigel Crawford,  who won to everybody’s delight.     An excellent buffet provided by Kari added to this very successful event.
