A weekly event since Feb. 2011, this continues to be one of Victoria Friends’ most popular events. It is an adult-only social event with no requirements for prior experience at pool, and all equipment and necessary instruction is provided. We play for 2 hours, beginning at 7 pm, and change tables and playing partners every half hour to increase your chances to meet new friends and socialise with those you already know.

We hope you can join us for Pool night!

Pool Night FAQ:

How much does it cost to play pool? - The cost for Pool Night is $13 for the 2 hours. If your $15 annual membership dues are not up to date, you will be expected to pay them as you register.

What time should I arrive? – We begin play at 7:00 - please arrive and register by that time. When you arrive, you will check in with the event host and pay your $13 fee before starting. Exact change is helpful. Once you have paid, and been given your Name Tag, you may proceed to the tables (newcomers will be escorted to a table and given an orientation).

Can I bring a friend? – Guests are welcome during quiet months while event registration is lower. Guests are permitted if the RSVP process allows you to add a guest. If you decide to bring a friend, please be sure to register them as a guest, and explain to them that they will be playing with people other than you for most of the evening. Also please mention that this is strictly a social event, not competitive at all.

Many of us also go out for a drink and/or a bite to eat after pool. This is a great way to meet new friends and to socialize with existing ones.

First-timers (and members bringing guests): would you please send the Event Host a short message to advise us of your skill level and/or the name of your guest? There is such a large attendance at this event, it helps to schedule the teams in advance and be better prepared.

If, for some reason your plans change and you don't think you will be able to make it, please change your RSVP to "Not Going" (at the earliest possible moment) so the people on the waiting list can adjust their schedules accordingly. Do NOT click "Not Going" if you are NOT already registered.

Our Rules of Play: In a nutshell: we play team 8-ball, no call, with a 2-shot limit. We try to balance teams based on experience, and there are no skill level requirements. See Discussion Forum – http://4142298.xyz/VictoriaFriends/messages/boards/thread/46726342 for details.
