Members Guide

1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.
2. Respect the clubs and other people’s property.
3. Laugh with anyone, but laugh at no one.
4. Be responsible for any mess that you make. Please clean up after yourself.
5. Keep noise to a minimum and take extended phone calls outside the room.
6. Members must use their Door Pin to access the room. Do not let anyone in who you do not know to be a member, even if they have been previously.

1. Members who have a Table Booking take preference. All other times, first in best dressed.
2. When re-spotting and setting up balls, please roll balls onto their spots, do not place or drop.
3. Masse, jump & one-handed shots are not permitted at any time unless you are a known high-level player.
4. Please turn off the table light at the end of each session.
5. Cues and rests are to be placed back in their provided racks after use.

To help spread the wear that the tables receive, we have decided to trial a “No Solo” restriction. This will apply to both the snooker and nineball tables.

Each month, one snooker table will be classed as a “No Solo” table. This table cannot be used for solo practice during that month. Each month, we will rotate through to a new snooker table.

Table A will always be the “No Solo” table for the nineball tables and will not rotate monthly.

The online table booking system will clearly state which table is the current “No Solo” table.

If all other tables are in use, and the “No Solo” table is the only table available, a single member can play on that table; however, they must play simulated Matchplay and not solo drills or repeated shot practice.

Food

1. No food is to be consumed in the billiard room at any time.
2. All food purchased or brought in from outside sources, must be consumed in the car park.
3. Food purchased from the Bistro can be consumed in the public bar or on the deck.

Drinks

1. Bottled water, including in a sports bottle, can be brought in and consumed inside the billiard room at any time.
2. Board Members and Club Chermside staff can check the contents of a drink container at any time.
3. When the Club Chermside public bar is open, drinks must be purchased from the bar, except for water.
4. All drinks, including alcoholic, purchased from the Club Chermside public bar can be brought back into the billiard room and consumed.
5. When the Club Chermside public bar is closed, all non-alcoholic drinks can be brought into and consumed in the billiard room.
6. No alcoholic drinks can be brought in from outside the club at any time.

If something in the room is broken or not working, or any other room related issues, please let the Board know as soon as possible.

You can either send an email or SMS, or message a member of the Board directly via the Online Members Area.

We understand mistakes and accidents happen, so please do not hesitate to let us know as soon as something is not as it should be.

Wifi is available for members to use for free when in the snooker room.

All Members and Guest must:

1. Follow any current government-imposed restrictions or guidelines.
2. Adhere to all other aspects listed in our COVID Safe Plan.

Members have the privilege of bringing up to two visitors to the club for table play. A visitor fee of $20 per visitor will be charged for the day.

Payment and Notification Process:

• The visitor fee can be paid via secure Credit Card payment during the Table Booking System process.
• You can also choose to pay the $20 visitor fee via invoice. Simply select the “Via Invoice” option when prompted on the Table Booking form.
• By using the Table Booking Form, this will also notify the Board of your visitors, eliminating the need to notify us via email or text message.
• If you forget to advise us during your table booking, you can still use the usual process of email or text message to inform us.

Members are responsible for their visitors’ behaviour and must ensure they follow all club rules and regulations. Visitors are required to play on the same table as the member and must exit the venue simultaneously with the member.

Please note that our club uses facial recognition cameras to monitor the presence of non-members. Failure to notify the Board about visitors playing on the tables, as required, may result in membership termination.

For members with children under 18, permission for their play is required only once, and no additional visitor fee will be applied.

Please be advised that the following items of clothing and accessories are not permitted to be worn in the billiard room or Club Chermside at any time:

• Any swimwear.
• Singlets and tank tops.
• Excessively Soiled sportswear.
• Bare feet.
• Excessively Torn or dirty clothing.
• Hats or headwear are not permitted, unless for medical or religious grounds.

The Board of Directors reserves the right to modify or change dress regulations without notice.
