Blind Squirrels Billiard Club

NineBall

The Blind Squirrels Billiard Club, formerly known as the Motorola Billiard Club, meets regularly at Q & Brew on Thursday nights starting play at 6:00 PM.  Q & Brew is located at 3400 S. Mill Ave, Tempe, AZ.  (they are set behind the SW corner of Southern and Mills Ave - behind the store fronts lining the corner).   Traffic notes: if coming south on Priest, turn east on Broadway and south on Roosevelt then east on Southern - turn right just after crossing the RR tracks, and this should save you 15 minutes along the way.

Purpose

Our club's purpose is to facilitate the exchange of information and general cooperation between members, to promote billiard knowledge, create a fraternal group of players, NineBallconduct club programs, and activities so as to advance the general interest and welfare of billiards in within our community.

The club has a constitution, bylaws and elected officers.   The newly revised Constitution was drafted and approved 16 December 2004.
Our membership is open to persons interested in the sport of billiards and desiring to play with a small group of dedicated pool players.
