First Pub Night of 2025!!!

Posted on March 29, 2025 by Media in Social Event

On Friday 28th March, we held our first pub night event of 2025!

We had a shorter training session focused on shiai practice, which was a good experience for both our Dan and Kyu players – for our 2024 Semester 1s, this was our first opportunity to gain “real” match experience!

After training, beginners and seniors alike eagerly hurried over to the Royal Hotel Darlington for a super fun night of food, drinks, socialising, and of course some 8-ball pool! It’s been a while since our last club pub night, so everyone made sure to enjoy themselves thoroughly!

This was the first opportunity for our new 2025 Semester 1 cohort to mingle and engage with the senior members, and their first official social event with the club – we made sure to give them a warm welcome!

Here are some photos from the night! (Check in with our Instagram page for more photos!)

Mingling!

(Look at that cheese pull!)

Our seniors deep in exciting conversation! (I wonder what they’re talking about…)

Big grins all around!
