Billardfreunde Baden

About Billardfreunde Baden

Billardfreunde Baden is a pool billiards club with its own playing hall, the Billardquartier in the inner courtyard of the post office building at Kaiser Franz Joseph-Ring 35. Play takes place on 6 9-foot tables, members have access around the clock, and everyone is welcome at the house tournaments on Friday evenings.

The Billardquartier

The hall measures just under 200 m² and is non-smoking. It contains:

• 5 Prostar tables, 9 feet, with Simonis 860 cloth
• 1 Dynamic III table, 9 feet, EPBF-certified
• Canteen: drinks and small hot dishes that club members cook themselves, such as Jägerfleisch with spiral pasta or Fleischlaibchen (meat patties) with parsley potatoes, plus the club's own billiards beer "9er-Break", an Orange Pale Ale served in 0.3-litre portions
• Payment: cash or card

Who can play here

The Quartier is a club venue: members and guests who come accompanied by a member can play. No previous experience is needed. Members get a free group training session once a week, and the club also has a state-certified billiards instructor.

The price list has applied since 1 February 2025:

• Basic membership: 60 euros per year, plus 8.50 euros per table per hour, shared by the players
• Youth: 25 euros per year
• Children up to 12 years: free
• Flat rate with unlimited table use: 95 euros a month or 1,000 euros for 12 months paid in advance, plus separate rates for young people and licensed players

The club recommends the flat rate from about 12 hours of play per month.

The house championship Pool-Masters runs every 14 days on a Friday in 2026, alternating between 8-ball, 9-ball and 10-ball, and is also open to non-members. Registration on site until 18:45, start 19:00, entry fee 5 euros. Since 2026 the results also count towards the ÖPBV APT ranking. The next dates:

For advanced players there is the Supercrown tournament series with entry fees and prize money, in 2026 held exclusively at the Billardquartier: Friday, 4 and 18 December 2026, each from 19:00, playing 9-ball and 10-ball. Spectators are welcome at all tournaments.

Children, schools and league play

In summer the club takes part in the Badener Ferienspiel holiday programme with taster sessions for children, in 2026 on 7 July and 4 August. In the last week of school, groups of pupils come along, most recently from the Polytechnische Schule Baden and the BRG Bad Vöslau-Gainfarn.

The club was founded in 2013 and, by its own account, is the pool billiards club with the most members in Lower Austria. In the 2026 season, 5 teams play in the Lower Austrian state league, from the 1st to the 3rd division. In June 2026 a Billardfreunde team won the NÖ-Cup of the NÖPBV, beating BSV Leonhofen 5:3 in the final. NÖPBV state championships are regularly held at the Quartier.
