College Billiard Tour Association

Have you ever just walked past the game room and taken a look at the trophies being displayed? There's a case full of them. I once took a Billiards class for half a P.E. credit. It was fun and I learned the proper techniques to the game, but I am still an awful player. Not sure why because I'm careful with my form and everything.

For anyone out there who doesn't completely suck at Billiards check out this club. The University Of Akron College Billiard Tour Association (C.B.T.A) was formed in 1996 with the intent of uniting billiards enthusiasts within the University of Akron. They meet every Wednesday night from 7-11 in the Barry Lefkowitz Billiards Parlor located in the University of Akron Student Union Gameroom. All skill levels are welcome to join. In addition to playing at the University of Akron they also compete in intercollegiate tournaments.

There is also a Barry Lefkowits Scholarship Billiards Tournament happening tomorrow from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. The winner will receive a $1000 scholarship.

Anyone interested in joining can request their Facebook page for more information or email the group at uacbta@yahoo.com.
