Snooker and pool clubs typically use membership cards to manage table booking and league team registration, since many clubs restrict table time to members outside of open sessions. Cards frequently indicate a member's league team or division, useful for organisers running internal competitions, and are commonly used at the bar for member pricing on drinks. Some clubs also link the card to a locker or cue-storage allocation.

Pool & Snooker Club Membership Cards printed
Snooker and pool clubs are usually licensed premises, so the card is doing door work as well as table booking — which means the expiry year matters as much as the member’s name.
Solid PVC that survives a cue case full of chalk, full colour on both sides, free delivery within Great Britain, from 25 cards.
There are snooker and pool club membership card examples below, and the full specification is on our membership card printing page.
What Snooker and Pool Clubs Put on a Membership Card
Club name, member name, membership number and membership type — full, off-peak, concession, junior or league-only — go on the front, with the year the card runs to. Most snooker and pool clubs are licensed premises operating on a members-and-signed-in-guests basis, so the expiry needs to be unambiguous to whoever is on the counter.
League team and division are the fields organisers actually use, particularly in clubs running internal competitions alongside external league fixtures. Where the club allocates cue lockers, printing the locker number on the card saves the same conversation happening every week.
The reverse is well used for table booking arrangements and the number to ring, opening hours, member table rates against guest rates, league night schedules and the house rules. Member and guest rates in particular are worth printing, because they are the thing most often queried at the counter.
Chalk, Cue Cases and Constant Handling
A snooker club card lives in a cue case pocket, and cue case pockets are full of chalk dust. It gets into everything, and on a printed paper card it works its way into the fibres until the card looks permanently grubby. On a laminated card it collects along the sealed edge.
Our snooker and pool club cards are 760-micron solid PVC with the design sealed beneath the surface, so chalk dust sits on top and wipes straight off. There is no seam for it to collect in and no printed surface for it to abrade.
That matters because these are high-frequency cards. A member playing two or three nights a week hands the card over well over a hundred times a year, and a card that still looks smart in December is a better advertisement for the club than one that does not.
Table Booking, Promotions and Other Options
A barcode is the most useful addition for any club running table time and a bar through a till system. It ties the card to the account so member rates are applied automatically rather than depending on who is serving. Code39 is the most widely supported format, with Code128 and EAN5 also available — your till provider will tell you which they read.
Colour coding by membership type, or by league division, gives the counter the information it needs at a glance, and costs nothing since both sides of every card print in full colour as standard.
Scratch-off panels are an option worth knowing about here, because promotions are how a lot of snooker and pool clubs fill quiet afternoons. A typical panel is 8mm x 75mm and conceals a code — a free hour, a two-for-one, an entry into a club competition — which stays hidden until the member scratches it. The wording underneath is normally supplied in an Excel file so it differs from card to card.
For the rest, a signature strip and sequential numbering cover the basics: one gives you a card that can be matched to its holder, the other keeps the cards aligned with your membership register.
Membership Card Examples
The snooker and pool club cards below tend to be
dark and green-heavy, which suits the setting and prints well.
What is worth noticing is how the better ones keep the expiry year readable on a dark
card under counter lighting. Send us your club name or logo and we will build to the
same standard.
Get your Quotation Now!
For a snooker or pool club the quote depends on membership types and whether the till
needs to read the card for member table and bar rates.
Tell us your types — full, off-peak, concession, junior, league-only —
rough numbers, and whether you want a barcode. Your till provider will know which
format they read.

Design Service
Sign above the door and nothing else?
Perfectly workable. Our Design Service
builds from it for just £29 +vat
We will redraw the mark, build both sides, and fit table booking arrangements,
opening hours and member versus guest rates onto the reverse — the rates being
the thing most often queried at the counter.
Proof by email before printing.
Artwork Fixing Service
The usual issue on snooker and pool cards is contrast rather than the logo. These
cards are dark by convention, and a barcode on a dark ground does not scan.
We will put a light panel behind any barcode and tell you why. Other artwork
corrections — sizing, bleed, alignment, colour mode — are
just £10 +vat.
Free Photorealistic Email Proof
To give you complete confidence before we go to print, we’ll email you a
free, high-quality, computer-generated photorealistic proof of your full colour plastic Snooker or Pool Club membership cards.
This realistic mock-up shows how your finished Snooker or Pool Club membership cards will look, so you can check and approve the layout, text and overall design before production begins.
Fast Production Time
League seasons run roughly September to May, and most clubs reissue against the start
of the league year.
Production is 7 working days from proof
approval, with a 4 working day express option,
printed in England.
Order in August so cards are in hands before the first league night, when everyone is
in the club at once and handing them out is a single evening’s job.
Free Delivery
FREE DELIVERY within Great Britain, whatever the
quantity.
This is one of the easier deliveries we make — a club with a counter and long
opening hours, usually staffed from late morning. Boxes get signed for without fuss.
Everything travels in plain, unbranded packaging with no paperwork or invoices
inside.
Made in England
Where membership type or league division is shown by card colour, those colours want
to stay consistent from season to season.
Clubs have cards from several years in circulation, and the person on the counter is
reading colour at a glance rather than the small print. Printing every run on the
same press from the same stock keeps that reliable.
Your artwork stays on file for reorders.
Recyclable Material
Annual reissue across several membership types adds up over the years, and old cards
are usually binned as soon as the new ones are handed out.
Ours are solid PVC and can be recycled
where facilities accept PVC. A
box on the counter at renewal time collects the old ones for recycling in one go.
Biodegradable cards print identically.
Optional Extras
Two extras suit these clubs particularly.
Scratch-off panels — typically 8mm x 75mm — conceal a
promotional code until scratched, which is how a lot of clubs fill quiet weekday
afternoons: a free hour, a two-for-one, an entry into a club competition. The wording
underneath comes from an Excel file so it differs card to card.
A barcode ties the card to the till for member rates.
Our vast range of optional extras combined with our competitive prices and fast, friendly service makes us a market leader which keeps our customers returning time after time as well as recommending us.
The majority of cards that we print have a signature strip and also a unique number which is usually sequential however you can supply an Excel document and we can print the details from the document onto the cards so each one has unique details. For example, their name, membership number, expiry date, level of membership etc.
Membership Card Specifications
760-micron solid PVC,
Full Colour (CMYK)
on both sides at no extra cost, design
sealed beneath the surface — which is why
chalk dust sits on top and wipes straight off instead of working into the surface.
High gloss suits the dark greens these cards
usually use.
Premium matt adds £20 +vat and shows
fewer marks on a card handled several nights a week.
Bureau Personalisation Service
Snooker and pool clubs take members whenever somebody walks in, which is not a
schedule you can order cards against.
Our Bureau Personalisation Service means you hold
no blank stock and run no printer behind the counter. We keep your printed cards
here; you email new members’ details and we print and post them
within 3 working days.
A new member gets a proper card rather than a handwritten one.
A Plastic Card to Approve
If your card is dark and carries a barcode, get a printed one and scan it at your own
till before committing.
Dark cards are where barcode scanning most often goes wrong, and a code that reads
eight times out of ten is a problem you will be living with for a year. One real card
at your own counter settles it in a minute.
We will print one and post it.
Artwork Specifications & Guides
Two guide points that matter here.
Light panel behind the barcode. However dark the card, the scanning
area needs pale ground. Scanners read contrast.
Expiry year at readable size. On licensed premises the year is what
the person on the door acts on, and counter lighting is rarely generous.

How to Order your Membership Cards
Usually the club manager or secretary, in August before the league season.
Send the logo or a photograph of the signage, your membership types and numbers, and
say whether you want a till barcode. Approve the proof and the cards arrive for the
first league night. We keep the artwork for next season.

Snooker and Pool Club Membership Card FAQs
Can snooker and pool club cards manage table booking?
Yes. The membership number is what most booking systems key on, and a barcode can tie the card to your till so table time and member rates are handled automatically.
Can the card show league team or division?
Yes. Both can be printed, and clubs often colour-code by division as well so the counter can see who belongs to which competition without reading anything.
Can the card be used for bar pricing?
Yes. A barcode links the card to the till so member rates are applied automatically rather than depending on who is serving. We print Code39, Code128 and EAN5.
What's the minimum order?
25 cards, which suits a small club or a single league section without having to order for the whole membership.
Can we print promotional codes on membership cards?
Yes, using scratch-off panels. A typical panel is 8mm x 75mm and hides a code — a free hour, a two-for-one — until it is scratched. The wording underneath is usually supplied in an Excel file so it differs on every card.
Can cue locker numbers go on the card?
Yes, either printed directly or written onto a signature strip so the allocation can be changed without reprinting the card.
Will chalk dust mark the cards?
No. The design is sealed beneath the card's surface, so chalk sits on top and wipes off. There is no laminated seam for it to collect along either.
Can each member's name be printed on their own card?
Yes. Supply an Excel file containing only the details to be printed and every card is individually printed with its own name, number and membership type in one production run.
