Does anybody here know of any university teams other than York? I'd really like to get a national student competition going!

What a great idea for a national student competition ! As Sav says, Cambridge University would definitely be the one to contact. Here's more about the Tiddlywinks Club to which he provided a link, and I gain the impression that they like their ale! : My niece Sian tells me that Cambridge University have a "Tiddlywinks Club" which covers a multitude of games and pastimes played competitively, and they stage an annual bar billiards tournament at the Empress pub in Cambridge. I think this blog has something to to with it: abblyfish.blogspot.co.uk/2012/01/my-epic-adventure-to-cambridge.htmlI believe they also have their own bar billiards table in the bar at St John's College. www.sjcjcr.com/life-at-johns/facilities/

Just an update, Cambridge never got back to me, and I've heard nothing from Sheffield either.

It seems that a second Cantab college also has a bar billiards table in its bar:
Leckhampton Bar, Leckhampton House, Corpus Christi MCR (= Middle Combination Room) 37 Grange Road Cambridge CB3 9BJ
