On May 16, 2025, the Self-Development Division of BSSC successfully held the event of BSSC Billiard Fun Match, being part of the 1st Sports Weekend Event. At the Games Area of BINUS Square, this event aimed to foster stronger bonds among boarders through a fun yet competitive game. Before the event started, we began with briefing which is started at 08.45, precisely in the BSSC’s personal room. We immediately went to the location and welcomed the participants, to fill the entry ticket/re-register, the event started quite a little bit slow and poorly and the MC opening is late, but fortunately in the middle of the event, everything started to run smoothly and under control, from the matches, gift-giving to the champions, final documentation, exit ticket registration, and closing.
A nine-ball billiards tournament was held, following the international standards using numerically ordered balls 1 through 9 and the cue ball. The players had to aim to hit the number 1 ball first when shooting and intend to lawfully sink the final ball, number 9. Making a foul allowed the other player to place the cue ball anywhere on the table.
The first two rounds and the semifinal were decided by a single game. The grand final was played in a round-robin format. Where three remaining players have to compete with each other. On the grand final, the participants were given first place if they can win 2 consecutive rounds, if they win 1 time and lose 1 time they placed second, and if they lose 2 times third place. All matches were contested in a best-of-1 series to provide a thrilling finish to the tournament.

The goal of the event was to engage boarders in a fun and competitive nine-ball billiards tournament that fosters active participation, strengthens relationships among borders, and lits up the BINUS Square billiard community. The event then began with the filling of Entry Ticket, and continued with opening words from MC, greetings from the Chairman of BSSC, reading of the rules, and participants are divided into several brackets. The event begins with the preliminary round, starting with 13 participants after two were disqualified for not participating in the competition. The preliminary round went smoothly.
