Message to all our sponsors

Due to the fact the the pandemic has meant that we had to suspend our season we have decided that your current agreement with us, which would normally be renewed in August 2020 has been extended until August 2022 free of charge. We thank you for your continued support of our league.

The Paulton & District Skittle League is based in the North East corner of county of Somerset around the towns of Midsomer Norton & Radstock and it was in Paulton, one of the surrounding villages, where our league was formed way back in 1933.

We run a mixed league of both men & women and open to young and old alike (min age 16). Our season begins in September and runs through to May and league games are played on Wednesday & Thursday evenings commencing at 8.45pm. If you would like to play skittles for one of our teams or you are part of a team and want to join our league, then please contact our league secretary on our 'Contact Us' page or call Graham Whittock on 01761 434904 / 07713 960477. League tables are updated to this site on Wednesdays during the season. All League meeting times and minutes will be posted on our 'News' page. Note; all meetings start at 8pm.

On this site you can view fixtures, results, tables, photos, rules and much more. Currently we have around 1000 members, men and women, from nearly 100 teams scattered in and around this beautiful area of Somerset. While browsing our site please feel free to make use of the many advertisers supporting our league.

Watch old film clip

This area prospered in the 19th century largely due to extensive coal mining. In Radstock there is the Radstock Coal Mining Museum which is dedicated to the men who worked long hours in these Somerset pits.

If you come to this area why not visit the museum, it will give an insight to the history of this lovely part of Somerset. If you click on the picture (left) you can visit their website or watch an old film clip of how mining used to be like in the early part of the 20th century.

Every season 15% of our league fees are set aside to aid local charities. The Nominated charity this season is 'Just4children'
