Paulton & District Skittle League

Other News:-  You may have noticed that our SotY is not in the Norton Carnival week !  The carnival is normally the 2nd week in November, but this year they have moved it back a week. Sorry my fault 😔 I should have checked again before setting SotY week. However Norton carnival is on a Monday (16th) anyway.    (Carnival Dates 2026)

Match Reports & Banter Board:- Please try to make use of these pages.  We have over 700 members and only a handful of people use them, so let's get more inter-active.  Why not try your hand at a witty Match Report or have your say on the Banter Board- go on, go on, go on...  Try it now, it's just a bit of fun. 😁 

Results:- We are very impressed by the way you are all getting your results in on time and sticking to our new start time. Thank you and keep it up👍

Reminder:-   All matches now start at 8.30pm.  So please get there in plenty of time to go to the bar and put your names up.  If you intend to start a little late due to unforeseen circumstances please inform your opponents beforehand.  Most teams will be accommodating.  Not saying anything then starting at 8.45pm is just bad form.  Speak to each other and let’s keep playing.   Late Start Penalties:-  Late once - you will receive a warning,  Late twice - you will receive a final warning.  Late 3 times and deduction of 3 points will be applied.  After that an additional 1 point will be deducted for each time you are late.  This rule also applies to teams who fail to turn up at all.  (Adverse weather condition or emergency situations notwithstanding)

Sending in Results via WhatsApp:-   Please use WhatsApp to send in your results:- Send to, Neil Cradock on  07498 680813. Just take a photo of your Score BOOK and send it to Neil. (We are no longer using score cards.)  OR you can submit an on-line results form via our 'Result Forms' page.  Neil is doing a great job for the league by receiving scores and results and getting them all recorded within 48 hours.  Most of you are getting it right, but we do get some photos with missing, Total Pins, Points and sometimes Team Names !!   Although Neil is getting very good at deciphering results he is not a mind reader !   So please check all information is present and correct before sending.  If you have any other skittle related questions or queries please send them via WhatsApp to Keith on 07368 398615 or via the form on the Members Zone.  Thank You.

Need New Players ?   Then let us know, we can advertise it here.  John and his two mates found a team, they are now playing for the Bonus Balls. Teams are still struggling for players, so if you want to join the fun, pop along to your local pub or club on a Wednesday or Thursday evening and introduce yourself. 👍

Charity Nominations - We are still looking for charities for next years award.   If you have a nomination you would like to put forward, then please email any of the committee.  Award will be presented at our AGM in June 2027. 

Members Zone:-   This area is now OPEN.  However the Banter Board, Match Reports & Captains Log pages are still password protected.   If you don't know the password please ask any committee member.

Captains Log:-  Please check out our 'Captains Log' page, to check that we have all your details correct.  We urge all members to read our rules and please look around our website, all that you need is here. Thank you.

Facebook:- If you have visited our Facebook page in the last month, you would have noticed a vast improvement in content and style.  That's because our new Social Media Officer, Ben Derrick, has his hands firmly on the reins and is steering us to new heights.  Great work young man.  Let's get more people playing the game we all love.
