Season 2024-2025
 
Update .. w/c 9 December
 
Wymeswold Cons stretched their lead at the top of the table following a convincing victory at home against visiting Top House .. a rare defeat for Syston Cons B saw them lose ground on the leaders after being comprehensively outplayed by visitors Syston Social Club .. there was a good win for the much improved Barrow Cons away to third placed Carington Cons while Carington Arms got the better of a low scoring encounter with Queniborough Wanderers .. finally, Syston Cons A romped to a bloodless 4-0 victory at home versus Sileby Workos A who, unfortunately, could only field three players on the night .. full scores and detailed match reports are available on the Weekly Results page.

Singles Qualifying 
Val has now written to all Team Secretaries to request a list of intended entries for this season's Singles Competition .. the Qualifying Round is scheduled for Friday 24th January .. please respond asap in order that we can confirm both alley location and draw.
 
Christmas Raffle
The committee have decided there will be no Christmas Raffle this year following a perceived general sense of apathy to last year's event particularly when it came to prize donations .. the committee have not yet ruled out the possibility of an end of season raffle in some form which would take place at the annual Presentation Night .. feel free to debate this amongst yourselves over the coming months and provide feedback to any member of the committee.
 
 
Team Registration and Subs - 2024-25 Season
We currently await verification that the one remaining team to forward their subscription monies has completed this task .. thanks to all teams for their co-operation in this matter .. with reduced income from losing teams over the Summer these monies are vital to the financial wellbeing of the League and its continued existence.  
 
 
Auditing of the Accounts
Treasurer, Mike James, has asked me to enquire if there is anyone out there among the skittles community that is both capable and willing to audit the accounts for the last season .. whilst not necessarily a legal requirement, we do like to keep things transparent and in order for both the current and future administrative officers of the League ... please contact a committee member if you are able to help in this matter.
