Following last season’s AGM, members of the league voted loud and clear on two key changes:

A Shorter, Sharper Season, & Prize Money Boost.

So, after careful consideration the Committee has raised team subscriptions and competition entry levels to reflect the prize money boost. So now we will provide more cash, more class, and more motivation to play like a champion.

We will be providing bigger incentives for top teams, standout players, and individual team performances.

To comply with the shorter season change, some teams will find themselves in different Divisions, this was simply unavoidable as we have now gone to five Divisions, whether you have moved up, down, or sideways, do not panic, it is all part of the plan to keep the League shorter, competitive, fresh, and fair.

So, if you’re scratching your head at the new divisions, do not worry, it is not a mistake, it is complying to your AGM request.

If you have moved divisions, take it as a challenge, or a compliment. Either way, play like you belong there. Besides, bragging rights taste better when earned.

New divisions mean new rivalries, or new friends.

Bring your best game. This season’s shorter, sharper, and richer, so make every frame and every match count.

In an attempt to reduce our overheads, we have introduced an Email Information Service to provide members with monthly updates.
To help reduce costs, we would like members to subscribe to this Service. The email attachment will be identical to the book that team Captains/Secretaries have previously received by post, and will be available to all league members, not just Captains/Secretaries.
We fully understand that not everyone has access to the internet and email, so for those few teams the book will still be available by post.
Apart from the cost reduction, other advantages will be that the book will be available just a few days after the monthly league meeting, rather than the 11 days it now takes. Any mistakes that arise can be instantly corrected by sending a revised book. Any other information can be easily sent, eg, reminders of important dates such as league meetings and AGM's.
To add your name to the Service, simply send an email to bristolpoolleague(at)btinternet.com
Please include the word Pool in the subject line, and in the message box leave your name, team name(s), and whether you are Captain or Secretary of your team, or that you are just a playing member of your team(s). You will receive an email shortly after to confirm your inclusion in the Service.
