Please make every effort to attend League meetings to submit your scorecards and subscriptions, as losing valuable points could be costly in the long run. Failure to attend regularly could mean expulsion from the League.
Meetings are held between 7.30 and 9pm on the first Thursday of every month at the Pied Horse.
March was the last payment month. Any team that currently owes subs, this will be expected to be paid at April’s League meeting.

Please read the deadline dates for submitting various competition results carefully this month, as they vary.

We have now passed the halfway stage of the League season for new signings. Any teams that require extra players can only do so with special permission from the Committee, and should contact the League Secretary in the first instance.

In an attempt to reduce our overheads, we are introducing an Email Information Service to provide members with monthly updates.
As discussed at the last AGM, the cost of supplying our members with all the latest news and information through our monthly book is going up all the time, and was well over £1200 last season.
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 the Bristol Pool League.
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.

FREE POOL!!!!!!!!! … The Three Crowns have announced “happy hours” of pool. Between noon and 5pm, each Monday to Thursday, their tables will be open for anyone who fancies some free practise.
