Yatton and District Summer Skittles League
50th Anniversary Year
Sponsored by Cladanco

Results, Tables & Stats - Done and dusted for another season  -  many thanks to all the hard working Captains and players for making it another superb season.  It was a close finish, with many decisions being made in the last week of games.  Congratulations to this year's League Champions - Unpredictables, Backwell A and Just for Fun.  And to Runners Ups - Dambusters, Blues n Twos and Troublemakers.  To the Teams that got relegated, remember our Chairman's very favourite saying "The beer tastes the same in every division" .    Have a look at the Statistics Page as it summarises the end of season position - click here.

Please make an effort to come to our 50th Year Anniversary Presentation Evening on Saturday 26th September at Claverham.  It will be the same fun format that worked so well last year, including handing over cheques to our chosen Charities, presentation of trophies, buffet, raffle with some superb prizes and the skittle competition with £50 prizes for the winning lady and man to celebrate our 50th Anniversary.   You don't have to win anything to attend.  If anybody has any old records or photos please let one of the Committee have a copy.

A reminder to the Teams that have yet to pay their bill or vote for their Charity Choices, that the deadline is this Friday 28th August.

Even though we had some great scores in the away leg of this season's Interleague game against the Weston Mixed League, we could not hang on to the prestigious Top Banana Trophy.  That leaves it two wins each.  Next year we will be at a home alley.  It was a great night.  Thank you to everyone that turned out, especially the players.  £151 was made on the night, which the Weston Mixed League kindly donated their share towards our charity choices as it is our 50th Anniversay.











The Interleague team was:
Ladies - Carmel Wear, Jackie Spearing (Firecrackers), Josie Green, Michelle Williams (Churchill Monkeys), Angela Blair (Just for Fun), Marie Young (Mixtures - Pairs Winner). 
Men - Aaron and Ian Norton (Bits & Pieces), Jer Brooks (Just for Fun), Ian Hawkesby (Firecrackers), Andy Capern (Kingston), Gavin Lane (Mixtures - Pairs Winner). 

Congratulations to Just for Fun for winning the Cup Final at Nailsea & Backwell Rugby Club.  Bits and Pieces were runners up and Redhill Club 3rd.
















Congratulations to Marie Young and Gavin Lane from Mixtures for winning the Pairs Final on Saturday.  They also had the highest score of the competition with 95.  Andy Capern and Nick Carlier from Kingston were Runners Up.  It was a very close final with only 1 pin in it.








Charity Voting - teams are asked to vote for the Charities who they wish to receive funding from the League for the 2026 Season by Friday 28th August.  Our Treasurer, Dennis, has confirmed there is enough funds to repeat what we did last year and give our 4 top voted charities £1,000 each.  Winning Charities will again be asked to come to our Presentation Evening on Saturday 26th September to receive their funding and tell us all a bit about the important work they do.   To help teams vote I have created a printable voting form for them to use if they wish - click here.  There are 11 very worthy Charities to choose from (16 choices were received - 4 were not registered charities and 1 was too far away).  They are also shown on our Charity Page, where you can find out all about them - click here.  

Our superb Singles Competition on Friday 10th July at Nailsea Social Club raised a terrific total of £637.45 for our Charities .  A huge thank you to Sharon (Williams) for all the work put in, both on the night and before obtaining great prizes for the raffle.  Many thanks to everyone who helped on the evening too.  A Major thank you to the Nailsea Social Club for being such great hosts.  And of course, many thanks to all that attended.  Congratulations to Aaron Jenkins of Dambusters for winning the competition.  I hope Aaron will join the Interleague Team again this year.  And congratulations to Nick Snook of Bits & Pieces for coming runner up.
