Summer 2016 – Week 1 Results

A SAD LOSS: It is also a sad week as Harwell RBL B lost Ellis Downes, the young lad who drowned at the weekend. Our condolences to the family, friends and the teams. Matches for both A & B teams will be rescheduled.


ONLINE SCORECARDS: So it was the first week and with a lot of prodding by the Committee we have most scorecards in and posted. BUT, you know who you are, some are not entering online and are trying to play players that aren’t registered and some aren’t putting the MATCH ID on the top of the card and some aren’t posting afterwards. PLEASE make it easy for you and easy for us by:- registering players before playing them, getting your card online, getting your match id on the card and posting the card to arrive by SATURDAY. Doing this makes it far less onerous for the Committee to manage the leagues.  If you are having any issues contact us and we’ll do our best to sort you out.

We want as many people playing the game so we don’t want to start having to fine teams (or disqualifying matches or worst case, kick teams out) for not following the rules that everyone has signed up to follow. Losing Captains/Secretaries have a duty here to check as well and poke if necessary ! Thank you.

WE START THIS WEEK ! Summer Season 2016

We start the 57th Summer Season this week and the forecast is warming up just like our beloved game!

Thank you for those Secretaries who’ve asked for spelling corrections on player names. Next year please print better on the form! 😉

I also hope you’ve all checked you can still login and get the match card up – it won’t load properly yet as we’re not open for cards until match night but you should get a message.

Encourage those in your teams to sign up to the newsletter (so they get these updates) and like, follow and subscribe to our facebook, twitter and youtube channels!

You know it’s good when you hear the wood!

Roll on Summer!

G Section IMPORTANT FIXTURE CHANGES

G Section may be only the ‘little guys’* with only 5 teams in the section but they now have a packed fixture list for a 20 week season giving them the chance of more games and a ‘full’ season of games.

The new fixture list is available here.

Secretaries/Captains of the teams please make these known to your players and landlords/ladies/stewards hosts.

Summer League 2016 – Final Check

All the teams and player names are now in the online scoring system (thanks James/Paul) so please tell your Secretaries to check the players (and spelling!) and email if corrections are needed. You should also have received your fixture packs including new scorecards with the new Dolly Recorder’s address on (don’t use old scorecards please!) but the fixture list etc is of course available for download and printing from the website.

All team Secretaries should also try to login to ensure they are ready to enter their first winning game! Note the password reset option will only work if your username has a valid email address! Contact us if you have problems  as any teams not entering their cards online may be subject to disqualification subject to a Committee decision.

Last but not least………The G Section will have a separate fixture list as there are only 5 teams there. This will be posted online later.

On behalf of the players many thanks to Tosh but also to his other helpers in the background that help him with rolls, chairs, tables, pitch, dolls and raffle cards every week to make this Winter league the success it is.

Summer League 2016 – it all starts on Star Wars Day!

May4th.jpgFor those of you who don’t know the Summer League is starting on the 4th May (May the Fourth be with you!) – I know, but you won’t forget it now will you!

We’re putting the finishing touches to the competition and fixture lists and they’ll be going to the printers very soon then we distribute them by hand to the venues.

We have 61 teams registered this year and that means a full Premier/A and F section (10 teams), sections B,C,D, E have one bye and section G is made up of 5 teams twice over so they get plenty of Aunt Sally! We did it this way rather than confuse things with an 11 team fixture with a longer season.

We’ve also got a new sponsor this year in Matthew Tutty Plumbing & Heating so many thanks for supporting us this season Matthew!
