Season 2024-2025
 
Update .. w/c 20th January
 
We're getting towards the business end of the season now with just four games remaining after last Friday's round of matches .. Wymeswold extended their lead again at the top of the table after a convincing 4-0 win away at Syston Cons A while their nearest challengers, Syston Cons B, could only manage a 3-1 victory away to Queniborough Wanderers .. meanwhile, Syston Social Club's efforts to reel in the two leaders were frustrated by a postponed game against Sileby Workos A who were unable to field a side .. this game will be rearranged although a date is yet to be agreed .. Barrow Cons finally posted their first home win of the season at the seventh attempt while the Carington 'derby' finished in a 2-2 stalemate .. full results and match reports on the "Weekly Results" page.

Christmas Raffle
The Christmas Raffle did not take place 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
The last remaining subscription appears to have finally been received .. 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.
