As you can imagine, the new fixtures have raised a few eyebrows. Sorry everyone, it's all a sharp learning-curve for me.
Long story short, I have redrawn the fixtures to prevent too much grouping of home/away games. Some didn't mind, some did. The season hasn't started, so I thought it best to just even this out.
Here is the new draw for league fixtures!
I will remove the other post shortly, so there is no confusion.
Here are the league fixtures for the 2021/22 Winter League. Due to the number of tables that are shared by 2 teams and in some cases across 2 divisions, it has meant that there are some 'clumps' of home and away matches for some teams.
I will draw the cup games soon and will also anounce the draws for all remaining cup fixtures from the semi-cancelled 2019 season. To confirm, the leagues were cancelled, but seeing as the cups were close to completion (Cup KO, singles, double, ladies, mixed & vets), they will be finished as soon as I confirm who was left.
Also, I will produce a printer friendly version ASAP.
As most of you should now be aware, the Maidstone Pool League is now due to restart on
Monday 4th October 2021
We have had a good response from teams wanting to continue, therefore we are maintaining our 2 league format. The AGM will be held @ Civil Service Club on
Monday 6th September 2021
Team registration will be between 19:45 - 20:30 with the AGM beginning @ 20:45.
I'll be taking over from Stacey Dunk's duties moving forward. Please, when you see him, buy him a beer and say thanks for the excellent effort he has put in over the years.
Bertie will still be your main point of contact regarding any questions about the league. Captains should already have his contact details.
For now, you can send a picture of the results team sheet to me "Daniel Mark Purton" on Facebook Messenger. I can pass out my phone number at the AGM for any team who doesn't use the app.
By sending me a picture of a completed sheet, I'll be able to post win percentages for each player in the league. I will disclose the top 20 on fortnightly basis on the Facebook Group and here on the website, assuming I get the data required to do it.
It's been a long wait to get restarted, and I know Lashings 'B' are raring to go ;)
See you all soon,
Daniel Purton
Sorry for not getting back sooner. Having just spoken to Bertie, it has been decided that there is not sufficient committment or confidence to restart the season at this point. It appears that out of the 22 teams, only about half would be prepared to play.
Regarding the knockouts, the situation is the same. There are teams/players involved who are not in a position to committ to playing at the moment.
We will therefore not be restarting any of the competitions at the moment. We will look at options when confidence returns, but can give no timescale at this point.
He is hoping to confirm within the next few days, but is still waiting to hear from some teams. As soon as I know, I'll let you know. Cheers.
