If you want to be included in one of the three teams, even on an emergency replacement basis where teams are short, let me know.

Drop in sessions run every Wednesday night to socialise and fine-tune skills. These sessions will switch to Monday nights on 8 September.

The coaching presentation by Steve Robinson, professional snooker player and coach, went well and we are considering how we go forward on a team and/or individual basis.

You are cordially invited to the Opening of the new Hulleys Arbour on Sunday 7th September. On that day we will have a Round Robin tournament to compete for the Digby Dixon trophy.

There will be a lunch interval from 12.30 to 1.30. This will be a plate sharing event hopefully outdoors. There will be free fizz and the bar will be open.
I am hoping every member of the club will try to attend so let’s have a great day.
You can sign up on the club noticeboard or text me on 07801828068 or email me at richardtaylor635@hotmail.com 
The official opening will be at 12.30 by Michelle, our President.

If you have a friend wanting to join the club please bring them along, they can play in the preliminary rounds of the competition but cannot win the ultimate prize .

Please note that all entries must be in by noon on Saturday 6th September so the draw can be made making the day easier to manage .
Looking forward to a great day
