Summer League 2024

The summer league starts on 22nd May 2024 this year, and because last year we started the winter season later than normal (late October) due to a longer summer season, we have reformatted the divisions to allow us to finish at the end of August this year.

With 21 teams registered, we looked at the 22 from last year and split them up as below with teams dropping out and 3 new(ish) teams coming in.

Here is the new structure

EARL SHILTON CC

LORD NELSON
Black Horse is new summer team as is Lord Nelson and Earl Shilton as less than 6 players transferred from the ESCC from last summer. Top 2 teams from division 2 moved up to division 1 and join the top 5 from last season. The rest all filtered down to the other divisions depending on the final standings.

Unfortunately due to the small amount of tables used across the 21 teams (14 share a table), it has meant that the scheduling on games has been hard to allow for home and away games each week for all teams, so we will have some clumps of home and aways (i.e. 2 aways followed by 2 homes, sometimes 3) but hopefully you understand that this format will be more of a benefit to everyone, including an extra division winner to play for and entry into the champions cup.

Also we do have bye weeks still but only allowed for 1 in each division, so we don’t get teams having several weeks without a game.

So enjoy the new season and good luck!

Welcome to the new website

Fixtures, results, league tables and more to come

At the end of the 2019/20 Winter Season we had to close the old website down due to the rising costs, as such the old web address duntonbassettskittles.com is now owned by someone else and the website has gone.

With the new season upon us, we have now rebuilt it under the address dbskittles.com, and are looking to improve it over time.

Current Features

  • Full set of league fixtures
  • Fixtures per team on team page
  • Results shown on team page and league page
  • League Tables
  • Venue details with map

On the homepage you will now find a full list of all the scheduled fixtures over the 3 divisions for the next week. If you click on one it will take you to the details of the match (mainly which division and the venue).

If you click an individual team on the fixture or league table, it will take you to their team page, which currently shows the full set of fixtures of that team for the season. Click date to sort earliest to the end.

The home page also shows the top of each league table per division, you can select the full table from here and also in the top menu under ‘League Tables’.
