JUST A NOTE to remind everyone that all handicaps are rounded up (in pairs or six red cup matches) where there is an "in between" handicap rating, as per last season.
For instance in the six red cup, half handicaps apply so someone normally giving -5 would give -3 (-2-and-a-half rounded up).
The original handicap chart I sent out was maybe potentially a bit confusing as I had already rounded up the six red numbers which might have resulted in some of the handicaps being distorted when compared against each other so I'll pop round with a new list to the clubs with just the bare fractions on which can be rounded up by yourselves to avoid any confusion. Thanks.

PJ'z RIPLEY No 2 ARE TEAM No 7 ON FIXTURE GRID
GOOD NEWS in that a new version of the PJ'z Ripley No 2 team has emerged to fill the bye week that was Team No 7 on the fixture grid sheet.
I have sent out updated fixture sheets, contact numbers and handicap marks to all the captains home or club addresses so please make sure you get hold of the new info before the season starts.
This now means there are no bye weeks in the Bob McCartin Cup and similarly none in the Jimmy Harper Plate later in the season so its very beneficial to all to get a full house.
The downloads have already been updated in the right hand column to include an extra team.
Don't forget also that the OMYA Cup individual qualifying matches start this week (commencing 26th September) to be played firstly amongst each of your own teams for anyone who wants to take advantage of the bonus entry this year. We need one qualifier or nominated player for each team by the next meeting on 2/11/11. Thanks.

OMYA CUP QUALIFIERS / BOB McCARTIN CUP
A REMINDER that this year the OMYA Cup Scratch Individual competition was a bonus entry with the team registration fees so everyone is eligible to play in it providing they are signed on from the outset.
PJ'z CLUB No 2 RIPLEY B
There is a week set aside (w/c September 26) to get the competition underway before the first of the team matches gets into gear and then the semi finals or finals (depending on the number of players registered) must be played before the next meeting on Wednesday November 2nd which will be at Jaxx Q Club, Belper (7.45pm).
Also the other competition entries and monies will need to be in by then too, the entry forms will go out with the fixture grids et al. It is strongly advised that players enter a few competitions this season to reduce the number of blank weeks as we currently have a few "bye" weeks in the league schedule due to PJ'z No 2 being unable to raise a team.
Also any team who comes up with 2 or more entries in all competitions (including Shootout Night) will get free registration of reserves next season so will just pay the flat registration fee. Note that 1 pair counts as 1 entry for this purpose.
Going back to the OMYA Cup, please remember this is the only competition that will be run off SCRATCH for all players this season and will firstly be played in house amongst each team to produce 1 representative each going into the main draw in November. Any player who doesn't want to play should let his opponent know ASAP and then they can move on to the next round or even bring the match forward if possible.
Due to the prospect of some absenteeism, I'll not put the draw on the results website until the 1st round proper, but this is the qualifying draw and provisional dates sorted per team:
ALL MATCHES ARE BEST OF 3 IN QUALIFICATION STAGES
Please feel free to bring forward any matches time or date-wise (utilise any walkovers) in order to meet deadline!
By the meeting of November 2nd at Jaxx Q Club each team should have a winner or nominated player for the main draw.
MATLOCK CLUB A
WINNER: Ian Rose.
EDGEFOLD MATLOCK A
WINNER: Robert Muxlow.
BOLEHILL INSTITUTE No 1 A
WINNER: Ricki Slack.
BOLEHILL INSTITUTE No 2 A
WINNER: Keith Robertson.
BOLEHILL INSTITUTE No 3 B
WINNER: Mick Bunting.
JAXX Q CLUB BELPER No 1 B
WINNER: Alex Fisher.
JAXX Q CLUB BELPER No 2 B
WINNER: Alan Kerry.
BELPER STRUTT CLUB No 2 B
WINNER: Steve Buckley.
PJ’z CLUB RIPLEY No 1 A
WINNER: Ben Monk.
BELPER STRUTT CLUB No 1 A
WINNER: Steve Bullock or Wayne Shooter.
MATLOCK GOLF CLUB B
WINNER: Graham Jones.
PJ'z CLUB No 2 RIPLEY B
As a late entrant hopefully the team can either organise a mini tournament amongst themselves or nominate a player before the meeting on 2/11/11.
As the bye week has provisionally been filled, some OMYA Cup dates will need to be shifted from those on the original drawsheet, please find a convenient slot if affected.
The opening team matches will be week commencing October 3rd with the first group phases of the Bob McCartin Six Red Cup competition followed by the league proper the following week.
Just to confirm, the Bob McCartin Cup will be played over 7 frames per match with 4 singles frames and 3 scotch doubles (alternate shots). And of course six reds per frame. Half of usual handicaps to apply.
Each player is limited to 1 singles match and 2 doubles matches per night (same pairing cannot be used twice).
The top 2 teams will qualify from each group with the 2 best third placed teams.
Group A: Jaxx Q Club Belper No 1, Edgefold Club Matlock, PJ'z Club Ripley No 2, PJ'z Club Ripley No 1.
Group B: Bolehill Inst No 1, Belper Strutt Club No 1, Belper Strutt Club No 2, Jaxx Q Club Belper No 2.

REGISTRATION MEETING DATE
THE SNOOKER LEAGUE REGISTRATION MEETING for the 2011/2012 season will be held at Belper Strutt Club (6 Campbell Street DE56 1AP) on Tuesday August 30th @ 7.45pm.
CLICK HERE to download your entry form now! Go to "file" menu and then "print PDF" or alternatively you can save it to your computer and then print it.
All teams wishing to compete next season should attend with their registration form and entry fees (£7.50 per player up to 4 and £2 per extra player).
If registering extra players, it is also possible to pay for these along with your match fees later in the season for convenience, so the minimum initial payment is effectively £30 per team.
This will include more than in previous years, the Capts Cup fee is included this time instead of paying separately, as is the newly formed Six Red Cup team event and there will also be a Plate for 1st and 2nd round losers in the Capts Cup so there are less blank weeks.
Plus there is bonus entry into the OMYA Cup Individual Scratch competition which will be played early season in house amongst each team so as one representative each goes into the main draw.
And there will be a play-off for the top four teams in each Division at the end of the season with each divisional representative playing each other in the Grand Final.
The website registration too which was on a free one season trial basis last year is also included.
Plus theres the usual voluntary competitions like the Open Handicap, B Individual, Pairs Handicap and Hartshorne Cup.
As well as a Shootout style Night most likely just prior to Christmas with the theme being on some fun novelty events that really anyone could win on the night. So plenty to look forward to!!
A couple of the competitions will most likely be drawn at the meeting itself so its important that the names are in by this date, otherwise you could miss out on some of the events.
So if you can't make the meeting let me know at bolehillsec@yahoo.co.uk or give me a ring on 07890 985830 and will sort something out as regards collecting the form and monies - I've added the option to pay online via Paypal too (see top right) if you find it easier to do it that way but don't forget to send in the form too!!
The updated league snooker rules from the AGM are also on the results website too HERE as of now. Cheers Rick.

WHERE WE ARE STRUTTING OUR STUFF!
JUST to avoid confusion, not sure how many people immediately noticed but Belper Strutt Club (where we hold our team entry meeting on Tuesday August 30 @ 7.45pm, see above) is actually based at 6 Campbell Street DE56 1AP not Strutt Street as it originally said on the entry form.
Strutt Street is actually the street above where Belper Royal British Legion is based so hopefully they will kindly forward any lost souls who may have come from afar!
I hope the committee did realise this when they re-named the club, only joking of course lol. But certainly had me fooled (not too difficult)!
Any further downloads will have the correct address on anyhow!! Cheers Rick.
