Coaching and Practice sessions
September 24, 2010 — adminCoaching starts next Monday 27th September – see Coaching for more details.
We also have a list of probable Practice evenings.
New season starts 20th September 2010
September 17, 2010 — adminFirst off is Monday’s match between North Meols B and Southport C. You might be excused for wondering how that is possible looking at last season’s final league tables: North Meols B were promoted from division 2 and Southport C were relegated. However, in their places, two of the sides promoted from division 3 were North Meols C and Southport D, and since then both clubs have radically restructured their teams. The result is unpredictable, to say the least.
Next up, Southport A entertain St Teresa’s D, and again the result is hard to call. Southport’s first match means an immediate call-up for first reserve Jonathan Cummins against a St Teresa’s line-up which may be affected by the withdrawal of their C team from the first division.
On Wednesday, the all-junior Southport E team takes on North Meols D, a family affair which normally includes Dennis and Val Morley and their grandson Oliver Moir, while Argyle C play hosts to a somewhat weakened Southport F team, which has lost Alan Town to the D team.
A revamped Southport B includes three juniors from last season’s C team; their improvement over the season came too late to save them from being relegated, but we hope it will be enough to keep them up this time. The B team will have to share the hall with the much changed Southport D, choosing from Alan Town, Jeff Cummins, Tom Taylor, Ken Ray and Kamil Zadroga.
Best wishes to all the teams for the coming season!

Colin Fyles is new club champion!
July 9, 2010 — admin
Colin Fyles holding the Bertrand Travis Cup after beating Paul Lunan in the club championships
With no time to play the last match on Sunday, Colin Fyles and Paul Lunan had to play the final of the club championship competition on Thursday evening.
On a very warm evening, each player needed only 15 minutes warm up before squaring up to each other. After a very cagey start from both players (the first set lasted almost 7 minutes and finally went to Colin 11-9), Colin found his backhand flick/smash to be the most effective way to win points and Paul had no answer as Colin raced ahead to take the next two sets 11-5, 11-7.
The win was a true reflection of Colin’s form throughout the competition and confirms his number 1 rank in the club.
His name has now been added to this illustrious list of previous winners:
