The Committee are calling an Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) to be held 7:30pm Wednesday 29th October at The Horse & Groom.

In order to facilitate as many attendees as possible, this meeting will replace the first scheduled Wednesday fixture, with all planned Wednesday fixtures for the ensuing season to therefore be bumped back one week compared to the existing fixture list. (A revised fixtures list will be sent out soon).

Can all Captains (or a team member representing them) please make every effort to attend. We have cleared your fixture to enable you to have the time.

Thank you. Exeter Pool League Committee

8 October - AGM tonight at 7.30pm, Horse & Groom with league registration straight after that.

Thanks to everyone who turned up to the AGM/Registration tonight. We have nine Sunday teams and nineteen Wednesday teams so far, with a couple of 'possibles' still missing at present. If you still wish to enter a team for either day please get in touch as soon as possible as we need to sort fixtures pretty soon. We will finalise divisions next Wednesday so please make sure you let us know you want to enter before then.

Only other thing from the AGM was the removal of the coin toss for break, so you will now need to lag for break for each game.

21 September - Update from last Wednesday. Many thanks to our usual two observers. About the only thing discussed was bringing in a requirement for all league and cup matches to begin with a "lag for break" as per Rule 4 of the International Eightball Rule set we play. Just removes the option to toss for break we allowed whilst everyone got used to the rules.

Registration is still scheduled for straight after the AGM on 8th October.

14 September - reminder that the Pre-AGM will be held this coming Wednesday, 7.30pm at the Horse & Groom. If you have anything you wish to put to the AGM, please bring it , in writing, to this meeting where we will decide whether it can, or needs to, be put to the AGM. Nothing can be brought up at the AGM without being submitted to the Pre-AGM.

21 August - Following our meeting last night, these dates have been agreed. The Pre-AGM will be held on Wednesday 17th September with the AGM three weeks later on Wednesday 8th October.
