The Wrington Vale Skittle League was formed in 1927 at a meeting held at Congresbury Memorial Hall. The first season comprised of nine teams – Congresbury, Wrington, Redhill, Burrington, Worle Village Club, Hewish, East Harptree, and Yatton some of which are still with us.
The League had been running consistently since that first season up until the Special Committee Meeting of September 11th 1939 where the minutes state that ‘Owing to the declaration of War, it was decided to cancel all fixtures and Cup Games’. The League restarted again on July 9th 1945 and has carried on until the Covid pandemic of 2019 when there was an 18 month break.

The League is missing an Inter League Trophy. It is awarded to the winner of the Wrington Vale v Nailsea Leagues on an annual basis. It was last seen when the Leagues played each other pre-Covid. Can Captains / Players check to see if their Club or Team Members have it please. Thank you.
