Welcome to the Parkside Electrical Stafford Sunday Pool League Web site. This site has been up and running since November 2004. If you are interested in joining the League or have a general question you can send an email to the League Secretary.

Stafford Sunday made hard work of their recent league match away at Just Power Plus Baize. Wins for Mike Barker, Alan Simm, Steve Finney, Kev Brown and Tom Tonna gave the Stafford side a perfect start and a 5-0 lead. But some missed chances in the next 4 frames presented the home side with a way back into the match and they duly obliged to go into the interval trailing 5-4.

Second wins on the night for Kev and Steve (break and dish) took the Stafford boys to 7-4 at the start of the second half. There were subsequent wins for Mick Addison and Gaz Baker in between frames going to players in the Stoke team. With two frames to play, the score stood at 9-7 to Stafford with Simon Key and Dave Barker hoping to secure victory for the team and, after some nervous tactical battles, they both delivered wins to leave the final scoreline at 11-7 to Stafford Sunday.

The victory keeps Stafford Sunday in joint top place with Afford Baize in the Premier League and nicely sets up their clash at Stafford Rileys next month with both teams eyeing up the one promotion place on offer.

You may have noticed some enhancements to the look and feel of the website over recent weeks. Some of these changes are listed below:

• the top horizontal menu now has drop-down lists of options added to some items to speed up access to pages
• the Knockout Rounds page has clickable rows (best viewed with Javascript running) to view further details of each round as well as a new Draw Sheet that displays the whole tournament from 1st to final round on one page
• the Summer League pages (Fixtures, Results, Tables, Averages and 8-Balls) also make use of clickable rows where appropriate as well as providing statistics at team, match and player level
• individual frame results for a match, eg Rileys Rebels vs Bear and Pheasant A, can be viewed by clicking on a match in the Results page
• the lists of Fixtures and Results can be limited to a certain Team or Match Date
• the Teams item on the left-hand vertical menu contains pages to view the lists of Teams, Venues and Players participating in the current season (Summer League)
• the data in the Teams, Players and Averages pages can be re-sorted by clicking on one of the underlined column headings
• the new online Match Card allows the result of recently played team matches (league and cup) to be sent to the League Secretary without delay

The Winter League sections of the website will be re-styled in a similar manner once the Summer League has finished.

The League is affiliated to the English Pool Association and has two periods of competition. The Winter League currently runs with 3 divisions and also includes a team knockout competition. This is followed by the Singles and doubles knockout competitions. The Summer League follows where teams of all abilities compete against each other during the group stage.

The League is currently sponsored by Parkside Electrical and Disks & Discs Computer Games Store. More information can be found on the Sponsors page.

Trophies are awarded to all winners and runners-up at the annual presentation evening. See the Roll of Honour page for a full list of the current trophy holders as well as the winners from past years.

The Stafford Sunday Pool League currently has 2 representative teams competing in the Staffordshire Inter-league competition where the full set of World Rules are played. The Inter-league offers 2 opportunities (through League and Cup) for teams to play in the national finals at Great Yarmouth.
