THE Great Western Railway Club’s 4-a-side Charity Skittle Competition, sponsored by Moles Brewery, is being played again this year.

Entry forms go out tomorrow (February 1) to last year’s teams, and new forms will be available from the Club Bar, and soon on the Wednesday, Thursday and Summer skittle websites

The event is open to men’s, ladies and mixed teams; each team gets at least three games for £8 entry fee. 

All matches will be played on a Thursday or Friday night, from the first week of June.

The chosen charity is again Musgrove Leukaemic Group, so 50 per cent of the entry fee goes to the charity, plus 20p for every score of six or under, as well as the takings from the presentation night raffle.

The event has raised more than £3,000 over nine years, and the organisers hope to hit £3,500 this year.

The competition is in two parts: a round robin group stage; then the knock-out stages. 

The winner of the overall section will take the trophy and at least £100, and the runner-up will take £50, and a trophy; there will also be trophies for highest individual scores (men’s and ladies).

Entry forms must be returned to the Railway Club by April 30.

Cheques can be made out to G.W.R.S.A. (Great Western Railway Sports Association Social Club).
