Winter League 2026-27
Registration ClosedRegistration for Winter League 2026-27 is now closed.
Existing and new teams are now invited to register for the upcoming Central Herts Pool League Winter Season. League night is Tuesdays and we play to International Rules. Teams can play from venues located within a 30 minute drive time of Frank's Pool Club in Hatfield - new venues welcome! (If your venue is borderline on the drive time boundary, contact Greig Martens or Claire Morris to discuss options).
As well as the team league, we also run team cup competitions and a number of individual competitions for eligible league players (e.g. Open Singles, Divisional Singles, Ladies Singles, Doubles) across the season. At the end of the season we host a Finals Day and Presentation/End of Season Celebration.
The season will commence in September, exact date will be dependent on number of teams registered (and therefore the number of playing weeks required for the season) but be prepared to play from 1st September. The registration fee is £80 per team, payable by bank transfer to the league bank account - bank details given during the registration process.
Registration is a 2-step process: 1) Register team on RackEmApp (our league management software) 2) Pay!
If you would like to register a team to play from a venue that is new to the league, use the Contact Us link to get in touch so we can get all the details for the venue loaded up into RackEmApp, ready for you to register your team. Contact Us
Once the venue is available on RackEmApp, you can register the team via the 'Register Team' button at this link: League Homepage
Registration Instructions for existing teams:
1. Click on the Register Team button on the following link: League Homepage
2. Scroll down to the Team Details section of the reg page. If you are keeping the same team name, don’t make any changes to either Team Name or Parent Team. If you are changing Team Name, update only the Team Name box and keep Parent Team the same as last year’s team name (I’ll make sure everything is linked properly in the back end of the system)
3. If you are already a registered Rackemapp player, search for your name in the Captain Name box. (If not, click on New Captain and enter details accordingly).
4. Select the venue you will be playing from next season (if it’s new you will need to wait for confirmation that I’ve created the venue in Rackemapp before you can do this stage).
5. Select the table you will be using. For venues with 1 table, they are all named the same as the venue, pick that one. For venues with multiple tables pick the one you were playing on last season, or any other available table, and we will sort out table allocations once all teams have registered. Let me know if any problems.
6. Tick the Terms and Conditions box
7. Click on Next
8. Review your player list. You can delete any that are not continuing to play for your team next season. You can also register new players to your team here - search for their name in the search box first - this bit is really important, if they are already on Rackemapp select them from the list that appears when you search. If they are not yet on Rackemapp you can add a New Player.
9. Make a note of the bank details for £80 team fee payment (screenshot them if needed). Payment is required by Monday 17th August. Please note the bank account name remains St Albans & District Pool League for now. Bank details are also in the description of this group chat for future reference.
