CARDIFF & DISTRICT SNOOKER ASSOCIATION

All of the present league committee other than the league chairman have confirmed that they will be stepping down from their duties for next season. We’re all grateful for the contribution the committee members have made, particularly to Spence and Kevin who have undertaken various roles over many years.

However this leaves the league in a precarious position for next season, and nominations are needed for the league committee. It is planned for the AGM to be held soon after the end of the season so please put yourselves forward as soon as possible.
