Good morning everyone,

Following another record-breaking year of entries, we’re pleased to confirm that the groups for the Winter 2025–26 season have now been finalised. Once the summer competitions conclude, fixtures and league tables will be published.

Due to an uneven number of entries, some divisions—primarily in the South, with a few in Central—will include byes. We’re actively seeking late entries to help fill these gaps before the season begins. If you or someone you know is interested, please contact Steve Gibbs on 07880 825087 for assistance with registration.

We expect fixtures to be available online by 5th September, with the league officially kicking off on 18th September.

As part of the registration process, we asked for your preference regarding the International and LDPL rulesets. Based on your responses, we can confirm that the existing structure will remain in place:

  • Elite divisions (Premier and Championship) will continue under the International ruleset
  • All other divisions will follow the LDPL ruleset

Thank you all for your continued support in what we proudly believe to be the largest pool league in the UK!

Best regards,
LDPL Committee
