PICKWICK POOL TEAM

08/01/26: The New Year started with a testing fixture away to the Bellegrove and both teams were show signs of being out of sorts after the Xmas festivities. Bedtime potted an incredible doubled black in the middle pocked off the top rail and Leighton finished up in frame 5 to give the Pickwick an early 3-2 lead. It didn't last, as the Pickwick started to throw frames away allowing the Bellegrove to take control of the match 6-4, despite Louis playing a total control pool in frame 8. The Pickwick nicked a couple of frames to level at 6-6, but that was as good as it got as our hosts completed a 9-6 win. All 5 of show added to the score sheet with Gaf stealing a brace.

The original venue.


The infamous pole that restricted cueing. Probably the MVP in the majority of the Pickwick's home match victories. Such an iconic landmark in the SE London pool scene that the pole has since become embraced as the team's logo.
