The Monkstone PC Super League was inaugurated in 2020 when, due to the Coronavirus restrictions, it was not possible for the WPA National League to take place. The partial lifting of restrictions in the Autumn of 2020 allowed this intra-club competition to be held for the first time.
Even though the WPA National League recommenced in 2021, the Super League had been such a success that it was decided to continue with it as an annual competition.
The 2024/25 edition of the competition had 48 entries resulting in 8 teams with squads of 6. The competition will commence on Mon 23 September 2024 for 7 weeks before taking a mid-winter break, recommencing on 17 February 2025 for a further 7 weeks. As last year, rather than base the teams on the existing WPA League teams as previously, eight new teams have been created with names drawn at random from the people who had entered (with some seeding) to try to give more balanced teams to encourage our non-WPA League players to take part.
The teams are Mammoths, Marlins, Marvels, Mavericks, Meerkats, Mercenaries, Misfits and Mustangs.
Results of matches must be submitted by the both Captains using the link below within 2 days of the match being played.

2024/25 SUPER LEAGUE RULES
It is intended that the Super League is competitive but above all else “friendly”. Nothing runs, however, without some rules but these have been kept to a minimum and are mainly organisational.
- The rules of the competition will be generally as the 2024 WPA League where not amended below.
- The fixtures are scheduled for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday @ 6:00pm. There is flexibility to amend the time and/or date by agreement between the teams. Fixtures may be played at any time before the scheduled time and/or date but must, however, be played by the Sunday before the next scheduled round.
- There will be break between Round 7 & 8 – Round 7 must be completed by 10 November 2024 and Round 14 must be completed by 7 April 2025.
- Because we are playing later in the year than the normal WPA league, we will need floodlights for evening games. Fixtures will, therefore, be played on Lanes 2 & 3.
- If a fixture is rearranged to another date which IS NOT a scheduled Super League night, the Super League will take precedence over any other games and will be played on Lanes 2 & 3 as above.
- Notwithstanding Rule 5 above, if a Super League game is scheduled for Monday or Friday morning it will not take precedence over the normal roll-up and will be played on Pistes 15 & 16.
- If a fixture is rearranged for another date which IS a scheduled Super League night and the scheduled fixture is taking place, the rearranged fixture will take precedence over any other non-Super League games and will be played on Lanes 5 & 6 or on Pistes 13 – 16 which also have floodlights. The “Home” team captain shall have the choice of where to play.
- If two fixtures are rearranged for another date which IS a scheduled Super League night and the scheduled fixture is taking place, the rearranged fixtures will take precedence over any other non-Super League games and will be played on Lanes 5 & 6 and on Pistes 13 – 16 which have floodlights. The “Home” team captain who is first to notify (see Rule 9) that they have rescheduled their fixture shall have the choice of where to play.
- If any fixture is rescheduled for a date/time other than the scheduled date/time, please let Bernard know so that he is kept up to date with when games are being played. He will then advise if any other fixtures are being played on that date.
- Results should be submitted via the Monkstone PC Website by both team captains using the link on the Competitions/Super League page within 2 days of the fixture taking place.
