When the snooker club first started we experimented with an annual ladder competition. Then we introduced handicaps that have been refined each year. In the snooker handicap competitions, the player with the highest handicap starts with the difference in handicaps between the two players, whilst his opponent starts from zero. In the billiards competitions (which are only played on a handicap basis) we have always played such that the first to 125 points wins. Since 2017, players in the billiards games have each started from their handicap level (to avoid games lasting too long !).
Following a Covid-induced break from snooker the 2023 match between Gatehouse and Kirkcudbright took place on Sunday 29th January 2023 and it resulted in a resounding victory to Kirkcudbright, so again they retained the Selkirk Shield. As usual the match was played in a very friendly spirit. On behalf of the Kirkcudbright team, Paul Tebay received the Selkirk Shield from Douglas McDavid chairman of Gatehouse Snooker Club.
Our next match against Kirkcudbright will take place on a date yet to be decided.
Our next AGM date is still to be agreed

When the Gatehouse Community Centre was refurbished in 2010, one of the old classrooms was earmarked for use as a snooker room. Willie McKie was instrumental in starting the Snooker Club and was its chairman from 2010 until his death in April 2018. Here is our tribute to Willie
