Skittles

Also known as Hood or Table Skittles. Northamptonshire skittles is a classic pub game. 

The game’s ancestor is Old English alley skittles which is still played in London and the West Country.

This version takes up a lot less space while retaining all the excitement and skill and has been popular for decades across the counties of Northamptonshire, Leicestershire and Derbyshire. 

The hood skittles table surface stands at thigh height with the top of the hood reaching fully six feet high.  The tabletop is made of wood with a leather covering.  The rear or the table sports the trademark hood which has robust netting.  Members of the Club compete in a number of local Leagues on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings.
