CALLING all cribbage players: cribbage is a traditional card game which is played and enjoyed all over the world.

It is a game of skill that dates back to the early 17th century in England.

The Trowbridge cribbage winter league is due to begin in early November but so far only three pub teams have registered.

At least six teams are needed to form a league and as there are 31 pubs in Trowbridge it would be such a shame if this old tradition died out.

A team is made up of at least six players and including a captain. The games take place every Tuesday, with an 8.30pm start and usually run on until 10 pm.

If you think your pub could gather a worthy team together and pick up some trophies, cups, shields and even prize money then give Gordon Nicholls a ring on (01225) 769921.
