Cabaret Night Cancelled.

Due to lack of ticket sales we have cancelled the Cabaret Night that was due to take place on Saturday 22nd of October there will be a full refund on returned tickets. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.
We have lined up a fabulous group The Classics in the bar and we are sure that anyone turning up will not be disappointed.



The Cask Marque and CAMRA groups are hosting the National Cask Ale Week between 1st & 9th October.

We have decided to take part in this event supplementing our permanent range of ale with up to 8 extra guest ales.

As with all Cask Marque accredited outlets there will be a chance to sample a small taster to tempt your taste buds into buying a few pints.
For further details please ask Mark or Nathan behind the bar or look at the blackboards.
Some of the ales that will be on offer:

Golden Sheep Ale 3.9%
Naked Gold Ale 4%
Bombardier Ale 4.1%
S A Bitter 4.2%
Hobgoblin 4.5%

Committee Vacancies.

There are currently three casual vacancies on the Committee. Volunteers are asked to put their names forward to help steer the club to a secure and bright future. This is a task for people with time to commit, especially at weekends (But not necessarily every weekend!). It is a task for people who believe in our great club and all it stands for. It is a task for the dedicated and not for the faint hearted.
If you are interested and have been a member since before the first of April 2011, please see the General Secretary for more details. All these vacancies are open to both men and women members.

Mini Tote.

Ticket sales have been slow the past few weeks so we are taking this opportunity to remind members they can win a fantastic £150 for a 50p stake. Tickets are on sale every lunchtime and on Friday and Sunday nights from the welfare table. At all other times they are on sale from behind the bar. The draw is made Sunday at 1pm and you can check the results on our Facebook page.

Race Night August 27th.

After all expenses were paid out we raised £60 for children in need. We thank the few people that supported us on the night. MG who has still to claim their prize won the race card, which we ran in conjunction with the night. If the prize remains unclaimed it will be added to the CIN fund


The Young Team.


Jay Cattell 21 Garry Matthews 20, Dan Byrne 17 and Connor Singleton 14 have got together and formed a team to play in the Northampton Town Snooker League. They are playing as Kingsley C come along on Tuesday nights and give them your support.
It is good to see the youngsters getting involved, as they are our future.
Our pool ladies darts and ladies skittle teams have also got a few youngsters representing them.

Games News

Kingsley’s darts team were well beaten in the final at Corby by Irthingbourgh. Although Kev Brown gave us a good start by winning the first two legs we just could not get going. Kev hit a couple of 140’s Dan Eaton had 5 scores over 120 and had the highest score on the night with 145. Steve Burgess had a couple of tons Don Ward had two 140’s and four more scores of 100 or over and Martin Gamble had six scores of 100 or more and all lost their games along with Jeff Billingham. Jim Fowell did not play his legs, as the match had already been lost.

It was a much closer match in the final of the Cribbage with Kingsley narrowly loosing their final.

Kenny Andrews was also unlucky in the regional finals of the poker. He tells us if he had not played his final hand and had hung on for 30 seconds he would have finished in the top 10 and would have qualified for the next phase. But 11th place out of the hundreds of players is a honourable achievement.
