Tattibogoes
During a snooker match late one summer night in July 1991, Ali Hunt, Ian Collins, & Martyn Reid discussed the possibility of forming a skittle team. Confident that they could persuade enough of their friends to play, they each proposed numerous names for the new teams identity, but struggled to find one that they could agree on. Their discussion was overheard by the captain of the snooker team, Bob McCann, who strolled over and proposed in his strong Scottish accent...."The Tattibogoes”. Liking what they heard, they registered the name for the 1991/92 season.
In their inaugural season they finished with a run of thirteen straight victories to become Division 6 champions. This success has continued with The Tattibogoes winning each league at their first attempt, including Division One at the end of season 1996/97, and after successfully defending the title during Season 2022/23, they won the Championship for the fifteenth time, surpassing Bartonsham 'B's long standing record.
