Or why not have a 'single' column of Year and then just change the value
of the year for each year record/item

With a separate table per year, among other issues, what if you
want/need to add an extra data column to the table, you now have to do
it for each year table to ensure they are all consistent.

It just seems that you are going to have a maintenance & update
nightmare ahead of you.

Another good idea to not separate your tables
