Veterans League
The 4-match Preliminary Round of the Julie Fuller Trophy was played yesterday with no real surprise results. The only match where the higher handicapped team won through was when Division 3 side Primrose Hill Lib beat Linthwaite Hall from Division 2. But seeing as Linthwaite Hall have only ever won 2 matches in the League this reversal is hardly viewed as a shock result.
There is just one bye in Round 1 as the 2022 winners of this competition, Clayton West, go through to Round 2 as the Lindley Lib 'B' team has withdrawn. All the results from the Preliminary Round are below along with the revised draw for the 32 teams in Round 1 which takes place on Friday 26 May.
