Veterans League
There are 29 entries in the Veterans League Over-70's KO this year which is down on last year's 32 entrants and way down on the 2022 total of 39 entrants. Both of last year's finalists are among that 29 as Lowerhouses' bowler Graham Hirst defends his title with the 2023 runner-up, Stuart Greaves (New Mill) in the other half of the draw.
The Preliminary Round will be played on two greens, Marsh United and Lindley BC, on Thursday 25 April and the split of bowlers over those two greens is below. This is not the draw which will be made on matchday.
