Winter League


The need to accommodate some rearranged League matches has had a knock-on effect on some Winter Cup Qualifying Round dates previously published. Below is a table with all the latest playing and closing dates which are replicated on our Bowlsnet pages. We have received 33 entries to date and the table below will show you how many days you have got to your division's closing date.

Finals Day - 1.00pm Sunday 6 April 2025 at Netherton Con


Handicaps

The only handicapping in the qualifying rounds is that Inter-District and County bowlers play off -1 otherwise everyone else starts on scratch.

Scratch - Inter-District and County bowlers +1 - Division 1 and Division 2 bowlers

+2 - Division 3 and Division 4 bowlers

+3 - Division 5 and Division 6 bowlers

Home bowlers will be additionally penalised for the Round of the Last 16 onwards by 3-2-1


Stuff you need to know
