Winter League start dates

Winter League


The Winter League has matches 4-days a week right through the Autumn and Winter months. The publication of the fixture programmes is not too far away now. Last week we published the make-up of the eight divisions for the 2024-25 season. We are now able to publish the starting dates for each division. The start date for each division is set by the host club as these vary depending on the end-of-summer season maintenance programme that is different for each club.


The eight host clubs have now all finalised their work programmes and notified the League of the first dates that the 2024-25 fixture programme can start. These are all set out in the table below. Normally this will result in a 14-week playing season with a two-week break over the Christmas & New Year holiday period.


The Division 4 fixtures have another date when the green is not available due to key personnel being away at that time. This is Monday 4 November when there will be no Division 4 fixtures at Primrose Hill Lib extending the League season to run over 15-weeks at that venue excluding the Christmas fortnight.


We have tagged on to the end of each division's fixture season one more usual weekly date for the Winter Cup Qualifying Round that each Division provides. This date is subject to change as the season progresses and circumstances overtake the early intentions. With 8 qualifying division days in action the last two bowlers from each qualifying event will progress through to the 16-player Finals Day which this year will be played at Netherton Con on a date still to be agreed.
