"Good Afternoon All, I hope you are well.
Just a quick note to say we will now issue the BARLA National Cup draw on Monday. There are still some teams who have not yet paid!!
Please note that teams will need to be flexible in and around the February period.
There is the North West Community Lions Trial on weekend of 14th February so teams effected by that will be allowed to move their games to the following week.
Also, any games in Round One or the Preliminary Round scheduled for the 15th February that are lost to any inclement weather/unplayable pitches will be moved to the following week.
Apologies for the slight delay but the draw will be with you on Monday.
Have a great weekend."
