The replay dates for games affected by yesterday's heat will be by the 30th January, 2021. If they are played before hand well and good

The replays of Shipley and Cashmore Leagues washed out in last week's storm will be by 20th December, 2020

Just a word of warning there are a number of Competitions which are drawn to play on 19th December (Daisley, Bergan West, Leonard West & South, Catt West and Cashmore South). These games can be played as a Midweek game, provided they are played by 19th December. There will be no extension to this date.
