The draws for the Men's League Cup A and B and the Ladies' League Cup are now available through the Tournaments link on the Homepage.

Teams involved in Round 1 should play by 31 December. In Round 1, the higher-named team in each tie is at home, then in Round 2 the lower-named team is at home. The home team captain should offer the away team captain at least one reasonable date for the tie, bearing in mind existing league fixtures. If the teams are due to meet in a league match before the closing date for the round in question, a "double-header' is permitted with the agreement of both captains.

Once you have agreed the date, please notify the League Sec at northumbriasquash@gmail.com so that League Master can be updated.

Finaly a reminder that in Cup matches:

i) normal nomination / team order rules apply;

ii) playing up does not count towards becoming tied to a higher team under rule 5.2;

iii) appearances by top-5 players do not count towards the minimum number of league appearances required to avoid penalties under rule 4.7;

iv) all costs are shared equally between the two teams.
