Week 6 - Rain Stops Play.
Rain prevented play in any of our matches this weekend so the league table is unchanged. We believe the last time that no play was possible at all in a weekend was 2023. The positions after week 6 determine the seedings for the knock-out cup competition with the preliminary round taking place next week. So the top 13 places in the league table have byes and the remaining 38 are drawn for the preliminary round as follows 14 v 51, 13 v 50 etc. Each round will take place every fortnight with 50% of Winsley matches needing a result for it to stand otherwise the reserve week will be used.

Chairman’s xi (Charlie holton) V GreenMachine (Darren OConnor)
Dexters dynamos (Dexter holton) V Western Force (Nadeem Ahmed)
