Please stick to this timetable because the delays escalate as we move through the competition; let James Weymouth know if you are or expect to be delayed beyond the deadline. In exceptional cases where matches are held up the result can be decided by the toss of a coin.
The winners of Draw 1 play the winners of Draw 2 in the final. Losers from the 1st round will automatically be entered into the Consolation Competition.
