U14 competition: Important changes

Unfortunately Kibworth and Holt & West Norfok have had to withdraw from the U14 event.

As a result Pools B and D will now merge to form a single, four-team group consisting of Basildon, Becket Blues, Letchworth, and Westcliff. All of these teams existing matches will still take place at the same time as previously arranged, but each team will now have one extra game. The games in this new, enlarged, Pool B will be:

11:30 - Letchworth v Becket Blues (Pitch 2) and Basildon v Westcliff (Pitch 3)
12:10 - Becket Blues v Westcliff (Pitch 2) and Basildon v Letchworth (Pitch 3)
12:30 - Letchworth v Westcliff (Pitch 2) and Basildon v Becket Blues (Pitch 3)

There will also be changes to the timings and structure of the knock out stages:

Cup Competition
  • The top two teams from the enlarged Pool B will be joined by the winners of Pools A and C
  • The semi finals, will now be at 14:10 instead of 14:30
  • The 3rd place play-off will now be at 14:50
  • The final will be at 15:30

Plate Competition

  • The plate competition will now be decided by a three team group consisting of the runners up from Pools A and C and the third placed side from Pool B
  • Matches will be played on Pitch 2 at 13:50, 14:30, and 15:10

Bowl Competition

  • The bowl competition will also now be decided by a three team group consisting of the third placed sides from Pools A and C and the fourth placed side from Pool B
  • Matches will be played on Pitch 3 at 13:50, 14:30, and 15:10

All of these amendments have now been incorporated into the tournament plans and accessible through the links in the column on the right.
