Wed 19th Mar
At the EGM yesterday (18th March) the method of playing twice if necessary was determined so that up to 2 players could play twice in a match in the bottom division only, being named by the relevant captain before the match commences and those players must play in the first 4. The usual deduction of 5 points will apply and that result will not go towards the players averages.
An addition to the rule was also voted in that those players having to play a player who is playing twice could have a 10 minute "roll up" if they wanted to.
The draw was made for the Eric Dobson doubles with a reminder that all matches would be on Thursdays
It was agreed to hold the mixed pairs competition mid season
The 2025 fixtures are now "live" . Could all clubs ensure their player lists are updated before the start of matches.
Mon 24th Feb
As discussed at the AGM it was strongly suggested that all bowlers should carry a form in their Bowl's Bag in case of an emergency.
There is now a tab which allows printing of a suggested form on the side of this website.
It could save your life!
All Captains please encourage your team members to carry the form in their Bowl's Bag

The League in conjunction with the Barlows League will operate using one Bank Account but still with 2 balance sheets produced
The Application for membership part of the Constitution has been altered to allow New Clubs longer to apply to join the League and Clubs already in the League until March 7th to either apply to enter extra teams or withdraw existing teams
We currently have no League headline sponsor.
The pre Season Executive Meeting will be on March 18th to distribute Scorecards etc and do the draw for the MDSCBL Doubles . Venue to be advised
There will be a short EGM prior to that to vote on the procedure for players playing twice.
