Winter League
The Winter League Management Committee is to meet on Wednesday 5 March to discuss and finalise a number of proposals. Not least of these is the matter of the bids from teams to Decline Promotion or Avoid Relegation.
Teams who have finished in the promotion or relegation places in the final League Tables have the right under new General Rule 15 to ask not to be promoted or relegated this year. The Management Committee will consider each bid in turn and decide whether they will support such bids on an individual basis.
There have been four such bids received to date and teams have until Friday 28 February to submit any further ones. Of the four bids received, two are asking to decline promotion and two are seeking to avoid being relegated.
Other business to be conducted includes
Possible rotation of Divisions and Host Greens
Sponsorship of the Winter Cup and Pairs KO to support the introduction of a cash prize for the winners
New teams and new host green for 2025-26 season
Proposed rule changes
Finalising arrangements for the two End-of-Season parties
Arrangements for the Winter Cup Finals Day
