Winter League
The postponement this morning of the Thursday Division 6 fixtures at Netherton Con means that the week is a total washout for the Winter League with all 5 days of fixtures wiped out.
We did have three sets of fixtures scheduled for Wednesday and all three have now been postponed for another day. Springwood BC made the early call yesterday quickly followed by Milnsbridge BC coming to the same decision. Add to that list this morning's postponement of the Division 5 fixtures at Lindley Lib. So no bowling matches on Wednesday at all this week.
We have already lost the four sets of League matches scheduled for Monday and Tuesday and the Wednesday postponements show that the snow hasn't finished with us yet. Add to that the later postponement of the Thursday fixtures at Huddersfield RUFC and Netherton Con means that we are having a totally blank week.
This latest round of postponements has taken the number of matches postponed this season to 68 which is the most we have ever lost in the previous four years of existence. We lost 36 matches to the weather during November and this post-Christmas episode has cost us another 32 fixtures. Bowlsnet has been updated to include all the postponement and rearranged dates where known.
