Cup Round 1 draw

The Cup Round 1 draw is out, and it has served up plenty to talk about ahead of Wednesday, 21 October 2026. George & Dragon 'B' and George & Dragon 'A' go head to head in a club derby, with bragging rights at the bar on the line. Elsewhere, Bulls Head 'A' (Division 3) head away to face Division 1 South Wigston CC 'B', and will need to be at their best to pull off a shock. Finally, Plough 'B' Bruntingthorpe of Division 3 face a stiff test away to South Wigston CC 'C' from Division 1 at South Wigston CC (Back room), but cup nights have a habit of throwing up surprises. All games start at 20:30. Watch the draw unfold in the video below, with the full draw underneath. ![Watch the draw](/images/1791225185403_ee96c90b.mp4) ![The full Cup Round 1 draw](/images/1791225187550_6819e994.png)

Winter is coming.....

The Winter season fixtures are now live on the website with 26 teams taking part. With Lutterworth Club A and Countesthorpe Bowls dropping out this season due to lack of numbers, the divisions have been structured as follows. Division 1 has 10 teams, Division 2 has 8 teams, and Division 3 has 8 teams. As such, Railway A has been moved up from Division 2 after finishing 3rd last time out, with the usual promotion and relegation of the top and bottom two teams giving us the new divisions. This means we do not have any bye weeks, but there will be a number of spare weeks for Division 2 and Division 3 until all divisions are complete. One spare week has been put after the turnaround in week 9 for Division 2 and Division 3, with the rest at the end of the season, to be used for any cancelled games or friendlies. We have also changed the second half of the season to not mirror exactly the first set of games, so we can get a more balanced home and away set of games throughout the season. To access the new fixtures, go to your team page and select WINTER 2026/27 in the pull-down at the top, and for all fixtures do the same on the fixtures pages from the main menu. It will automatically switch over once the summer season finishes.

Performances of the Week: Tom smashes 90 while Lord Nelson helped by heavy hitters

The week belonged to the big individual numbers as Tom Loomes led the way for South Wigston CC B with 90 points, 4 whacks and a best throw of 18, as well as 17, 16 and 12 at home to Bulls Head Broncos. Right behind him Brian Wilson of South Wigston CC B notched 79 with 4 whacks and a best throw of 15. Lord Nelson had 3 heavy hitters including Shaun Markham's 78 with 3 whacks, while in form Harry Ojari scored 77 with 4 whacks and a best throw of 15 to go with Neil Markham on 77 and 3 whacks. ![](/images/1785489545024_a4ce06e2.png) Mick Hopley of South Wigston CC C hit 73 with a best throw of 17 and Eric Joynson also on 73 with 3 whacks and a best throw of 16 at home to New Plough A. The data also shows the all important whack ups with Tom Loomes and Brian Wilson both registering 4 whacks, Harry Ojari matching that tally and Shaun Markham close behind with 3, giving them star status in the FSL points the week. However Paul Elliott hit the top of the whack table again with 2 more taking him to 22, overtaking Nigel Loomes who had a rare blank week with Tom Loomes, Brian Wilson and Eric Joynson only just behind them after this weeks hauls. Mick Wade has now also had at least one whack in all 13 games he's played this season, will the streak continue?
