UKICCC County Championship 2021 Division 4A Forum.

Please use this forum for all matters relating to Division 4A. The team links and the 2021 fixtures can be found below. The results and tables can be found by clicking this link: CC21 League Results

The minimum number of players for a division 4 match is 3 but please aim for more. 

The aim is for 2 teams to be promoted at the end of the season.

Usually there will be one match per month, the fixtures will be published in December.  Challenges should be sent only after the instruction is received in a news item.  This will usually be sent on the 26^th of the previous month and the start date for matches will be set at 7^th of the month. An exception to this will be the first fixture in December, and there will be 2 fixtures in March.  Either team can send the challenge.  If a team does not have enough players on the day the match is due to start then they will be given one extra week to find the extra players. After this week is up the opposing team can choose to claim the match by default.

Please set up all matches as follows:
