The 2014 Summer League has currently 30 accepted teams and 3 reserve teams, 5 Down, BLC Boshers and Another View that has paid their full subscription fees which is being held on file awaiting any further late teams (possible 4 with One Player Short’s application form and fee being awaited). Should no futher teams apply by Saturday 19th April then I would like to hear views about the Summer League being increased to 12 teams per division with a BYE in each. The problem that this will cause is that 4 extra weeks would have to be found in the playing calendar and until I know what numbers are going to be entered into the KO competitions then it is hard at this stage to know where to find these 4 extra dates. What I do know is that at some stage 2 league matches would have to be also played on a Monday night as well as the normal Tuesday (as we do have 2 natural Tuesday dates that are free before the 2014/15 Winter League starts) and to find these extra Mondays I could find those 2 by holding all KO & Plate finals on the same night. Would you be happy for me to jostle around the fixture lists once I become aware of the numbers involved within the KO comps. The double up league matches would be Mon 15th & 22nd September.

Just as a reminder that the KO entries have to be received by Friday 18th April
