Important - Fixture Changes on Website:
I have made a school boy error with the fixtures that appear on the website, which largely impacts Division 2. Men 1 is
not impacted, Men 3 has just a couple of changes. These have now been corrected, but if you've previously printed the fixtures from
the website you will need to reprint. The fixtures in the word document have not changed. Apologies for any inconvenience
this may have caused.
