2026/2027 Season Updates:
This season, the league will be run by Mike Steven and Adam Irvine – details shown below.
The league rules will remain the same as previous years.
The amendment to the league is that due to recruiting new teams (we are now at 14) we are splitting it into an East and West Conference to help with travel times, and in theory, help increase the fulfilment of matches. We are putting together the fixtures on this as we speak.
We are trialling the conference until Christmas and then repeat it after Christmas if they want to – if not, it will then revert to a standard 14 team league and everyone will play each other, however will be either a Home or Away fixture (rather than both).
If staying in Conference, we will have a finals day where 7th v 7th, 6th v 6th and so on.
The conferences are as follows:
| EAST (Managed by Adam) | WEST (Managed by Mike) |
| Aston OE | Bromyard |
| Bournville | DK Wasps |
| Camp Hill | Greyhound |
| Droitwich | Kidderminster |
| Evesham | Ludlow |
| Five Ways OE | Old Halesonians |
| Warley | Stourbridge |
