Wiltshire Clubs have contacted me stating that they will not be able to play home matches on Wedensday nights due to their courts being in use for other reasons. Therefore please allow your away matches against Wiltshire teams to be played on a Thursday evening instead of a Wednesday evening. This will be adjusted on the fixtures list accordingly.

Please be aware we are trialling out a merger with Wiltshire squash over the summer to see how this works and how it can be incorporated for the winter league. I understand it will not please everybody, however, working along with Wiltshire Squash we are actively targetting declining participation rates both in Gloucestershire and Wiltshire and we are planning strategies to change the current decline and create a U-Turn.

Kind regards
