In 2019, the Junior County team are drawn in a league with Cheshire,Potteries & District , Merseyside & IOM Having lost a lot of bowlers over the last two years due to them turning 18, we had to blood a lot of younger bowlers and give them a taste of representative bowling. We're on a big learning curve for many of the bowlers.
