The Annual General Meeting was held at Old Shrewsbury Bowling Club on Thursday 19th February 2026 when all officers were re-elected en-bloc.

New team applications were accepted from Criftins, Oxon and Trench and there was a possibility that Unison would enter a second team. There were also resignations from Sinclair and Sir John Bayley.

Not including the possible additional team from Unison there will be 45 teams for the 2026 season with the likelihood that Division 4 will have 12 teams and the other three divisions will each have 11 teams.

The Committee’s rule change proposals  were agreed which will mean all Cup semi finals will be held 5 home and 5 away instead of on neutral greens.

The League season will start on 13th April and the fixture list will include matches on Bank Holidays, although if both clubs agree these can be re-arranged.

The next League Committee will be held at Old Shrewsbury Bowling Club on Thursday 19th March at 7.30 p.m. when all registration forms and entries fees of £15 per team must be paid.
