Division 4 cup, won by Marldon 'B' last season.
The league tables for 2026 will be updated when I receive them from the League Organiser and
can therefore lag behind the match reports shown below.
Extract from Rules: The League have decided that due to the fading light at beginning and end of the season, all MDL league games this season will be contested over 18 ends. In the event of the Greenkeeper, or in his absence the two Captains, deciding that play cannot continue due to poor conditions then the game result will stand if a minimum of 45 end have been played, otherwise the game is declared void and will have to be replayed at a later date.
