[Dave Deacon]

Many thanks for receiving the below….

Lifton v Morwenstow

Southgate Seniors v Kilkhampton

St Breward v Castle Loyale

Week St Mary v Bude Town Res

St Neot v Dobwalls

North Petherwin Res v North Petherwin

Pensilva v Boscastle

Lanreath v Holsworthy Res

 

Games to be played Sundays 2nd, 9th & 16th October

Kick Offs @2pm No extra time, and penalties if required

Some interesting derbies in the draw.

At North Petherwin the Badgers two teams play each other.

Week St Mary against Bude Town Res also a North Cornwall affair.

St Neot will probably play Dobwalls at Lantoom Park as they are ' homeless' and Dobwalls is one of their home options!

The longest trip sees Holsworthy Res travel to  SE Cornwall to face Lanreath, both clubs are relatively new to the competition having only participated twice.

Kilkhampton face a tricky game at Southgate whilst Boscastle also could face a rejuvenated Pensilva side.

Finally Lifton face Morwenstow in a what could be a tight game.

Does the Launceston Cup not play host to a Launceston side? 
Seems a bit peculiar.

It is only open to Junior sides, and as of last season East Cornwall league clubs were allowed to enter too. So both Launceston teams are not eligible.

St Neot will play Dobwalls 9th of October at Lanreath. Ko2pm

Big thanks to Lanreath for making it possible. 

St Neot are trying to get a pitch closer to the parish for the future, but a nomadic lifestyle is one we have to choose at the moment.
