COVID-19 : AGM & 2021 Avalon League

 

As we are in 'Lockdown 3' at present there is no decision on an AGM.

After the Prime Minister will make his announcements on Monday 22nd February 2021 where he is due to provide information on his 'Roadmap' for our way out of Lockdown 3, the committee have convened a meeting for Wednesday 24th February to consider all the options for the 2021 Season. It is anticipated at this stage that we will be able to make some further announcement for Monday 1st March with what the forward path may look like for Avalon League Golf for the 2021 Season.

 

This is in line with what we have indicated previously in October 2020 as:- "The intention at present is to review the status in the UK and the West Country of COVID-19 during February to provide guidance for all teams before any fixtures will be played next year".

Important Notice

 

Division 1 – Vivary Park A Team Withdrawal

 

As many will know, the Vivary A team has had difficulty this season in fielding a regular team owing to some changes at their Club.   

We confirm, therefore, that the Vivary Chairman has informed us that the A team is withdrawing from Division 1 with immediate effect.  

Vivary conveyed their apologies to the other teams in the division for the disruption created this season and wished everyone the best for the rest of the season.

Consequently, the League precedent has been set in the past when a team has withdrawn from the League in mid season.  

All fixtures involving Vivary this season will be removed from the results and the remaining 5 teams will play between them for the Division 1 Championship this season.   

 

The League tables and results have been updated to represent this position.
