Bolton U18's have volunteered to step down into the Junior CUP as they only have a few U18's players whom they will not be fielding in the Junior CUP.
We thank them for accommodating the League which enabled a full Draw of 32 Teams in the Senior CUP competition.

Trentham and Manchester declined to play in the Junior CUP without their U18's and have been moved back up to the Senior CUP, taking the places of Warrington and Anselmians.
