There are four ties in the Preliminary Round of the KGJ Insurance County Cup. There is one all Salop Leisure Premier League clash as Chester Road take on Ifton at the Prince of Wales Hotel, just 5 days after they met in the league in St Martins. Chester Road captain Gary Beff is “looking forward to what will hopefully be a competitive hard fought game on a green new to many players from both teams!” His opposition skipper Dickie Jones is “expecting a tough game on a green that both teams don’t know much about.” There is a clash of two non Premier League teams as Mid Shropshire Division 2 side Bridgnorth look to cause a shock against Tanners League Division One side Prince of Wales Hotel at Sir John Bayley. The other two ties sees clubs seeking upsets against Premier League opposition. Market Drayton League Champions Adderley play St Georges at Battlefield, just weeks after meeting in the Barlows Fire & Security Alan Mayhew Trophy, while Battlefield take on Bylet at Bowring non-premier green. It would be a big shock if either team can overcome their Premier League opposition.
