We are excited to announce a new Cup competition structure for the season ahead — our most competitive competition format yet.
Designed to create greater equity for all levels of the Combination, the new structure ensures that every club has more to play for, with teams competing against sides more closely matched to their level and not playing a team more than 1 levels above.
The top four ranked Combination sides will battle it out for The Cup, while the next eight teams will fight for The Vase. The final 10 sides will face off in The Bowl, with the four lowest-ranked teams taking part in a preliminary round.
All clubs within the Combination have been ranked based on their playing level and final league position at the end of the 2025/26 season.
The competition format and regulations have been ratified by the Competitions Sub-Committee, with the new structure set to deliver more competitive matches and exciting opportunities for every club.
Finally, a huge thanks to Davis Access for their continued sponsorship and support of our Cup competetions
Join us live on our social media channels at 19:00 on Wednesday 2nd September for this year’s live draw.
We are also delighted to announce that Davis Access will be sponsoring all three tournaments this year.
More competitive. Greater equity. More to play for.
