Media Report
At the 2026 Bond Timber Cornwall Cricket League Annual Meeting, several changes to the League Rules were announced, following the ballot of all clubs. In a tightening of the rules, a team will now be relegated after a second concession in a season and withdrawn from the League on a fourth occasion. No team is permitted to reschedule more than THREE home fixtures in a season to a Sunday. For cancelled or abandoned matches, eight points will be awarded instead of six. The first round of the Britannia Inn Hawkey and Bradleys Vinter Cups will be played in mini-groups, guaranteeing a home and an away fixture before the knock-out stages. Fielding Restrictions have been extended to Division Three and Division Four and, for all rounds of the Rosevear Cup.
