Note that in this competition we only play each team once and the home /away allocation is based on a recurring two year cycle. 

There are 5 groups of eight teams across the UK with the top 3 in each group qualifying for the knock out stages along with the best placed fourth team.

Rule tweaks for 2022:

No player can play in ECB 1st XI and 2nd XI competitions in the same week (Mon to Sun) 

Players who have played 60% or more matches in the regional groups for their ECB County 1st XI will be considered as 1st XI players and cannot be selected to play in their County 2nd XI team in any of the knockout stages. For calculation purposes: In an ECB group of 8 teams playing 7 matches 60% will be considered to be 4 matches.
