The team handicaps for this season's knockout cup and knockout plate matches are:

Arnold Civil Defence A (0)
Arnold Civil Defence B (160)
BCI Braves (120)
BCI Super Elites (40)
Beeston Snooker Hall (0)
City Hospital Leisure Centre (240)
Cotgrave Welfare (160)
Lenton Liberal Club (180)
Mapperley Community Centre (120)

Oakleigh Lodge Social Club (240)
Pegasus Snooker Club A (0)
Pegasus Snooker Club B (160)
Phoenix Cue Sports (120)
Stadium Leisure (80)
Wollaton RBL (240)

For those not familiar with the format, matches are played for points and therefore every ball counts.  The handicaps above are then added to the totals for each team to give the final totals and these are then submitted to the league secretary who will compile tables for each group.

eg. if Wollaton play Phoenix, Wollaton will add 240 points to their total and Phoenix will add 120 points to their total to give the final totals.

Full rules available here.

Full draw and latest tables available here.
