1st XI League
Each team plays each other team twice, once at home and once away making a total of 26 matches. Games start out as 50 over matches but if rain affects play they can be a minimum of 25 overs. The method for working out reduced targets is to take 3/4 of the run rate off the first innings score for every over that is lost in the second innings. The second innings can be less than 25 overs as long as there were more than 25 overs bowled in the first innings and the team batting second believe they can chase the full total posted in the first innings. If the team batting second get the full total then they win. If the team bowling second get the team batting second all out then they win. If neither team does this then it is a No Result. For example Lowerhouse scored 124-7 off their allocated 31 overs. Nelson opted to chase 125 for victory off 12 overs. They ended up on 82-7 so neither team won and it was a no result. There are 5 dates used to replay abandoned matches. 10 points are awarded for a win, 7 points for a tie, 3 points for a no result and 2 points for bowling the opposition out. Up to 5 bonus points are then awarded to the team who lost. If the team that lost bowled second they get 1 point for 5 wickets, 2 for 6 wickets, 3 for 7 wickets, 4 for 8 wickets and 5 for 9 wickets. If they batted second they get 1 point for being within 50 runs, 2 points for being within 40 runs, 3 points for being within 30 runs, 4 points for being within 20 runs and 5 points for being within 10 runs. 1 point is deducted for slow over rate. There are no bowlers restrictions with the exception that fast bowlers who are:- U19s can only bowl 7 overs in a spell before having to take a 14 over break, U17s can only bowl 6 overs in a spell before having to take a 12 over break, U15s can only bowl 5 overs in a spell before having to take a 10 over break, U13s can only bowl 4 overs in a spell before having to take an 8 over break and U11s can only bowl 3 overs in a spell before having to take a 6 over break. This applys to every Lancashire League tournament. All U18s have to wear a helmet when batting and when standing up to the stumps wicketkeeping. Again this applys to all tournaments.
