The first round of the 2018 Xamax BARLA National Cup is taking place tomorrow (Saturday 20 January) and many eyes are inevitably focussed on the weather in the light of snowfalls over the last couple of days or so.
All eight scheduled ties are, League Express understands, set at this stage to go ahead.
However, we have asked BARLA to keep us informed of any postponements and will update our site accordingly as and when information is received.
The programme as it stands is:
Saturday 20 January 2018
