Sixteen regional teams will be competing on the Garden Route from 10-14 December, playing five 50-over games each.
The encounter between the Free State and Gauteng at the Recreation Ground in Oudtshoorn will set the tone for this season’s end-of-year action, while the home team, the Garden Route Badgers, open their campaign against Limpopo in George.
The locals’ supporters can look forward to a week full of exciting cricket as the Badgers go on to face Northern Cape and Easterns over the following two days, before the playoffs are decided.
Western Province battle Eastern Province on day two, while the Titans tackle KZN Coastal. Both clashes present as highlights of this year’s programme, with the four provinces boasting some of the finest young talent in the country.
The regions are divided into two groups based on their performances over the previous five years, with the finals on day five also acting as the decider for the promotion and relegation of next year’s contestants.
The matches are scheduled to begin at 09:30 every day.
