Created for the 2025 season, the Southern Local Association Touring League will enable all bowlers who trialed for their county that year to bowl competitively against other counties in the southern region.

This league gives the opportunity for bowlers to wear their county shirt even if they have not been chosen for the county events. Bowlers must have bowled the county trials to be eligible, for full rules, click here.

It’s a tournament where counties make up teams from across the age groups, mixing up the team and giving all those who entered their counties trials a chance to pull on a county shirt. Some use it as practice for the main team, some use it as a kind of development tournament for the squad players – it’s something for everyone.
