County Championship

Fixtures - Season 2025/26

Last Updated: Sunday, 26 October 2025 (issue 17)

Here are the fixtures for next season.

Dates of matches in adjacent rating sections have been staggered to maximise the pool of players available to captains.

Both the u1650 and u1450 comprise five counties and although competition rules allow captains to vote for double round robins the match controller has opted to apply a single cycle due to the limited number of available dates and other constraints; the benefit is that captains will find it easier to select dates for rearranged fixtures.

Key: E=Essex, H=Hertfordshire, K=Kent, M=Middlesex, Sx=Sussex, Sy=Surrey
