FIXTURE LIST
It has been brought to my attention that there has been a slight technical error with the date for the Dunkeld Fixture which is in the book as Monday 5th June, when it fact it should read Thursday 5th of June. Sorry about that!!
I have also been asked how the dates for the North of Scotland are chosen. As most of you will be aware the North of Scotland is historically played the week following the Jamboree. The Jamboree takes place on the last Saturday, Sunday and Monday of June therefore the North of Scotland is played the following week which normally is the first monday in July. Unfortunately due to the way the dates land this year it makes North of Scotland slightly later! To explain this futher I have lisited the last few years dates as an example.
2002
Jamboree : 22nd - 24th June
N of S : 1st - 3rd July
2003
Jamboree : 28th - 30th June
N of S : 7th - 9th July
2004
Jamboree : 26th - 28th June
N of S : 5th - 7th July
2005
Jamboree : 25th - 27th June
N of S : 4th - 6th July
2006
Jamboree : 24th - 26th June
N of S : 3rd - 5th July
2007
Jamboree : 23rd - 25th June
N of S : 2nd - 4th July
2008
Jamboree : 28th - 30th June
N of S : 7th - 9th July
I hope this explains the dates fully and if you ever want to check when these events will take place just work on this same formula! Leap years of course makes a difference to the dates too. As you can see we have come full cycle from 2003!
I hope that all makes sense!
