Shipton-under-Wychwood 3rd have lost all the points they won in a 148-run thrashing of Challow & Childrey 3rd in MP Sports Cherwell League Division 10.

As a result, Challow sit top of the table with a maximum 50 points from 50, while Buckingham Town and Brackley have also been penalised.

Cherwell League committee member Graham Stearn explained: “There were three teams that fell foul of a league rule that requires all clubs to notify the league of fully paid up playing members of a club that will only be able to play in Divisions 7 to 10.

“As a result, all three clubs were deemed to have lost the matches played by their teams in Divisions 7 to 10.”

The clubs have now supplied the required list of names.
