Essex County League

I am delighted to announce that StriveX will be the sponsors of the "StriveX Essex League" for the 2026/27 season. The sponsorship will take the form of prizes for each Division winner. The winner of the overall Open Doubles will receive £300 in cash. 

We will be using StriveX shuttles for our finals day matches and for our Women's Doubles matches. 

We encourage clubs to take a look at the StriveX shuttles, and can order a trial pack of six CS100 shuttles and six CS200 shuttles for £25 including package and postage. As an additional incentive divisional winners can receive a £150 voucher for equipment if they have used StriveX shuttles for their home matches during the season. 

The make up of the competition is now published on the website and fixture secretaries are able to start confirming dates.

Entries for the 2026/27 season can be made here: https://forms.gle/92jCQvDfoxcqHdWV8

The deadline to complete your response is 21st August (sorry we are a bit behind schedule for one reason or another).

Please note that we have booked Redbridge for a Grand Finals Day on Sunday 6th June. This will decide the winners of the Open Doubles and settle promotion and relegation issues. Teams should plan accordingly.

We had opportunities recently to present trophies to the Essex League winners. They are quite large, and some of them go back to the 1960s.
