Sunday nights would probably be best for these ties. Ideally, we would do 6-10pm, starting each one on the hour (an hour usually being enough to complete the two matches in each tie).
Sunday afternoons are also a possibility for players unavailble on those nights. |

It means the present Coca Cola Championship, which used to of course be called Division One and before that Division Two.
