2025 ECHO Knockout draw

This year’s draw for the T20 ECHO Knockout draw pits holders Birkenhead Park against their near neighbours Birkenhead St Marys.

Last year’s beaten finalists Rainford travel to newly promoted Firwood Bootle, while semi-finalists Formby host Spring View and Chester Boughton Hall travel to Wallasey in the first round proper.

This year’s finals day will be held on Bank Holiday Monday, August 25, filling a gap in the calendar left by the traditional Wirral derby not being a fixture this year.

In another change designed to give the hosts more time to prepare, clubs will be invited to bid to host finals day, and will not necessarily be one of the competing clubs.

The ECHO Knockout dates back to 1974 and is administered by the management committee of the Love Lane Liverpool Competition.
