Round of 16 on 7 July (reserve 14 July) - any teams that only had one home game in the Division will have priority for a home game in the R16  (where possible - if more than four such clubs qualify, the home teams will be drawn from those clubs first)

Round of eight (QF) on 21 July. 

Finals Day 30 July (if Clifton qualify this will be moved because they are representing GMCL in the national competition).
