Southampton Solent's student cricketers are bracing themselves for a demanding northern launch to their British Universities Premier Division campaign in late April.
They face back-to-back away matches against Durham and Leeds & Bradford on April 23 and 24 before heading south for a run of four successive matches at Totton & Eling in May, when Loughborough, Cambridge, Cardiff and Oxford will play at Southern Gardens. Solent's last league match is against Bristol at Coombe Dingle.
Bournemouth University's opening game in Premier South is against Cardiff at Chapel Gate. They then visit Oxford, host Exeter and Canterbury before taking on Cardiff Met and finally Portsmouth.
Southampton University field two sides in West Division 1A, where Aberystwyth, Bath, Exeter II and Swansea provide the opposition.
