The annual regional league for the south west, running from September to Spring based on scores from a series of colour-coded events.

Each of the nine SWOA member clubs take it turn to host one of these events, previously referred to by their Swedish name of 'Galoppen'.

The magnificent trophies pictured were handcrafted c.2010 by the late Dave Holmes, a QO stalwart.
