The League Secretary would draw your attention to Rule 9 of the League Championships regarding the recent postponement of the majority of League Matches on the 27th April.
The home team shall offer two dates (not consecutive and which do not coincide with a fixture, involving either club, arranged by the Northern Ireland Private Greens Bowling League) to the opposing team, one of which must be accepted.
The Honorary League Secretary must be informed in writing (letter or email will be acceptable, text message is not) of the date agreed by both clubs concerned not later than 10 working days after the original fixture date. Failure to contact the Honorary League Secretary by either team within this period will result in forfeit of the fixture and the award of 7 points to the opposition. In the event that neither team contacts the Honorary League Secretary then the match shall be declared void. Should the home club not offer dates within 10 working days, the visiting team is still required to contact the Honorary League Secretary to advise him of the situation or it too will forfeit the fixture and no points will be awarded to either team.

If the second fixture is also postponed due to bad weather does the 28 days reset or is it still from the original date?
Asking because it actually happened

Damien, I would suggest a phone call to the League Secretary to clarify that, I wouldn't want to give you the wrong answer!

Jamie, in that respect Rule 9 is quite clear:
The home team shall offer two dates (not consecutive and which do not coincide with a fixture, involving either club, arranged by the Northern Ireland Private Greens Bowling League) to the opposing team, one of which must be accepted.
Therefore in your example the 15th May (midweek) and 23rd May (PGL Junior Cup) would be classed as fixtures arranged by the NIPGL so you would not be able to offer these dates unless your club was not competing on either of those nights.
