The eventual winner was man for all seasons Roy Thompson with a creditable 2-7-0 using pinkies, in second place was Max Woehrle with 2-0-0 and bringing up the rear in third place was club chairman Hugh Blundstone with a good weight of 1-4-0.

For the next match members are reminded to meet at the old post office, High Street at 8am, booked in members only please.
