FINALLY it's Walmersley A, Astley and Bolton School A as winners of Divisions One, Two and Three respectively.
To clinch Division Three Bolton School A had to beat their B team counterparts which they did 29-22, a margin of seven games.
The winners' team was Duncan Kyle, Mark Williams, Janet O'Connor and Ann Mooney. They all played well. The B team fielded Allan Sharpies, Chris Connor, Jill Pike and Jane Sayner. The latter might consider themselves unlucky since they got more balls in play -- 871 as opposed to 849 at a rough estimate -- but of course it's winners that count.
The A team finished top while the B team were only fourth. David Lloyd B were second.
In Division Two David Lloyd A finished strongly beating MGB 33 -30, a margin of a mere three games. David Lloyd's team comprised Jim Lever, Paul Callender, Wendy Birchall and Sarah Bleakley. Sarah Bleakley won 5-3, 6-5, 7-2 on what was an off-night for the MGB team of John Barrow, Steve Greenhalgh, Georgie Barrow and Chris Millington.
