Report of 2000 Season

This season we again introduced the start of season team “doubles” competition to mark the new “Millennium”.  The Millennium Doubles were kindly sponsored by SHADES (Alan Peach) and whilst the draw produced the “group of death” (St Georges, Castlefields, Chester Road and S J Bayley), the final of the competition saw the inaugural winners, Battlefield pitted against the surprise package, Archibald Worthington and it was Battlefield who proved victorious, taking home the winners cheque of £200.

An “old” name was to appear on the League’s Roll of Honour this year and what a season they had.  Castlefields proved that they were the team to beat in 2000, with non playing captain, Allan Rogers leading them to success in all three team based competitions, in addition to the “Harris Cup”.   In the league, they led from the fourth match and by half way were 6 points clear of last years winners, St Georges. Eventually they finished 22 points clear of their nearest rivals, Wem USC. The second place achieved by Wem was their highest ever position.  The next two places were filled by St Georges and the “surprise” team of year, Donnington Wood, who took the award for the most improved team by a considerable margin.  Chester Road finished fifth, with Battlefield next. Awards were again made for the most improved teams and, as stated above, Donnington Wood, amassing an extra 45 points, received the top award with both Castlefields and Meole Brace sharing second place.

The Alan Mayhew Trophy went to Castlefields, who lifted the trophy for the third time with a 222-191 victory over Chester Road.  Alan Davies was the third recipient of the “Neville Edward’s” Man of the Match award and was presented with an engraved tankard by Neville after the match.

The Premiership Play-Offs saw Castlefields & Wrockwardine Wood victorious at Prees Bowling Club.  Castlefields completed a clean sweep of all three trophies with a win over St Georges in Pool A.  In Pool B, Wrockwardine Wood overcame Ifton to record their first win and provide Mike Hinton with an opportunity to receive some silverware.

On the individual front, James Grimston made up for his disappointment at losing in the county merit final to team mate John Breeze, when he won an exciting final against Craig Richardson 21-20, to take the Premier League Merit at Coddon.

Lastly, but not least, the season finished with the second ever playoff match.  Such was the interest in joining the Premier League, both Ford and District from the Shrewsbury and Market Drayton bowling leagues applied as league winners for the opportunity to play Ifton, who had finished in the “dreaded” bottom place.  It was decided to allow both teams to play off, and it was Ford who proved the stronger at Hadley USC and overcame District by 47 chalks.  The play off decider was to take place on Donnington Wood’s old green and, in front of more than 300 spectators, Ifton made a bright start and led by 15 chalks after the first four. After 8 games off, the margin has been reduced to 10 and finally Ifton managed to retain their Premier League status with an overall win of just 5 chalks in what was an exciting and nail biting match.
