2019 Review:
Highley had a great debut season in 2019 where they finished 8th. This was an even greater achievement given they lost their first home game 14-1, but bounced back straight away with a 10-6 win away at Wem USC, and then a run of three straight home victories. They then won 11-5 twice at Ifton and Chester Road just before the halfway point. Despite some poor results in the second half, a 10-6 win at the Bylet earned their fourth away win of the season. They also won the Pool B.
2022 Aims:
They would love more of the same, but after a poor 2021 season, they will be hoping results go back to that level. Their home form needs to improve, they lost four at home, if they are to make sure they avoid any trouble. They would love to match their away form again, and two seasons of playing the greens should improve that.
