Comments: Wem USC had a tough season which ended with them finishing bottom. They struggled to get their best 12 out, but when they did, they did produce some great results, winning at Bylet and Adderley, and defeating the Champions Sir John Bayley in their last game. They only won 5 games at home which meant they weren’t able to finish ahead of Adderley after a season long battle between the two. However they didn’t have to take part in a play off at the end of the season.
