Comments: Adderley did what they set out to do, avoid finishing bottom in their debut season. They had a solid start with two good home wins, but home losses against Castlefields, Hanmer and Sir John Bayley was part of a 7 match winless streak before a narrow home win over Chester Road ended the run. A win over the Champions Wrockwardine Wood was followed by a home loss against bottom of the table Wem USC to put them back in trouble. Two more home wins followed but then another home loss against Hanwood and a home draw versus Burway caused a tricky end to the season. But their first away win at Chester Road put an end to their troubles, with a home win over Meole Brace in their last game meaning they kept over bottom spot.
