Comments: Meole Brace had a solid season, just missing out on a top half finish again. Their home form was up and down, losing 4 games at home, 3 of those to the top 3, but won their 8 games at home all by at least 10-4. Their away form let them down to get into the top half, they didn’t score more than 4 winners away from home in the first half of the season. However they got 6 at Castlefields and Bylet, 5 at Hanwood and then won 11-5 at Burway.
