Comments: Highley enjoyed their best ever season in the league with their best ever finish and points total. They did have an up and down season with their results, winning at Wem USC second game then getting two winners at home to Castlefields. They lost another three games at home, against the rest of the top three and St Georges, but did record their best ever home win of 13-1 against Adderley. Their away form was solid, only at the top four did they score less than 4 at, winning three away games. They did also reach the County Cup and Harris Cup Finals, losing to Sir John Bayley on both occasions.
2026 Aims: More consistency would elevate them into the top 6.
