Captain Adie Rowe says &#8220;it is another big game on the road. We go there doing our best to win but realise they are a good side and it will be tough. We have a few changes from the Wednesday cup team but our squad is strong and we will be all out.&#8221; Ifton have been in great form so far this season, and know a good win will send out a message to the Fields and the other challengers. Sir John Bayley are sandwiched between the two teams and have their first home game in a month against Chester Road. The Roaders have been good on the road so far, with 7 winners at Highley and winning at Burway, but know this will be a much sterner test. There is a Shrewsbury derby as Meole Brace take on Hanwood for the second time in two days. It was a close contest in the cup and it promises to be another at Meole. Skipper Nick Davies says &#8220;hopefully with home advantage we can avenge the County cup defeat by Hanwood. The weather\u2019s set fair, our green is in good condition and there should be a decent crowd. There will be plenty of good natured banter between the two teams and the game will be played in the right spirit. It\u2019s going to be a tough game with the Hanwood boys hitting some decent form of late but as always Meole will be up for the challenge.&#8221; Hanwood have been in good form so far this season, and won at Meole last season 11-5. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There is a North Shropshire derby between Adderley and Hanmer, with both teams in good form so far this season. Adderley captain Gary Whitehall says &#8220;a tricky game for us against Hanmer as they are familiar with our green and players. After a defeat in our last home game we will be looking for any sort of a home win this week. A few extra cakes on for after the game and a new player making his debut for us so will hope for a good night.&#8221; Wrockwardine Wood will look for a big home win over Burway to keep pace with the teams at the top, but Burway have been good away from home so far, with 5 winners at Bylet and 4 winners at Hanwood. St Georges will be looking for an away win as they travel to Highley, but this is Highley&#8217;s third home game in 9 days so will be hoping that results continue to improve. The bottom two meet as Wem USC take on Bylet with both teams needing a good result to bounce back from poor results last week. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Week 7 Fixtures:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wem USC v Bylet<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ifton v Castlefields<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meole Brace v Hanwood<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wrockwardine Wood v Burway<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adderley v Hanmer<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Highley v St Georges<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sir John Bayley v Chester Road<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fields face Miners test, Shrewsbury &amp; North Shropshire derbies The league leaders Castlefields have a tough trip to previous leaders Ifton in week 7 of the Taylor Support Shropshire Premier Bowling League.
