They were always ahead in the game, and held off any fightback the Fields tried to put together on a tricky Chester Road green with brown and green patches. They led by 18 off four, but the Fields reduced this to 9 after eight games off, however Josh Hale then dealt the decisive blow when winning 6, which earned him the &#8220;Mark Burroughs Man of the Match&#8221; award. Please find a review of the games below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>Scott Simpson raced 15-3 up on Tom Palmer, including a run of five 2s, in the corners, before Tom got back to trail 17-9. However Scott then ran out. <\/li><li>Alex Jones raced 16-6 up on Dave Peach on round pegs, but Dave played well on a 20m straight mark to lead 17-16. However Alex got the jack back and ran out. <\/li><li>Ash Gregory, replacing the unfit Paul Evans, trailed Glyn Herbert 6-3 but then went 14-9 up. He kept this lead till the end to win 18. <\/li><li>Wayne Rogers always held the advantage over Chris Worthington when going 9-4 and 15-9 up, but Chris kept pegging him back and from 20-15 down got back to 20 across, but Wayne managed to get the one he needed. <\/li><li>Gary Neal went 9-0 down against Dave Lloyd, before then going 13-9 up. Dave got back to 14-13 down before Gary ran out. <\/li><li>Stuart Rutter was 7-3 down against Hayden Lewis before he went 12-7 up over the middle. He further extended his lead to 17-9, but Hayden got back into the game at 18 across. Despite this, Stuart then ran out. <\/li><li>Adie Rowe had a good start to lead Ayden Smith in the corners around 14-6, before Ayden got back on a 20m straight mark and got himself back into the game. Adie got the block and went back corners but Ayden got back to get 19. <\/li><li>Andy Judson had a close game with Spencer Clarke, the biggest lead being 13-9 before Spencer got back to 13 across. Andy then went 20-16 up before Spencer got back to 19. <\/li><li>Josh Hale played well on a round peg and then over the middle to lead a not 100% Jon Palmer 8-3, and Jon couldn&#8217;t put a run together to peg him back, Josh eventually winning 6. <\/li><li>Kane Beaman trailed Russell Pugh 9-3 and 15-8 before coming back well to lead 18-16. Russell then scored two 2s but Kane got out 20 in the next two ends. <\/li><li>Tom Roden played very well in the corners to be 9-4 and 16-5 up, before winning 7 against Adam Jones. <\/li><li>Owen Evans went 9-4 up over the middle against Mark Taylor, and then 14-8. Mark tried to get back at him but Owen kept his lead to win 18. <\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>Captain Dave Lloyd said &#8220;this was my first final as captain and it&#8217;s great to win a trophy. Commiserations to Castlefields, they pushed us and I&#8217;m sure they will do so in the league for the rest of the season.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you to Chester Road for providing a challenging green and a great selection of food after the match. Thank you to Tony Weaver for refereeing, Barlows for sponsoring the event, and to Alan Mayhew for his continued support for this competition. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1270.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1270-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13511\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1270-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1270-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1270-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1270-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1270-800x600.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1270.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Sir John Bayley celebrate their win!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1266.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1266-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1266-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1266-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1266-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1266-450x600.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1266-800x1067.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1266.jpeg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Sir John Bayley Captain Dave Lloyd receives the Alan Mayhew Trophy off the donor himself. <\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1263.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1263-768x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13513\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1263-768x1024.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1263-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1263-1152x1536.jpeg 1152w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1263-450x600.jpeg 450w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1263-800x1067.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1263.jpeg 1440w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Josh Hale receives the &#8220;Mark Burroughs Man of the Match&#8221; award from League Competitions Secretary Rob Burroughs.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1257.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1257-1024x768.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-13514\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1257-1024x768.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1257-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1257-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1257-1536x1152.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1257-800x600.jpeg 800w, https:\/\/www.thespbl.co.uk\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/IMG_1257.jpeg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption>Sir John Bayley before the final.
