Team:<\/strong> Ifton<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023 Captain: <\/strong>Dickie Jones<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023 Aim: <\/strong>After fifth last season, a top four place is the next aim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023 Position: <\/strong>5th<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023 Points: <\/strong>201<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barlows Fire & Security Alan Mayhew Trophy:<\/strong> 2nd Round (lost to SJB by 24)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leading Player: <\/strong>Craig Griffiths 17 wins<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comments:<\/strong> Ifton matched their finish in 2022, but were 13 points worse off than that season. They had a great start to the season though, winning their first five games, including two away wins, and then got 5 winners in their first loss at St Georges. But a narrow 1 shot loss at home to Castlefields stopped their momentum and they struggled to regain it. They did have two more away wins at Chester Road and Highley, but couldn’t catch the teams above, and suffered another narrow 1 shot home loss to the Bayley in their penultimate home game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
