The Fields have won this 6 times, a record, and will aim for a 7th triumph which will mean a Premier League treble having won the Alan Mayhew Trophy and the Premier League already. Stand in captain Jon Palmer says &#8220;Friday is the start of an exciting weekend of team bowls for us. We face very dangerous opposition in Ifton that have quality throughout. We have had a great SPBL season, and it would be fantastic to finish it off on a high by winning the league treble.&#8221; Ifton have been in two Pool A finals before, in 2015 and 2022, but lost out to Sir John Bayley on both occasions. They&#8217;ve also been in a record 10 Pool B finals, winning half of those. Skipper Dickie Jones says &#8220;we are looking forward to the final after a great season ourselves. They are a quality side but we&#8217;re up for the challenge and look forward to a good night.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Scores will be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bowlsresultstwo.co.uk\/competitions\/cupresults.php?r=9&amp;yearid=2024&amp;compid=19&amp;d=23&amp;web=premier&amp;ret=0\"><strong>here<\/strong><\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><th>No<\/th><th>Castlefields<\/th><th>Score<\/th><th>Score<\/th><th>Ifton<\/th><\/tr><tr><td>1<\/td><td>Jon Palmer<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Owen Jackson<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2<\/td><td>Rich Goddard<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Leighton Roberts<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>3<\/td><td>Callum Wraight<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Nicky Jones<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>4<\/td><td>Tom Palmer<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Ian Jones<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>5<\/td><td>Wayne Rogers<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Joe Langford<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>6<\/td><td>Josh Hale<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Craig Griffiths<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>7<\/td><td>Adam Jones<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Martin Jones<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>8<\/td><td>Ashley Wellings<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Simon Tyler<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>&nbsp;<\/td><td>Games<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Games<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>&nbsp;<\/td><td>Aggregate<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>0<\/td><td>Aggregate<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Castlefields reserves: Hayden Lewis &amp; Adie Rowe<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ifton reserves: Ollie Jones, Andy Armstrong &amp; Geraint Williams<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Castlefields meet Ifton in the Pool A final on Meole Brace no.2 at 7 p.m. with both teams looking to end a great season with a trophy.
