Team:<\/strong> Highley<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2024 Captain:\u00a0<\/strong>Stu Gittings<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2024 Aim: <\/strong>To improve on last season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2024 Position:\u00a0<\/strong>9th<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2024 Points:\u00a0<\/strong>168<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Audlem Special Events Alan Mayhew Trophy:<\/strong>\u00a01st round (lost to Castlefields by 11)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2023 Pool B: <\/strong>1st round (lost to Meole Brace by 9)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2024 Pool B: <\/strong>1st round (lost to Wem USC by 6)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Leading Player:\u00a0<\/strong>Dave East 20 wins<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Comments:\u00a0<\/strong>Highley matched their points total from last season, but did move up one place, which could have been two had Meole Brace not snatched 8th place from them last game of the season. Their home form wasn’t as good as last season, they lost at home four times, three of them against the top three which included only 2 winners at home to Castlefields and 3 at home to Ifton. Their away form was good though, two wins at Bylet and Meole Brace, and having at least 5 winners on another 5 occasions. They didn’t win a cup game though, losing by 11 or less in their three cup games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Winter Aims<\/strong>: Keep the commitment they’ve got and maybe try to sign a couple more to increase competition for places. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
