Comments:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ifton were the most improved team this season, being 39 points better off than last season (after having 7 deducted last season). They got stronger as the season went on, only starting it with two 9-5 home wins over Burway and Bylet, and then despite a 11-3 home win over Castlefields they suffered a shock loss 8-6 at home to Wrockwardine Wood. But they had good away form, the best in the league, getting more than 5 in their first four away games. But after getting 2 at Newport they bounced back winning 11-3 at home to Meole Brace, and despite poor results at Burway, Castlefields and Wrockwardine Wood, they scored 5 away wins in the second half of the season. Four 10-4 wins away at the bottom four and then a fantastic 9-5 win at Meole Brace in the penultimate week gave them a chance of second place. But despite finishing level on points with Meole Brace it was them who finished higher because of more games won.<\/p>\n

Nicky Jones won 13 consecutive wins in sharing the award which also helped him finish top of Ifton’s averages.<\/p>\n

They withdrew from the Alan Mayhew, but in the Pool A they finished runners-up after having a bye into the Semis, beating Champions Newport by 11. However they played Sir John Bayley on their top green in the final, and despite leading after the first four they lost by 18 overall.<\/p>\n
