Fenton and Cheddleton were winners of the Jackson (U141) Cup and the Gothard (U161) Cup in the Finals played at Stafford last night. Cheddleton were also runners-up in the Hickman (Open) Cup after losing on board count to Walsall Kipping, with the match drawn at 3-3. I'm told that the Withnall Cup Final between Lichfield and Walsall Kipping was not played due to a lack of playing space. I don't know at this point when it will now be played.
Fenton beat Lichfield by 3-2 in the Jackson Cup and Cheddleton beat Stafford by 3-2 in the Gothard Cup. Congratulations to both clubs on flying the NSDCA flag so successfully. I don't yet have the score cards for the Hickman and Gothard Finals but the Jackson Cup score card is below - Fenton names first.
