The BBC also won the Rinks game with Captain Jeff Richards, Brian Doggett, Trefor Evans and Gail Chick gaining another two points, there score gave enough of a shot difference to gain the extra two points. The final result was six points to each club.
This is the second Northern Championship that the club has won this year, having already won the L.L.B (Levante Lawn Bowls) North/South League Championship earlier in the year. Congratulations to one and all.
