Castlefields, two-in-row winners of the 10-a-side bowls knockout, were beaten by Hadley USC by just three shots at Childs Ercall while North Shropshire big guns Woore lost to local rivals Bridgewater in an even tighter affair.

In fact their tie at Nantwich Park Road finished tied on aggregate and number of winners – so it was Chris Nicholson’s 21-9 win for Bridgewater that took them to next month’s final on the best winner of the match rule.
