Byron Bay won two grand finals in the Coastal League Minor and Major Premiers last Saturday with second-and third-grade beating Terranora and Bangalow, respectively.
Second-grade wins
In the second-grade final Teranorra batted first and were all out for 123 with Byron’s best bowler being Sebastian Campbell who took four for 18.
‘In reply we started batting and got none for 30 when a big rail squall came through,’ Byron Club President, Baz Daniels, told The Echo.

‘Then we had a reduced target after the rain and needed 82 to win. Our opening batters, Stephen and Cameron Daniels, went back out onto the pitch and knocked off the 82 runs, winning the game without us losing a wicket. Cameron was 43 not out and Stephen was 33 not out.
‘We were minor premiers, We’d led the competition all year. Terranorra are a very good team and they actually beat us during the regular rounds in the competition, but we were just too strong on the day,’ he said.
Third-grade winners
The third-grade also won the grand final against Bangalow with Byron being bowled out for 150 runs. Greg Trevena 37, Adrian Simpkins 36, and Mark Williams 15.
Bangalow followed with 56 but was unable to meet Byron’s score in the end with Ryder Coles 14, Heath Chiggwidden and Adrian taking three wickets and captain Shaun Greening two. Heath also had two catches and one run out.
