Triumphant Top Team County Championship Winners

After six rounds featuring 17 Wadebridge players, Sunday 6th September proved a victorious day, as Wadebridge became County Championship winners of the Top Team Final.

A brilliant finale to the season for Wadebridge securing the coveted County Top Team Championship for the first time ever. After a morning match at Holman’s BC, Camborne, they came away with a 3-2 win against group 3 winners St Stephen.

Travelling a short distance onto Bickford Smith, the afternoon brought an exciting 3-2 win against current holders the superstars from Carnon Downs. It was a tight match, which went right to the wire, with a last end win in the fours securing the overall game.
A very fitting end to the season which also saw a Group 2 division one (North) league win and a Group 2 division one league cup win.

The County Top Team semi-final and final was the last appearance at the club for Peter Woodley and skip Harry Tinker. It also saw club veteran Roger Priestley participating in the winning team 43 years after reaching the finals in the first ever Top Team competition that was held in1983.

Wadebridge has had an excellent season led by the men’s A-Team Captain Richard Jones. The club is immensely proud of the achievements gained this season, and looking forward to a much-needed rest before the indoor season begins again in earnest.
