Kingsley Stafford Trophy Result

Keith Fantom (Romiley) won the Kingsley Stafford Trophy for the second time defeating Alan Sidebottom (Etherow) 21-17 in the final. Keith was 5-14 and looked down and out but some great corner bowling resulted in him winning the title at Glossop's North Road green.

Loosing semi-finalists were Phil Homer (Romiley) who was defeated by Alan 21-13 and Martin Hodson (Chadderton) who was defeated by Keith 21-19.
