THE winter league has now come to an end, with Electra A convincing winners of the Division One crown.

Such was the competitive nature of this division that there were two teams on 14 points, with New Inn, Folkingham taking third place from Electra B and narrowly missing out on promotion.

R Saul recorded the highest check out in this division with 125.

Nags Head, Heckington were the runaway winners of Division Three, winning every one of their 14 games to take the title. White Horse Colts were runners up, winning 10 of their 14 games.
