John Clarke Trophy Finals - 6th October 2018

The North Staffs Junior Bowls League held the finals of the John Clarke Memorial Team knock-out at Bucknall Private Club.
The League values the continued sponsorship of Mary and Steve Clarke and for their very kind donation of trophies.

With thanks to Bucknall Private for the use of their facilities, and for kindly providing free teas and coffee on a damp day.
Thanks also to League Chairman, Alan Jones, Nigel Towey, John Simpson and all others for helping to run this worthwhile tournament on the day.
