Congratulations go to Westfield C, who beat Old Grammarians A to become Challenge Trophy winners for 2026. In an entertaining match, the Westfield trio of Ben Stoneman, Asish Nandi and Jose Garcia beat the OG's trio of Jon Perkins, Pete Boustred and Paul Goodman. OG's were arguabluy missing their best player, Grant Timms, who is currently in hospital recovering from a procedure. We wish him a speedy recovery. Westfield were also missing their highest averaging player, Karol Rylik. Despite this, Ben Stoneman got Westfield off to a flying start by beating Jon Perkins 4-0. He also drew 2-2 with Paul Goodman and Pete Boustred, to end his matches with a 25 point surplus (well played)! Jose Garcia also put in a good shift, halving with both Paul Goodman and Jon Perkins, and whilst Asish struggled with the pimples of Goodman, the team had done enough overall to win by 28 points (once the handicap of 80 points had been added).
