Earlier in the season Boston Red A drew with Grantham A Red in a very exciting and well-contested match.

However, over the season Grantham have achieved slightly stronger results in their matches and consequently pipped Boston A to first place as, although equal on points, Grantham had the slightly better rubber difference.

Boston A, although unbeaten in the league, finished second overall.

Boston Red A ended their season against Tealby, in which the team of Billy Smith, Declan Dodes, Tomass Goreliks and Neve Gibbons won convincingly.
