FINALS DAY
A field of no fewer than 13 county bowlers representing Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Shropshire, Greater Manchester and North Lancs & Fylde assembled for the finals of the Rastrick Classic.
The finals were under serious doubt of taking place due to heavy rain over the previous few days which had caused severe flooding of the green at Rastrick. The weather forecast was for much of the same on Sunday but the rain moved South and the finals went ahead on schedule. A crowd or around 200 witnessed some excellent bowling which culminated in Graeme Wilson of Elland WMC and Lower Hopton beating Chris Kelly of Thongsbridge in a thrilling final. After being presented with the prize money by Clive Wilkinson of Marstons (main sponsor), Graeme said that he was delighted to add the Rastrick Competition to his CV after coming close on numerous previous attempts.
