Brighton’s first Saturday pennant in many years was won by our Div 7 SW red side. This was a remarkable achievement by a group which included many inexperienced bowlers. Thanks to our skippers, Lee Agars, Roy Broughton, Geoff Mayne and Terry Fanning.

The side was remarkably consistent , with 10 players involved in 10 or more of the 18 games with Steve Howie and Alan Rolton playing 16 games.
