IBWEST CUP WINNERS

There were various presentations following the final of the Ibwest Cup at Cleethorpes CC on Monday night, in which Western OB beat Grimsby Pumas. Central to them was James Ibbotson, managing director of Ibwest, the sponsors, assisted by Steve Metham, president of the John Pettit Grimsby and District Cricket League, plus the Mayor of North East Lincolnshire, Coun Norma Lincoln, and her consort Malcolm Lincoln. League chairman Colin Kennedy was MC for the presentations, which included "Yours Truly" (as Gy League Cup Secretary) having the honour of handing the man of the match trophy to Stuart Airey for his magnificent century.
