Cleveland v Derbyshire
This coming weekend Derbyshire will complete their nine games season in division three of the BDO Inter County Championships with an away game against Cleveland.
With four wins, a draw and only one defeat in their opening six games of the season expectations were high of promotion this term however Derbyshire faltered in their last two fixtures against Wiltshire and Buckinghamshire ultimately ending any dreams of playing n division two next season. Nevertheless there is still one game to play and it is one that if won would see them finish on a real high as their hosts are fighting for promotion, third in the table on 175 just one short of second placed Buckinghamshire and only five adrift of leaders Somerset so every point is crucial to them.
Selected to play in the final game of the season are, Men’s ‘A’:- Ian Allcock, Henry Coates, Tim Daniels, Gary Fenn, David Fritchley, Richard Hanson, Rob Hawker, Sean Lambert, Steve Paling, Michael Ryall, Steve Soar, Lee Stanley, Men’s ‘B’:- Dean Allsopp, Ian Clarke, John Elliott, Matt Faulkner, Dan Ford, Connor Hodgkinson, Ben Holmes, Andy Houghton, Richard Hughes, Scott McCabe, Tim Rippon, Paul Williams, Reserves:- Gary Barker, Christian Bradshaw, Keith Cooper, Martin Courtney, Marc Ellis, Brian Snell, Steve Thompson, Women’s ‘A’:- Rachel Ayres, Rachel Bird, Jane Densley, Rebecca Hoyland, Sammi Marshall, Jackie Sweet, Women’s ‘B’:- Terri Bellamy, Dawn Buckley, Dee Fenn, Sara-Jane Harrison, Jennifer McCormick, Louise Rawson, Reserves:- Nicola Fletcher, Emily Jones, Katrina McEleney, Carol Western, Holly Wright.
