2025 was an exciting season in the W&D league: Lions, who play in Division 1, finished in sixth place in a very competitive mid-table mini-league with eight wins. Acorns were champions of Division 4 with 11 wins across the 16 games and this season will play alongside both Stags and Eagles in Division 3; Stags finished 2025 in a highly respectable third place, just five points off promotion, also on the back of 11 wins; while Eagles finished in seventh.

In addition, the Spencer Trophy was presented in memory of Derek C Spencer by his wife, Chris, both successful bowlers at the Club. It is competed for annually by our teams in the Whitchurch and District League in a variety of formats on a points basis.
