BOLEHILL TEAMS DO BATTLE IN PRESTIGIOUS LEAGUE CUP FINAL

BOLEHILL INSTITUTE No 1 and No 2 teams on final night.
L-R: Mick Bunting, Colin Marchington, Keith Robertson, Ian Peacock, Martin Forster, Ian Birks, Simon Zoppi, Ricki Slack and Andrew Brough.

A HISTORIC night took place recently as for the first time ever Bolehill Institute provided both finalists for the Darley Dale Snooker League's prestigious Captains Cup Team final.
And it was the No 1 team who took the spoils to retain the trophy they won last year as they triumphed overall on the points aggregate format competition by 298 to 213.
Bolehill No 1 earlier came through matches with Gladiators Social Club, Jaxx Q Club and Marehay Miners Welfare previously while the No 2 team had seen off Belper Strutt Club No 1 and Edgefold Club en route to the final.
Until last season, it had been 15 years since Bolehill lifted the trophy, on that occasion the late president, chairman and former captain of the No 1 team Alan Hopkinson leading the team to victory so it was a fitting tribute that both teams should go all the way in the current season.
