THE first Warrington and North Cheshire Bowls Association 'double header' cup final of the season takes place this Saturday.

The Silcock Cup and Stan Bann Cup deciders, competitions featuring the league's Friday night teams, will be played out at Tetley’s No1 green.

First up is the Stan Bann Cup final starting at noon (11.30am practice) between Monk Sports (+4) and current Section C table toppers Grange D (+2).

The Silcock Cup will commence at 3pm (practice from 2.30pm) and is a mouthwatering all Section A contest, with Woolston A (+1) taking on last year’s Section A winners Alford Hall (0).

Woolston were losing finalists in 2022 and will concede -5 on the aggregate scores.

The final is also a repeat of last season's Centenary Cup in which Alford Hall came out on top.
