Ross-on-Wye BC dominated Herefordshire CBA team competitions by winning the Hereford Times Cup and both divisions of the county league.

Captain Phil Bridges collected the Hereford Times Cup for the third time in a row after his side beat Hereford by 20 shots in the final.

Despite being drawn away in all the previous rounds, Ross beat creditable opposition on the way to the final and the game at Kington was a close and sporting affair, Roger Barnes winning the last end in fading light to clinch victory. Rob Gwilliam's rink won by 14 shots to ease Ross home in the semi-final at Ledbury.

In the Herefordshire County League, Ross B team won Division 1 by three points after losing only two games, while the A team lost only once on the way to the Division 2 title.

It made Ross the first club to hold all three major trophies in the same season and they were also runners-up in the Wyevern League.
