2 July. Two Midlands champions! Nottinghamshire win the u180, and Warwickshire the u120. The Warks u100 team lost to Essex. The Devon CA site also has a report of the very exciting u180 final match. The result of one of the u100 semi final matches was the subject of an appeal and the controler ruled that Lancs had fielded an ineligible player in the match against Essex. After removal of the ineligible player's score and deducting a penalty point, Essex went through to the finals where they beat Warwickshire. Full results of all finals and many other matches are are on the ECF website. [Result of u100 semifinal and final match corrected 8 July. Apologies for getting this and thanks to Mick Norris who has kept the editor on his toes.]
