Worksop crowned Bassetlaw champions

WORKSOP Cricket Club have clinched the Bassetlaw Championship title, and promotion to the Notts Premier League.

The Central Avenue men needed three points to finish ahead of rivals Farnsfield, from their visit to Anston on Saturday.

Chad Keegan and Vipinlal Manikoth both came through with vital half centuries, in Worksop’s total of 188, with Anston taking all 10 wickets.

Worksop’s return to the Notts Premier is their first since 1999.
