Berwick poised to pounce

HE final round of pennant was completed at the weekend and promises an excellent round of finals matches for Berwick Bowling Club teams.
After the end of games played on Saturday, five of Berwick’s eight pennant sides will now be elevated to a higher section next season.
Two of these (sides three and four) went to a higher section from the previous year and both have finished on top of their section this season.
