Weston Central League retained the Presidents Cup for the fourth year running against the Wrington Vale League.

THE second leg of the Presidents Cup took place between the Wrington Vale and Central Leagues at Nailsea Social Club.

With a 45-pin defeat in the first leg, Wrington were always going to find it hard to pull back the pins on this low-scoring alley, played in a three sets of four format.

The Central took the first set by two pins and Wrington pulled back nine in the second. The third set was going the way of the Wrington boys until three spares from the Central saw off any Wrington chances as Central won by 10 pins, securing the cup for the fourth year running.

Scores: Wrington Vale 481 (Wayne Harding 47, Andy Harris 46), Central 491 (Neil Middle 50, Geoff Poole 48).
