For the first time in recent history the Circle's bowlers won through to the semi-final stage of the competition.
The semi-finals and the final were played at St. Joseph's Parish Centre in Chorley but, because of Bank Holiday commitments, three of the teams star players were unable to compete.
However, three new signing were made and after intensive workouts with the team's trainer and psychologist (or should that be 'psychiatrist') and inspired by the successes of Team GB, the team faced up to the challenge presented by Blackpool Circle.
Success isn't achieved overnight and the might of Blackpool's bowlers could not be overcome.
Well done Blackpool! (...but they were beaten in the final by Burnley Circle (with their towels tucked in their back pockets.)
Inspired - Perspired - but not expired!
