   Report supplied by Shirley Reed:

   Breaking from tradition, Steep held their annual tournament in June rather than at the end of the season. Although the weather started fine and warm, a sharp shower later in the day curtailed one round of matches.

   By that stage, Stedham had won through to the final by defeating Fittleworth 87-39, Milland 73-66, Tillington 64-40 and Midhurst. Meanwhile Steep had won through their section defeating Ebernoe 64-47, Elsted 59-35, Lodsworth 44-64 and Three Counties 29-56.

   In a splendidly contested final, Stedham batted first and smashed their way to a total of 63 and Steep all but caught them falling short by just 1 run to finish runners up.

   Sarah Downs (Stedham) won the trophy for the most runs (163), Hannah Lindsey (Steep) took the most wickets (7) and Lynn Booker (Elsted) held on to 3 catches.
