WALNEY Park A sealed promotion to Deltawaite Ltd Furness Senior Citizens’ Bowling League Division One without taking to the green.

Having completed their fixtures, they had to wait and see if rivals Glaxo could gain the seven points they needed for promotion when taking on King Alfred A.

The game saw the Alfred side winning 7-3, thus sealing promotion for their neighbours.

The scheduled final round of fixtures were not fully completed, as the weather wiped some games out.

But as well as Park's promotion, the second relegation spot in Division One was also settled.

North Scale closed their programme with an 8-2 win at home to Ulverston Cons, however they fell three points short of survival, with Hawcoat Park A holding on to their status.

The Villagers must rue their downturn in form over the last month, as they won three more games overall than their rivals yet failed to capitalise.

The title winners were Hawcoat Park in Division One, with Kirkby being the successful team in Division Two.

The Division One merit cron is yet to be settled.

The League thanked Deltawaite Limited for their support during the past season.
