Castle 'B' scoop a Cup double

 
      They finished bottom of Divison One but, boosted by several 'A' team players, won the Guardian Trophy and the Sid Lane Trophy 24 hours later.
In the Guardian Trophy Castle 'B' won their semi-final against Bourne Town 'B' on all four rinks before clinching a tighter final against Spalding Town. Town had drawn rinks 2-2 with Ayscoughfee in their semi-final, but a big 36-8 win for Cliff Searson with Graham Chappell and Tony Baily was the backbone of the team's passage. Town were a little slow out of blocks in the final and Castle 'B' were looking comfortable at 48-28 after ten ends. Town then put together a better second half of the final, although only Ian Lawson with Martin and Phil Spencer managed a rink win.
Results: Bourne Town 'B' 55 v Castle 'B' 102; Spalding Town 87 v Ayscoughfee 68. Final - Town 66 Castle 'B' 94.
In the Sid Lane Trophy Castle 'B' beat Holbeach United Services 70-57.
