Brandon clinched the championship of the Under-15 division when they defeated Bishop Auckland in a play-off.

Bishops, who had won the south division, managed only 61 for seven as Gary Brown captured three wickets for 17 runs in five overs and Ian Myers returned two for ten, also from a five overs spell.

The target proved no difficulty to the North Section winners, Brandon, who conceded just three wickets. Following the dismissal of Jamie Robinson for 15, Chris Lawson carried his bat for 18.
