Derby win the Tewkesbury Shield for the 3rd time

Well done to the DDA team, led by Tim Peverett, who won the Tewkesbury Shield competition yesterday. As we have previously came first in 2007 and 2009, I expect the next win to be in 2013...

1st Derby DA (66 faults)

2nd Gloucester & Bristol (76 faults)

3rd Oxford Society (88 faults)

4th Oxford DG (103 faults)

5th Winchester and Portsmouth DG (110 faults)

6th Hereford DG (116 faults)

7th Bath & Wells (129 faults)
