The 2016 A Grade Pennant finalists have been decided. Following the conclusion of round 7 of this year’s event the results were very close in both
Divisions.
A count back of games was required in Division 1. Charlestown finished on top, losing only 1 match during the Rounds. A count back was required
to seperate Toronto, Belmont and Waratah when they all finished on 4 match wins. Toronto prevailed with 2 more games than the other pair.
The Division 1 finalists will be Charlestown and Toronto.
Division 2 was a very close affair with Newcastle finishing undefeated on top with 6 match points. In close pursuit were Nelson Bay and Pacific Dunes,
whose match in the final round would decide who joined Newcastle in the Final. The hard luck story belongs to Pacific Dunes, who for the
third year running have failed narrowly at the last hurdle to gain promotion to Division 1. Nelson Bay, on the other hand, are celebrating
making the final of A grade Pennants for the first time in their history.
The Division 2 finalists will be Newcastle and Nelson Bay

Division 1 Final (Charlestown & Toronto) will tee off from 8.30am
