The 2022 Challenge Matches


To be eligible to take part all players must be a fully paid up member of the A.M.M.G.C.C.

The matches consist of two players from each member club and ideally, one of those players should be that club's current Captain.


As a reminder, in 2021, Lancashire lead by 24pts at the half way stage of the match


Cheshire, as expected fought back and won the 2nd Leg by 16pts but

Lancashire's Total score in the 2nd Leg, even with two men down on the day, was enough to secure a rare but satisfying victory for the Captain of Captains 2021, Derek Howard Esq.
