FINALS NIGHT
With the country, still in the process of recovering from the effects of the pandemic, rather than trying to run a full Winter League season, the SCBA decided to launch a regionalised league for 2021/22, to cut down on both the number of games, and travel.

In the end there were 21 teams competing in 4 groups, with the top two teams from each group qualifying for Finals Night. Unfortunately Needham Market were unable to attend, which left 7 teams to play on the night.

With time only allowing for 4 games for each team, it would not be possible for all teams to play all the other teams.

First Half
As might have been expected, Barking won both their games, beating Bentley and Burstall. Bentley took a surprise win over Brockley, who won thier other game, a one shot victory over Claydon. Burstall had one win, over Bentley. Chelmondiston were the other team to take 2 wins, over Withersfield and Claydon, while Claydon lost both games, as did Withersfield.

Second Half
In the end the results were fairly evenly spread, no one won all their games, but neither did anyone lose all their games.

Bentley weren't able to improve on their one win in the first half, finishing on 2 points, in 7th place.

Claydon did improve on their first half games, although they were only able to win one, but it was a big win, and could be said to have determined the final outcome of the night. They finished 6th.

Brockley were perhaps the unluckiest team on the night, they won 2 and lost 2, and the games they lost were only by one shot and three shots respectively (although the two games they did win were only by one shot each). They ended up 5th, on 4 points.

Burstall picked up one win in each half, including one over Claydon, and with one shot more than Brockley, came home in 4th place.

Having lost both games in the first half, Withersfield won both in the second, picking up 3 shots more than Burstall to finish 3rd.

Barking won 3 games, but suffered one big loss, which left them on 6 points and 44 shots, which was only good enough for the runner-up spot.

Chelmondiston came close to taking all four of their games, they won three, and only lost the other by a single shot, but their 6 points and 47 shots were just enough to take the overall win.
