Weather hit programme

RAIN virtually wiped out the local cricket programme on Saturday.
Stratford were among the casualities as their Birmingham League Division One clash against Wombourne was abandoned without a ball being bowled at Swan’s Nest Lane.
Stratford, who find themselves at the foot of the table, visit early leaders Shifnal this Saturday.
