Millennium Cup Winners 2026

The Boxford Blues are the STL Millennium Cup winners for 2026, after defeating Arclight 48-42 in a nail biting game at Arclight BC. This is the Blues second Millennium Cup win in 3 seasons, and the fourth success overall for Boxford.

After a slow start the Blues were 14 shots down at 5 ends, but then the come back started and they were only 25-18 down at the 9 end half-way stage. The second half of the game belonged to the Blues turning a 7 shot deficit into a 6 shot victory. The extra end was also won, just in case Arclight managed to score a 5 on the last end of the game.

Team:

• Graham Skillen (S), Gillian Barnes, Peter Norris
• Steve Marszal (S), Kevin Colling, Cynthia Hollingsworth
• Mike Billington (S), Barry Richell, Gill Billington

Well done to captain Peter Norris and the team, plus a mention also for Bernadine Dwyer, Debbie Miller, Mary Dallas, and Jerry Zoers who played in earlier rounds of the competition.
