Knockout finals

The results of the finals of this season’s knockout competitions are here.

A very close Plate final required extra time to separate the teams, with the Swan & Railway emerging victorious against the Griffin.

In the main event of the evening, the Alexandra had a slightly more comfortable win against the Tiviot to win the Dave Badley Cup.

The Alexandra becomes only the third team in quiz league history to complete a league-and-cup double, the feat having been achieved

first by The Blossoms (1989–90) and then twice by all-conquering Chunky (2001–02, 2007–08).

WIST Champions’ Cup

Last night saw the final of this season’s WIST Champions’ Cup, in which newly crowned Stockport champions The Alexandra were narrowly

defeated by Withington Quiz League top dogs The Prodigals.  A full report on the quiz, including Greg Spiller’s excellent question paper, can

be found on the WithQuiz website.

 

Presentation Night

(2 May 2025)

The end-of-season Presentation Night is on Thursday 15 May at Our Lady’s Social Club, Flint Street, Shaw Heath.  Jamie Evans (Griffin)

has very kindly offered to present the quiz, which will start at 8.30 p.m. promptAs always it would be good to see as many teams as

possible in attendance.  Please remember to bring a raffle prize.  There will be a £1 per person entry fee and guest teams are welcome.

Attendees should be aware that the closure of the Edgeley roundabout may necessitate a little extra travelling time.  Parking outside the club

is rather limited, so you may need to use the (still open) car park at the top of Mercian Way.

 

Worth the wait

(2 May 2025)

At only their 32nd attempt the Alexandra team have been crowned League Champions after their win against HMRUFC last night.  The Alex

shared the 2017 title in a three-way tie with Tiviot and Smart Italics, but this is their first ever outright win.  The Swan & Railway are this

season’s runners-up by just one point, whilst the Tiviot pipped Smart Alex for third place by the same margin.
