Rural Branch Striking Competition Winners

The Rural Branch Striking competition Trophy

The trophy is competed for by rural branch towers which enter in the yearly competition. The trophy was made and presented to the branch by Brian Angell in 1976, although it appears the competition was started in 1968. It is the tradition that the winner of the competition goes forward to the association Croome trophy. To date although rural branch have entered every year we have never won the Croome trophy (The figure in brackets after the year is the position the tower came in the Croome trophy)
