Report

Donegal’s St. Johnston won the North West Cricket Union Warwick Wallpapers Senior Cup Final in 1982 defeating Tyrone’s Strabane by an innings and 65 runs in the Final. The Senior Cup Final was the traditional highlight of the North West Cricket Union calendar and for the first time attracted serious sponsorship in the form of Derry’s Warwick Wallpaper.

The Warwick Wallpaper sponsored Division 1 League was won by Donemana for the fourth year in succession after being challenged by Strabane, Sion Mills, Limavady and Brigade at different points over the season. Donemana finished the season with 14 wins and 4 losses, three wins ahead of nearest rivals Sion Mills.

Bready were relegated to Division 2 for 1983 and replaced by Western Counties who would be competing at Division 1 level for the first time in the club’s history after a playoff win versus Ardmore. [References: 1]
