Results of Semi-Finals played on August 7th:
The semi-finals saw the 2004 winners, Bollington, at home to Parkfield Liscard, while Middlewich travelled to Burnage. While Parkfield Liscard pulled off something of a surprise victory over Bollington, Burnage beat Middlewich. The latter result was to be expected in line with the form of the two sides in the Cheshire County League Division 2.
FINAL:
Burnage, with home advantage, won the Lovelane Cheshire Shield for the first time when they beat Parkfield Liscard on Sunday 28th August. Batting first Burnage totalled 254-8 in 45 overs, Mohammed Kamran hitting 93 and Sohail Abbas 49 not out. Parkfield Liscard started well in reply reaching 91-1. However they then declined to 167 all out, Gary Ratcliffe top scoring with 54.
