In the ladies, Cheryl Hall won her second World Sporting title – while in Juniors, Brett Winstanley added another to his impressive form book.
In the team event England took 3 of the 5 gold medals in Seniors, Juniors and Veterans, America won both Ladies and Super Vets whilst Scotland and Wales took home a Silver medal apiece (Seniors and Veterans respectively).
