Long Sutton are champions of Lincolnshire Division One South and they’ll play Moulton Harrox and Spalding Town in Championship South next season after the latter’s relegation.
Sutton faced second place Freiston in a title decider and their bowlers kept their cool to win by 42 runs away from home.
After being put in, Sutton lost Rajan Sangha during a wicket maiden opening over from Manish Kumar (2-5).
But Calvin Bird (64) and Daniel Oldfield (47) responded with a 109 run partnership to get them going.
Sutton were 127/2 when Bird fell and lost wickets regularly thereafter.
Barry Stanway (21) and Daniel Plant (20 not out) scored some vital runs but the visitors would be disappointed to be 173 all out in the 43rd over.
It meant they had to bowl well to stop Freiston leap-frogging them into first place ahead of the last game in the season.
They bowled well as a unit though and soon reduced Freiston to 55-6, Rob Simpson (3-17) and Joshua Baker (2-32) doing the damage while Stanway (0-23) was also frugal at the other end.
A 50 partnership between Hssan Raza Sadiq (39) and Rajeshwar Guddatti (25) jangled a few nerves but their innings were ended by Jake Burton (1-47) and Oldfield (1-7) respectively.
Uddyan Hansana (2-3) then mopped up the tail to seal the league title with a game to spare.
* A brilliant 100 from Walter Kinlock was a highlight for Spalding Town but the yfinished the Lincolnshire Premier Division season 22 points from safety.
The overseas player opened the batting and hit 107 from just 79 balls as Spalding batted first at Woodhall Spa in their final game of the season.
It included a partnership of 118 with Divyeah Vaseeharan (32).
But no-one else managed to get going after that, apart from Josh Lawrence who scored 43 batting at nine to help his side post 244 before being out in the 48th over.
Barnaby Dring (2-56) and Nilantha Atapattu (1-46) gave Spalding a great start with the ball having Woodsall 36/3.
At that point though Tayyab Tahir joined Harry Hollingsworth and the pair put on 190 for the fourth wicket.
Tahir aped Kinlock as the aggressor with his 134 from 105 balls.
While Joshua White (1-28) had him caught behind Hollingsworth (75 not out) steered his side home to the win with nine overs in hand.
* A disappointing season for Moulton Harrox ended with a defeat to Orton Park.
Last year’s Championship South champions didn’t opt for promotion and will finish this season in seventh position.
In their final match of the season they were bowled out for `110 in just over 26 overs while chasing Orton’s 287/6.
Ruari Drumm claimed 4-37 after the hosts elected to bat but Kieran Judd’s 115 and 50 from Samuel Tyler helped amass the big total.
Drumm (31) also top scored with the bat with the other batsmen failing to reach double figures, bar Harry
Shersby (24) and Paul Edgeller (21), leading a mini recovery from 34/6.
* Both Long Sutton and Spalding’s second strings lost in Division Two.
After being bowled out for 79 in less than 25 overs, Sutton IIs were able to take five wickets against Boston with Callum John (3-18) leading the fight alongside loan players Sanka Sumanapala and Erander Kumara (both 1-15).
The hosts chased down that total in their 17th over.
Spalding put Royal Boston in but fell to 130 all out while chasing 180 all out.
John Healy (2-13), Lewis White (2-21), James Frascella (2-30), Raj Hardy (1-26), Max Cooper (1-36) and Dan Mulley (1-38) all struck for Spalding.
Skipper Mulley hit 39 in the reply and Frascella 30 not out.
