Balderton will play in the South Notts League top flight next summer after other results went their way on the last day of the Division A season.
While the Coronation Street outfit were going down to a heavy defeat at home to Rolls Royce Leisure on Saturday afternoon, their fellow relegation strugglers Attenborough and Hyson Green Carrington Caribbeans suffered losses that proved fatal as they made the drop.
Visitors Rolls Royce declared on 290 for nine, with Marlon Franklyn the pick of the Balderton bowlers with five for 56 and Paul Colcomb taking three for 112.
Balderton were bowled out for 186 in reply, with Dominic Wiffin (43) and Pete Lambert (36) providing the most resistance.
