Our captain Steve Gawthorpe played his last game against Wakefield Thornes on Sunday 5th July 2009 as he retired from cricket, we lost to Thornes as they posted a huge 350-4; Umar Mirza 143, Dhanessha Seneratne 64 (40 overs) but Netherton kept them out in the field for 40 overs as in reply we get 138-5; Jake Oldroyd 62, Steve Gawthorpe 12* (2x4s). THE CLUB WOULD LIKE TO WISH STEVE ALL THE BEST IN HIS CRICKET RETIREMENT.
