18. 2018 - A mixed bag


A tough season for the club which was turned around later in the summer. A run of tough results for the 1st XI and the departure of Steve Rawcliffe meant that a relagtion battle was on our hands. Tim Bernstein stood in to skipper the 1sts and despite some decent efforts, we were struggling heading into August, but thankfully three inspired performances to end the season meant we retained our Division 4 status. The 2nds led by Kenny Crabtree enjoyed another battling season, highlights of which included Kenny claiming his maiden centruy with the winning shot away at Ingol chasing down 185 and also Joe Rawcliffe taking his first 5-fer, both of which we celebrated at the club end of season presentation night, along with awarding Steve a wonderful painting of him bowling in full flow, in recognition of his wonderful contributioun to the club over the years as our leading wicket taker of all time.
