C1 GRAND FINAL RUN DOWN!

We lost the toss to ROCCCs on an overcast day, which ended up suiting us nicely. Rostrevor got off to a quick and slightly loose start, reaching 19 before Remy Colmer picked up the first wicket. From there, runs and wickets came at a steady rate, with them sitting at 4/104.

That’s when William “Norm” Bourchier took control, ripping through the middle order with an incredible spell of 4 wickets in 5 balls. Alongside Sebastian Barry, Rostrevor quickly collapsed, losing 6/12 in a decisive passage of play. Max Boucher then chipped in with a wicket to wrap things up for them to end up on 116.

Needing 117 to win, we didn’t get off to the best start, finishing day one at 2/18. Morgan Young and Bobby then steadied things early on day two, moving us to 3/47 with us needing 70 to win. Bobby and Nick Stanley continued the job before Bobby was dismissed for a well-made 45, leaving us at 4/99.

A couple of quick wickets saw us slip to 6/102 and made things a bit tense, but Stano and Bouch stayed composed to guide us home, with Bouch hitting the winning runs, ending up on 6/120.

A strong team performance overall, with special mention to Bobby for an outstanding contribution with both bat and ball.

C1 Premiers

Just to clear some things up…..

ALLLLLRIIGGHHTTYYYY BLUES!!!

Massive weekend of cricket ahead! This is why we play. It’s grand final time!

Our C1 team look to take on ROCCs for the flag. Game will be on both Saturday and Sunday this weekend. Let’s get a massive crowd out there both days to cheers on our lads!

Let’s go Blues 💙💙💙

A tale of two games on the weekend unfortunately.

Our LO2 team was valiant against a good Modbury side on the weekend. We know they’ll be back better than ever next year!

Now to our C1 team it was an absolutely demolishing of Modbury, at 2-7 we had every right to be nervous but important knocks from Will Bourchier and Morgan Young helped steady the ship to 9/192, a good total after day 1. Then our bowlers put on a dominant display, spear headed by Remy Colmer with 4/12 (13). They will be playing ROCS at home in the grand final.

On to next week!

OKAY BLUES HERE WE GO, IT IS SEMI FINAL TIME!

What a weekend of cricket this is shaping up to be, both C1 and LO2 will be at home against Modbury on the weekend.

C1 game will be both Saturday and Sunday, with LO2 playing on Saturday.

Marquees will be set up. Let’s try and get as many people out as we can to help support everyone, even if you can only come for a little bit.

That is a wrap on season 2025/26 for our A3, LO1 and LO6 teams.

Our A grade valiantly showed that they deserved to stay in A3 next year.

Unfortunately the season didn’t go the way for our LO1 team facing some tough opponents.

Our LO6 team also had a good season with the vibes been amazing in that group of lads and hoping to have another run around next year!

Now to our C1 and LO2 teams, both showed they are formidable forces in their competitions both finishing top and earning their rights to home finals!

More to come!

Selections for the final round of the year!

A huge win for our A3 teams helps them to secure the right to stay in A3 next year. A tremendous all-round performance from everyone!

Unfortunately our C1 team got handed their first loss of the season, but maybe a loss they needed to have.

Our LO2 team also unfortunately loss.

Both C1 and LO2 teams must win this week to finish top of their grades!

LO6 team also had a fun run around Brighton!
