🔒 LOCKED IN FOR 2026 🔒

Cheltenham Cricket Club is excited to officially announce Blake Barnes has re-signed for the 2026 season 💙🤍

We mentioned earlier in the week sometimes as a club you strike gold. We absolutely lucked out last year when Blake joined us. Blake found himself on a hattrick in just his 2nd over for the club, making an immediate impact.

Throughout the season Blake made regular contributions with the ball and easily proved himself as the best #11 bat in the comp and saved us on a few occasions.

Blake's incredible contribution to the club both on and off the field over his first season at Cheltenham was rewarded by the players voting him as the 2025/26 Tom Hardman perpetual trophy winner.

📊 2025/26 Season Stats
• 7x Not Out (Out of 8 innings)
• 19 Wickets
• Tom Hardman perpetual trophy winner

We love having Blake around the club and welcome both him and his partner Hollie back for this season.
