THANK YOU, DARREN! 💚

On behalf of everyone at Beacon Cricket Club, we’d like to say a huge thank you to Darren Proctor, who, following the washout at Newquay to bring the season to a close, has decided to hang up his boots after an incredible 30 seasons at the club.

And what a career it has been. 🤯

Darren’s Beacon 1st XI league career:

🏏 550 games out of a possible 569
🏃 10,640 runs
💯 5 centuries
5️⃣0️⃣ 50 half-centuries
🎯 491 wickets
🔥 6 five-wicket hauls
🙌 222 catches
🏃‍♂️ 31 run outs

Across those 550 league games came:

✅ 291 wins
❌ 221 losses
🤝 3 ties
🌧️ 35 abandonments

And along the way…

🏆 County Division One Champions
🏆 Cornwall T20 Centenary Winners
⬆️ 2 promotions
⬇️ 2 relegations

But beyond the statistics, 30 seasons have brought an awful lot of memories, stories, laughs and friendships — and Darren has been a huge part of what makes Beacon Cricket Club what it is.

In Darren’s own words:

“A massive thank you to everyone I’ve had the pleasure of playing alongside over the years who has made playing for Beacon such a huge part of my life. It’s been an absolute privilege and, more importantly, it’s been a hell of a lot of fun, with so many laughs!”

And thankfully, this isn't quite goodbye…

“However, I’m certainly not disappearing. I’ll still be heavily involved at Beacon beyond the boundary rope, with my committee duties, youth coaching and supporting the club in any way I can.”

So, from everyone at Beacon — thank you, Darren, for your hard work and dedication both on and off the field over the years.

A true Beacon legend. 🏏

Enjoy your retirement from playing — you’ve certainly earned it! 👏👏

Well, we tried!
Unfortunately the weather got the better of our first 6-a-side competition, but we did manage to get some cricket in!
Thank you to all of the 8 teams who played and everyone else who came out and supported the day, despite the dodgy forecast!
Thank you to Damian and Sarah at John Brewer Stairlifts who kindly sponsored the day.

The competition was all in aid of our fundraiser to install and artificial wicket at the ground to support the growth of our Youth and Women’s teams. If couldn’t join us today but would like to contribute you can do this here https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/qr/9lxX79bl?utm_campaign=thanksShare&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=shortlink
