17/09/2026

Saturday saw the final league fixture of the season for the 1st XI, who hosted Withnell Fold at School Lane.

Skipper Dave Atherton won the toss with his lucky £2 coin and elected to bat. On a well used wicket, and with the weather we had through the week, he decided that batting was the best option, as the pitch would only deteriorate throughout the day. The game was reduced to 41 overs due to the morning rain.

Dave and Ryan got us off to a steady start on a tough batting wicket and a slow outfield, taking 1s and 2s where possible. In the 11th and 12th overs, Ryan made the most of bad balls, sending two sailing over the rope for 6. The pair were going well when Atho (11) was dismissed caught and bowled, leaving the score at 44-1 off 15.4 overs.

Out came young overseas Carter Woodgate to join Ryan in the middle for his final appearance before returning to New Zealand for his home season. Carter continued where Atho had left off, rotating the strike where possible and sticking with Ryan, who was going very well and exploiting the bad balls.

Ryan (89) was eventually bowled in the 36th over, ending a solid innings. Carter (28) then followed just three balls later, caught, as we entered the final few overs of the innings and the decision was made to go for it. Luke Murray (19) capped off the innings with an entertaining 16 balls, hitting two 4s and one 6 before being dismissed caught.

The innings ended 158/5 from our 41 overs, which looked to be a fairly strong total on a track that certainly favoured the bowlers.

After tea, Carter Woodgate and Luke Murray began the attack. A strong start from both kept the run rate down, and there were strong early signs for the bowlers. Murray struck first in the 10th over, with a magnificent one-handed catch from Ryan Hughes sending the opener on his way, with the score at 18-1.

Jay Davies joined the attack in the 15th over and struck with his 6th ball, with yet another one-handed grab from Ryan Hughes. The score was now 51-2.

A strong 49 run partnership for Withnell Fold saw them reach the 100 mark before Luke Murray struck again, with Tom Barker taking the catch at catching extra cover.

The next wicket fell in the 29th over as Jay Davies got the ball to grip in the pitch, finding the edge and having the batsman caught behind, leaving the visiting side 120-4, needing just 39 runs with 6 wickets remaining and 12 overs to work with.

This wicket began the collapse of Withnell Fold, as the final 6 wickets fell for just 17 runs. These wickets were taken by Ryan Hughes, Carter Woodgate and Jay Davies, with Jay finishing with yet another 5-fer.

Withnell Fold fell short with a score of 137 all out, meaning that the 1st XI finish the season on a high. We finish the season in 5th place another strong season with plenty of positives to take.
"We have had a strong season this year and there have been so many brilliant performances. Oh, and we won a cup! The thing that makes me most proud, is the spirit within the club. It can't be taken for granted and we will continue to look after it. I'd like to thank the people that support us throughout the season. Whether it be doing stuff to get us on the pitch, or cheering us on from the sidelines. You're the best. To our overseas player (Carter Woodgate), thanks for being a champion lad and enjoy your summer back in NZ.

So samshed. See you all in 2027." - Captain David Atherton

⚫🟡WEEKEND RESULTS AND MAN OF THE MATCH REPORTS⚫🟡

⚫🟡1st XI⚫🟡
The 1s took the battle bus over to Fleetwood CC for their penultimate match of the season. Driving up the weather perked up and showed promise for a dry, windy day near the coast. Having lost the toss, Fleetwood CC elected to field. Captain David Atherton and Ryan Hughes took to the crease. Unfortunately a dicy decision saw Hughes out lbw after facing just three balls. Carter Woodgate joined Atherton at the crease where the pair worked well to rotate the strike where possible. Unfortunately Atherton was also given lbw on a further LBW at the start of the 4th over. Small partnerships through the middle order and a short period from Jay Davies (11) saw the 1s reach a total of 69 all out. A total that felt wasn't enough.

Fleetwood CC requested to have teas rather than heading straight back out, which gave the 1st XI a chance to come up with a plan of action.

Woodgate opened the bowling with young Liam Dever, and in his first over Woodgate dealt the first blow dismissing the opener and breaking middle stump - setting the tone for his spell. Dever started well helping to apply pressure from the other end, however defending a small total the call was made to give someone else a chance to help make a break through. In the 7th over Woodgate struck again, leaving Fleetwood CC 29-2. Ambrose joined the attack and showed a brilliant controlled effort applying further pressure. The 9th over saw Woodgate send a further two stumps tumbling putting Fleetwood on the backfoot now 31-4. Like the 9th over, Woodgate took another two wickets in his 6th over, putting all the pressure onto Fleetwood as they stood 40-6. Woodgates final over saw yet another 2 wickets fall, leaving Fleetwood 47-8 from 13 overs. Needing only 23 runs with 42 overs, the game seemed to now be in the balance. Jay Davies took over from Woodgate, will the teams hope of continuing his recent success. With the help of Ambrose on the other end continuing to apply pressure on the other end, Davies dealt the final two blows on his 7th and 8th deliveries to leave Fleetwood all out for 58.

A true showcase of class from the 1st defending a small total. A true game changing spell from Carter!

The 1s have their last game next week at School Lane, where they will face off against Withnell Fold CC. Can they finish the season with another win?

⚫🟡2nd XI ⚫🟡
Playing their last game at home, the 2s elected to bat after winning the toss. Aaron Craven and Connor Marshall opened the batting and started strong. They formed an early partnership of 16 before Marshall was bowled in the 4th over. Phil Bradley-Jones joined Craven for a short spell before unfortunately being bowled for 0. Captain Anthony Dever joined the crease and crunched a lovely 4 off his first delivery. The pair formed a partnership working well to slowly rotate the strike and send any loose balls down to the boundary. Dever was unfortunately bowled in 14th over, finishing 10 from 16 deliveries. Small contribution from the middle order helped add to the score, where Lee Walsh joined Craven in continuing the efforts. Craven was later bowling in the 23rd over, finishing 47 from 76 balls, including five 4s. A valiant effort. Contributions from the tailend meant that Walsh finish 20* from 44 balls, and the 2nds total was 118 from 33.3 overs.

After teas, taking to the field saw Bradley-Jones & Craven opening the bowling. The pair worked hard and it paid off, Bradley-Jones striking in his 1st and a run out in his 2nd overs, meant that at the 10 over mark Wyre CC were 16-2. A fantastic catch from young Jaiden Walsh meant that Craven picked up his 1st wicket of the match. Craven later struck again in the 14th over to see off the remaining opener. Peter Cox and Neil Disley joined the attack, working hard to restrict any opportunities for scoring runs. The hard work paid off, and Cox struck in the 27th and 31st overs. Cox finished his spell of 10 overs, taking 2 wickets for only 19 runs. Young Charlie Haigh joined the attack, and in his first over struck. Charlie's spell of 3 overs finished 1-15. Bradley-Jones returned to the attack with Jaiden Walsh. With 4 overs in the innings remaining, and the game currently sitting 91-7, the 2s needed the last two wickets whilst Wyre required 7 runs per over. Bradley-Jones picked up his second wicket at the end of the 38th over putting further pressure on the remaining batsman. Jaiden Walsh, staying cool, calm and collected claimed the last wicket with a caught & bowled ended Wyres innings on 98, 20 runs short.

With that, the 2nd finish their season in high spirits and take 4th place in the Division.

"I honestly can’t believe the season is over for the 2s. It doesn’t seem 5 minutes ago I was on the mower getting the outfield prepared for the first game and welcoming our new overseas (Carter) to the club as he’d just arrived. I’d like to thank all the players for their efforts throughout the season. It’s been a pleasure to share the field with you all.
I’d also like to thank everyone who’s come down to support the 2s throughout the summer. Your support is greatly appreciated and certainly not taken for granted. I hope you’ve enjoyed your summer down 'The Club'. Enjoy the winter all, April 2027 will soon be here."- Captain Anthony Dever.

A fantastic effort from both sides once again bringing home 24 points.

⚫🟡MAN OF THE MATCH ⚫🟡

This week's 1st XI Man of the Match was a simple decision. With his superb bowling spell, and top scoring with that the bat, is none other than over seas superstar Carter Woodgate. Helping to defend a small total, Carter demonstrated determination and true skill claiming 8 wickets for only 16 runs from his 7 over spell. With the bat, Carter scored 19 from 36 balls. A fantastic effort Woody!

This week's 2nd Man of the Match is Aaron Craven. Aaron showed fantastic grit with the bat, scoring 47 from 76 balls, including five 4s. Aaron also took 2 wickets from his 10 over spell, going for only 26 runs with two maidens. Well done Az!

Thank you to & for sponsoring Woody and Az!

Thank you to all of our sponsors and supporters for their continued support for the season.

⚫🟡 T20 FINALS ⚫🟡

The T20 Squad faced off against Preston Strikers CC in the Palace Shield Twenty20 Division 2 Playoffs Final on Monday 31st August.

A very heavy celebration for the union of Mr and Mrs Hughes meant that everyone felt a little rough. Regardless, we were in high spirits for the game ahead. With the weather threatening the game, everyone banded together to get the pitch fit and ready for play to begin.

Winning the toss with his trusty £2 coin, captain David Atherton elected to bat first. Opening the batting, Luke Murray and Ryan Hughes took to the crease. Much to Murray's dismay, the first ball stopped short of the rope. However, the lads pushed hard and ran a begrudging 3. True to fashion, Hughes cleared the boundary in the first over and set the standard for the day. The pair worked well together, stealing singles and punishing loose balls to the boundary at every opportunity. At the end of the power play, the pair had a partnership of 45.

Continuing to work hard and pushing through, in the 12th over of the game, Hughes brought up his 50 from 39 balls. Unfortunately, shortly after, Hughes was finally caught for 58 from 47 balls, including three massive 6s and two 4s. A fantastic knock from the newlywed.

The overseas superstar joined Murray at the crease, again working well to rotate the strike and keep the score ticking over. With the last 4 overs to come, the score currently sat at 110-1. With wickets in hand, the lads knew they had to press on to apply the pressure. In the attempt to do so, Murray was unfortunately bowled, finishing on 39 from 44 balls.

In came the skipper, knowing what job was needed, and he was the man to do it. The new pair pushed even harder, taking 27 runs from the last 12 balls to leave the T20 Squad in a strong position of 144-2 from their 20 overs.

A quick hydration break, and the lads took the field. Woodgate and Lee Jackson opened the bowling with the standards they are known for. In their respective 2nd and 3rd overs, both dealt blows to Preston Strikers, cleaning up the top order and leaving Preston Strikers in a precarious position of 29-4 at the end of the power play.

A good day with the bat, but unfortunately not for Murray with the ball, as the Strikers moved to 44-4 at the end of the 7th over. Atherton replaced Murray to help build the pressure and, with the power play now finished, Jay Davies was brought into the attack, with the hopes of continuing the success he's had so far in this year's T20 campaign. And that he did.

In his second over, Davies claimed 3 wickets for 0 runs, trapping two lbw and having one caught in the deep by Alex Gaughan. In his third over, Davies claimed his fourth and fifth wickets, one being bowled and the other caught in the deep by Woodgate. A phenomenal and game-changing spell, finishing with 5/6 from 3 overs.

Woodgate returned to finish his allocated over and, on the fourth ball, trapped the last batsman lbw, leaving Preston Strikers on 76 all out, 68 runs short of the target.

A superb all-round effort from the squad, ending the T20 with a resounding clean sweep.

A huge thank you to all of our sponsors, audience and members for their continued support, not only during the T20 campaign but throughout the entire season.

"Thank you to everyone who came down to support us. It means a great deal to the lads, and we were so happy we got to share the moment with you all. The spirit within the club is what makes it so special, and so much of that comes from people who never step onto the pitch. We are forever grateful to you all. Up the 'Sco!" - Captain David Atherton as

⚫🟡 MAN OF THE MATCH ⚫🟡

At the end of the game, the T20 Squad was presented with the trophy for winning, as well as individual medals for each of the players. The umpires also awarded Man of the Match to the player of their choosing. The Man of the Match for the T20 Final was Jay Davies for his bowling. In his spell of 3 overs, Davies claimed 5 wickets for only 6 runs. A true game-changing spell! Well done, Jay!

Thank you to for sponsoring G'Ale!

⚫🟡 T20 FINALS DAY FIXTURES & TEAM ⚫🟡

Bank holiday Monday (31st August) sees the T20 squad play host and will be taking on Preston Strikers to see who takes home the trophy!

The lads this year have been victorious in each of their matches, with a few close games, decisive victories but above all, overwhelming resolve.

The match will commence at 2pm on Monday, so please come along and support the lads.

In case you haven't seen much, here's a run down of the team:

⚫🟡Luke Murray ⚫🟡

Luke has been a big part of the teams success in the T20 format over the 2 years. An average of 31 at a strike rate of 145 with the bat and a 17.8 average with the ball at an economy of 6.6 proves he is a man you can turn to. To top that off he is an athlete in the field which makes him an ideal 3 dimensional cricketer. A left handed opening bat, Luke will be hoping he can get the batting innings off to a good start and then can make contributions when required with ball in hand too. A dangerous cricketer for opposition teams to watch out for!

⚫🟡Ryan Hughes⚫🟡

Ryan is an opening batsman who is capable of contributing with ball in hand too. He has kept things tight with a bowling economy of 5.6 in t20s and has enjoyed an extremely successful couple of t20 campaigns with the bat scoring 695 runs in 12 innings averaging 87 at an electric strike rate of 177! Ryan is known for his quick scoring and the T20 competition has highlighted that attribute! Known to be a born match winner can Ryan put in another match winning performance on Monday!

⚫🟡Carter Woodgate⚫🟡

Our kiwi overseas has had a great T20 campaign with both bat and ball! He may not have got the wickets he would have hoped for or deserved but with an extraordinary 4.3 economy whilst often bowling 2 power play overs and 2 death overs he has made a vital impact. He has also been vital with the bat in hand and has scored 282 runs in his 6 innings with a whopping 141 average and a strike rate of 130. Any opposition would have him firmly on their watch list and we are sure Carter will have a big say in the final with either bat or ball (or hopefully both)!

⚫🟡Toby Ambrose⚫🟡

Toby, another all rounder, has proven to be a good option with ball in hand. With an average of 15 and an economy of 6.1 Toby has kept things tight whilst also taking a few wickets with him. He also showed his maturity and capability with the bat in the semi final as well scoring an important run a ball 32. It is likely he will be called upon with both bat and ball at some stage in the final and hopefully he can once again showcase some of the same skill and maturity which helped get us here.

⚫🟡David Atherton⚫🟡

The skipper has been Mr reliable across our 2 T20 campaigns and has controlled middle overs and taken wickets at key times. Dave has also had a couple of contributions with the bat when opportunity has allowed. Dave bowled a crucial 4 overs in the semi final when the game was in the balance and wrestled the momentum in our favour. A strike rate of 9.6 with the ball speaks for itself and there is a strong chance Dave will have a big say in the middle overs on Monday afternoon too!

⚫🟡Jacob Dever⚫🟡

Jacob is a keeper batsman who is another that hasn’t had loads of time out in the middle within the t20 campaign. Jacob has shown in the league format that he is capable of clearing the ropes and we are sure he will be ready to show that if given the opportunity on Monday. Jacob has contributed with the gloves taking 2 stumpings and 2 caught behinds showing his capability to get up to the stumps in the middle overs which has been a key feature of our bowling innings throughout the competition.

⚫🟡Tom Barker ⚫🟡

Tom is a technical batsman who finds himself further down the order than he would in the longer format of the game, however, he is yet to be dismissed and has contributed on a couple of occasions at the back end of innings and has scored at 100 strike rate. He has also contributed with ball in hand having taken a couple of wickets with an economy of 6.1 showing he can do a job with his medium pace bringing the keeper up to the stumps and into play when it is required. Tom is a back bone to the batting line up and can be used to sure things up if early wickets are lost whilst also being readily available with the ball if called upon!

⚫🟡Craig Mcananey⚫🟡

Craig is an all round option able to contribute with bat and ball. Again due to a thriving top order Craig has found limited opportunity with the bat but has proven his worth with the ball alone across the 2 campaigns. He has an average of 24 with an economy of 7.2 making himself a worthy spin option for the team. Craig is the type of player who can adapt to almost any role and can be introduced into a lot of scenarios and make an impact and on Monday he may well do exactly that!

⚫🟡Alex Gaughan⚫🟡

Alex is playing in his first T20 campaign this season and is an addition to the side as an aggressive middle order batsman. Due to a firing top order Alex has had limited opportunity to demonstrate the power he possesses within matches but those within the club know he is capable of hitting the ball very cleanly! He is also a big asset in the field with a very good pair of hands and good athleticism! Opportunity permitting Alex can score runs quickly which no opposition would want to be on the receiving end of.

⚫🟡Jay Davies⚫🟡

Jay has been a key part of our bowling innings,Jay is the joint leading wicket within the 2 T20 seasons and has a very tidy economy of a shade under 6. He has a bowling strike rate of 10.8 showing how threatening he has been always creating chances. Jay played a key part in our semi final victory bowling 4 very tidy overs in the middle shifting the momentum in our favour and it is very possible he can put a similar performance in for the final!

⚫🟡Lee Jackson⚫🟡

The clubs joint top wicket taker across our 2 T20 campaigns. Lee has a knack for taking wickets and operates with a healthy economy of 6.87. Lee is a versatile bowler who has bowled all throughout the innings but specializes with the new ball and has bowled a lot of power play making his economy even more impressive. Could Monday be another occasion for Lee to assert himself with new ball in hand?

⚫🟡Thank you to all the lads sponsors for their continued support this season ⚫🟡
