🌟 Century for Harvey Sidwell! 💯🏏

Fantastic news from Church Eaton Cricket Club as 15-year-old Harvey Sidwell has scored his first senior century for the club!

Harvey's outstanding innings of 120 not out, is a testament to the hard work, dedication and talent he has shown over many years, and it's brilliant to see one of our own young players reach this fantastic milestone.

A first century is something every batsman remembers, and to achieve it at just 15 years old is a remarkable accomplishment. Harvey is a shining example of the strength and depth of our junior section and the pathway into senior cricket at Church Eaton CC.

Congratulations, Harvey – here's to many more runs, many more centuries, and a bright future in the game! 👏💙💛
