NYSD Kerridge Cup: Saltburn triumph at Fountains Garth

June 5, 2023 by Andrew Gallon Leave a Comment

In my world, Bank Holidays are synonymous with sporting derby matches. Surely, it’s what the damn things were invented for! From a decent selection of fixtures (and after a careful assessment of the weather forecast for each quarter of the Broad Acres), I opted for a first visit to Fountains Garth, where Guisborough Cricket Club […]

Foss Evening Cricket League action at Dunnington

May 31, 2023 by Andrew Gallon Leave a Comment

In the ‘groundhopping’ game, there’s always one that gets away. Somehow, despite living in York for longer than I’ve lived anywhere else (which, having terribly itchy feet, isn’t saying a great deal), I managed to miss visiting Dunnington Cricket Club when they were playing ECB Premier Division cricket. At the end of the 2021 season, […]

Sykes Cup: Birkby Rose Hill vs Mirfield Parish Cavaliers

May 24, 2023 by Andrew Gallon Leave a Comment

Watching a cup tie between buoyant teams with 2022 championship trophies on their CVs seemed like an excellent way to spend a sunny Sunday afternoon. An opportunity to reacquaint myself with the Huddersfield Cricket League was a bonus. So, off I went to north Huddersfield and Birkby Rose Hill Cricket Club, whose First XI were […]

Malton & Old Malton cut down by Stamford Bridge’s Faber

May 15, 2023 by Andrew Gallon Leave a Comment

Stuffed olives, smoked cheese, pork and apple pie, samosas, Cornish-style pasties, raspberry cheesecake, fruit scones and chocolate brownies. Eight reasons why we chose Old Malton for our most recent Saturday cricket fix. I say ‘we’. Once my wife realised Malton & Old Malton Cricket Club’s home game with Yorkshire Premier League North, Premier Division rivals […]

Pool Cricket Club: Rain delays, beetles and time travel

May 12, 2023 by Andrew Gallon 8 Comments

I’m having almost as much success getting my 2023 cricket-watching season off the ground as rocket man Elon Musk attempting to jettison himself into space. Nobody needs reminding what a wet, windy, cold spring it’s been.  Away in Kent for Easter, I caught the final, decisive day of a County Championship match between Division One […]

Huddersfield Cricket League: Umpires Warning

May 11, 2023 by Andrew Gallon Leave a Comment

Deteriorating player behaviour towards umpires this season has prompted Huddersfield Cricket League (HCL) chairman Trevor Atkinson to issue a stern warning to club captains. The warning is in the unusual form of an open letter, the contents of which are likely to raise eyebrows across recreational cricket, in Yorkshire and beyond. Trevor’s statement follows a […]

March 2, 2023 by Andrew Gallon 6 Comments

Settle Cricket Club enter their first season in the new North West Cricket League with what chairman Andrew Davidson describes as an “open mind”. Last autumn, the 16-club Ribblesdale Cricket League – of which, in 1892, Settle were founder members – agreed to merge with the Bolton Cricket League, established in 1930. This year, 24 […]

Filey aim high for Yorkshire Premier League North debut

February 1, 2023 by Andrew Gallon 1 Comment

Captain David Brannan Jnr believes Filey Cricket Club’s first team can make an immediate impact in the Yorkshire Premier League North, their new home.
