Softball Cricket Festival at Bilton: Joyous and competitive

June 11, 2025 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

The end of the week hadn’t promised too much – as the weather looked decidedly dodgy. Those wonderful people at the Met Office had predicted thunder and lightning, hail and storms, and in our small part of the world…enough rain to shake more than a few sticks at! I’d somehow managed to dodge most of […]

A King’s first: Super Kings debut at Collingham & Linton

May 14, 2025 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

Wilson double act leads Studley Royal to victory over Bolton Percy

May 8, 2025 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

My first game of the 2024 season was supposed to be at Goldsborough. I remember the day was pretty warm, the sky filled with fluffy white clouds dotted around the blue backdrop, and there was a light wind blowing from the farmer’s fields across the ground.
