Beckwithshaw 2nd XI recover from 24-5 to defeat Bardsey

August 13, 2024 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

It’s come to that time of the season where the number of games scheduled in a week is dropping considerably. Leagues and cups are reaching their climax and others have finished, making the fixture list something of a tricky thing to navigate. Combine that with who is playing at home, who is away, which teams […]

West Yorkshire Women and Girls’ League: Menston spring a surprise at Skipton

August 8, 2024 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

I’ve been rather unlucky over the past two weeks. Sundays have been put aside to cover women’s cricket – but frustratingly, there have been relatively few games scheduled, and the last one that I had planned to go to was postponed…which I only found out about when I turned up at the ground. This week, […]

Upper Wharfedale claim the points at scenic Bolton Abbey

August 8, 2024 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

I had two potential destinations to choose from on Saturday, one being an Airedale & Wharfedale Senior Cricket League game, and the other in the Theakston Nidderdale League. As I passed Blubberhouses’ ground on the A59, heading up to the recently re-opened Kex Gill pass, the discussion between Connor [my son] and myself was still […]

Abeysekara dazzles Stamford Bridge as Harrogate win

July 25, 2024 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

Not so much a battle but a skirmish. I can hear the collective groan, “Not Harrogate again! You only visited there last week!”. I know…I know. Apologies, but hear me out. I headed to St. George’s Road last week when the weather was poor, knowing I had two potential games to cover, in two different […]

Chappell Cup: Starfish among the shadows as Ilkley make semi-finals

July 24, 2024 by Mark Doherty 5 Comments

Unfortunately, on Sunday, I wasn’t able to schedule in a women’s game due to having to head towards Burley in Wharfedale to pick my daughter up from a weekend’s Guide camp. To be honest, I had pretty much resigned myself to not being able to get to any sort of game as the location and […]

Nidderdale League: Rainton dodge showers to top the table at Harrogate

July 17, 2024 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

I’m not obsessed by the weather, but by the very nature of my job, I have to keep an eye on the forecast to ensure that I have the correct coats, boots and hats to hand…as well as ensuring I pick up the correct camera equipment and rain covers. These past two years have seemingly […]

Metcalfe and Garton centuries win it for Harrogate Women

July 11, 2024 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

Looking around the fixture list for Sunday’s venue, there were a number of potential destinations for me to travel to…with the Hambleton Women’s Outdoor Soft Ball League (West) game between Ouseburn and Ripon being the first choice. However, as I prepared to set off, I was disappointed to find that their game had been conceded […]

Theakston Nidderdale League: Starbeck dazzle at Spofforth

July 11, 2024 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

‘Spofforth is the centre of the universe’ – a schoolfriend once said in all seriousness to answer a question posed by the young unsuspecting geography teacher during a lesson one Thursday afternoon at Harrogate Grammar School. Now, being totally honest, he probably knew that wasn’t the case, but watching the reactions of the only adult […]

Women’s softball: Richmondshire win at Knaresborough Forest

July 9, 2024 by Mark Doherty Leave a Comment

Sunday arrived and I was certainly worried about the weather. The forecast over the weekend was very unsettled, with threats of drizzle and longer showers, potentially disrupting games scheduled on both days. I’d looked at the fixture lists for the next few weeks on Monday, pencilling in various destinations, trying to ensure that I continued […]

Licking cows, special teas and new nets as Pickering visit Pannal

July 3, 2024 by Mark Doherty 1 Comment

I love grounds like Pannal; secluded from the main road, transporting you away from everyday life, almost suspending normality. There are still the distant sounds of cars travelling on the main road that runs between Harrogate and Leeds, and the occasional blast of the train’s horn to signal its final approach to Pannal Station – […]
