Going for the title: State of play in Yorkshire’s leagues

September 3, 2024 by John Fuller Leave a Comment

My interview with Richmondshire Cricket Club who wrapped up the NYSD with plenty of time to spare got me thinking. What’s the situation in the top divisions elsewhere? I keep an eye out across Yorkshire’s cricket leagues but now we’re getting to the last few weeks, there are trophies there for the taking. So here […]

No small beer: Lights, CAMRA, action at Barkisland

July 22, 2024 by John Fuller Leave a Comment

I don’t drink beer so an email dropping in about award-winning real ales initially didn’t set the pulse racing.   Sorry, Dave at Barkisland Cricket Club, you’d have reeled me in with a press release about Irn-Bru.   And yet…   I got to thinking about how cricket clubs become a point of difference, particularly in the many […]

Hutchinson fireworks light up Thornton’s title defence

June 7, 2024 by John Fuller 2 Comments

When it came to choosing Saturday’s fixture, several components slotted into place like Tetris. I figured my first ENCO Halifax Cricket League game this season was overdue. (Subsequent apologies to Stainland, I have a memory like a sieve). The prospect of Thornton 1st XI, last year’s treble-winning Premier Division champions and currently in second, up […]

From pitch to pinnacle: Upper Hopton progress in Parish Cup

June 4, 2024 by Andrew Gallon Leave a Comment

“It’s a long walk for a duck!” The words of Luddendenfoot opener Harry Denham after his first over dismissal at Upper Hopton Cricket Club’s Sutcliffe Memorial Ground. Playing in a Halifax League Parish Cup second-round tie, Denham had almost scaled the summit of a taxing, 45-step climb from pitch to clubhouse at what must be […]

Trophies and transformation at Stainland

May 9, 2024 by John Fuller Leave a Comment

The revival of Stainland Cricket Club was on my mind as we headed into Halifax en route to the Calderdale village. The trip was partly to drop off a brand-new trophy as the club had won the world-famous Cricket Yorkshire Tea of the Year. Competition sponsor Yorkshire Tea had designed a new trophy and I […]

Early birds: Pre-season friendlies and when leagues begin

April 3, 2024 by John Fuller 1 Comment

I get a bit twitchy at this time of year. Conflicted even. On the one hand, it’s definitely a time to celebrate more light and longer days with Spring here and the prospect of club cricket around the corner. Yet, there’s no disguising the fact that perhaps now I don’t play anymore, enthusiasm for watching […]
