SIDCUP WANDERERS TAKE THE BERESFORD-WEBB TROPHY

Sidcup Rugby Wanderers (Cricket Team) added another trophy to the season's collection by winning the Hugh Beresford-Webb trophy in the Twenty20 cricket match against Sidcup Cricket Club, last night (Mon 23 Jul 07).

The reduced 12 over match started but was abandoned after 4 overs when Tom Beament, the Cricket Club No. 3 batsman, tried his best to knock out our Club Captain Iain Wilson by letting go of his bat not once but twice. On the second occassion, whilst retrieving his bat Mark 'Groudo' Sawyer ran him out. What a good sport! This was too much for the umbrellared umpires who abandoned the match (spoil sports !!!).

So a bowling shoot out took place between the 11 players from both sides, each player trying to hit the unptotected stumps. After 11 attempts the score was 1-1 with second team skipper, Paul Edwards, doing the honours for The Wanderers. With sudden death now in force, club skipper Iain Wilson took the responsibilty of the first attempt and knocked the middle stump out of the ground. The cricket club were now panicking and their attemt by the hawaian shirted Jenkins failed, to the delight of The Wanderers.

The underdogs had won. Maybe not through a proper game of cricket but a trophy is a trophy. Mr Hugh B-W gave Man Of The Match to Iain Wilson for his very accurate bowling. I hope he enjoyed the champagne!

FARNINGHAM CC v SIDCUP WANDERERS

Sidcup Wanderers lost by 69 runs to very proficient outfit from Farningham CC.

Batting was our strong point against a steady bowling attack. Our top five did well with some good batting. Mark (Groundo) Sawyer and Mini West were the stars with the big hitting West nearly exhausting the Farningham cricket ball supply.

Many thanks to Farningham Cricket Club for their hospitality, which included a great tea and a barbeque after the game. Thanks for Jim Wilson for scoring and Allison for manning the barbeque. Thanks for the supporters that made the trip. A great day was had by all the team with some very funny moments,especially the umpiring of Mr. Farlam-Jones. He did such a biased job he will certainly be demoted to this role for the next match.

PJW - 17 Jun 07

On behalf of and with my other hat on as chairman of Farningham Cricket Club, I would to thank the players and supporters for turning up and playing yesterday. Although the result was not in favour of the rugby club, I think the game was played in a good spirit and as far as I can tell everyone enjoyed themselves. Congratulations to Mini West for a splendid knock.

Also I would like to thank Phil for organising his team and hope that Farningham can give you a chance of revenge next season.

From the chairman of Farningham Cricket Club, celebrating their 150th birthday to the President and all the players and supporters have a great 125th birthday.
