Chipping Norton – Home – Steve Dixon Cup

Feeling guiltily lazy after Steve managed to get 2 match reports written in the time it has taken me to write this one. In my defence, I’m umm lazy! Saturday’s game at home vs Chipping Norton was the first round of the Steve Dixon Cup, those who followed the Saturday side last year will remember them beating us with ease twice before going on to win the league. Starting with 10, who would have thought fielding first was a good idea, well me! I won the toss and put them into bat. A…continue reading →

Steventon Home – Saturday

Wantage won the toss and decided to put Steventon in to bat. Opening the bowling were Duncan “Long Dog” Wooloff and Ryan “Pippin” Martin, some early wickets for Pippin dismissed the top order, including a cracking gully catch by the older, gingerer, Zimbo Barry. Catches not quite sticking cost Long Dog a couple of wickets but still finished up with decent figures, one over letting them down, some interesting shots lets say. Replacing the openers were Oliver Taylor and Chaz Boshell, 5 quick wickets between them took the innings away from Steventon. Stewart…continue reading →

Outdoor Nets

Out of almost no where the season is upon us, therefore after the success of the indoor nets last month it is time to get outside, in the sunshine (yeah right) and start some outdoor nets. First session will be on Tuesday 28th, from 6:30, depending on numbers who make it along activities will be decided at the time. This session is for everyone, Saturday/Sunday/Wednesday players! Of course this is dependant on the weather, so keep an eye on the website / email Tuesday afternoon for any updates.continue reading →

Quick Update

With the new season just around the corner I thought a quick update on what is going on with the club was in order. Early pre-season indoor nets went down well, a couple of well attended sessions at John Masons in Abingdon. Next it will be time to move outside and play some proper cricket. Before that can happen, we need to get the new carpet in the net laid (volunteers welcomed to help out). New side screen is on its way, yes that’s one less that will need repainting. Away dressing room…continue reading →

Pre Season Nets

...Start tomorrow. Super Nordic has booked the entire sports hall at John Masons School in Abingdon so there will be plenty of room for everyone. Maybe even some space to do more than just nets... Be there are 1045 so we make the most of the time, any questions on getting there give one of us a shout (me, Nordic, Duncs), same drill if you need a lift etc, I'm sure we can point you in the direction of someone who will be driving from somewhere near you. We are going to base…continue reading →
