First XI confirmed as Division 1
Champions |
September 2005 |
|
|
Winslow completed their most successful season for many years after the First XI were crowned champions of Division 2 of the Four Counties Cricket League, with the Second XI also gaining promotion by finishing in second place in Division 5.
The First XI, led by skipper Pete Gibbard secured first place by completing a comfortable victory at home to
Edlesborough, winning by 180 runs. Centuries from Jamie Litherland (120 not out) and Glyn Davies (105) took the Winslow total to 272 for 4 (and in doing so, the pair created a new third wicket partnership of 228, breaking the previous record of 175 that has stood since
1989).
In reply, Edlesborough were bowled out for just 92 with Johno Waugh taking another 4 wickets to confirm him as the Division's leading wicket taker, ending up with 33 wickets - a fantastic achievement.
Glyn Davies finished third in the list of Division 2's run scorers, finishing with a total of 547 runs at an average of 45.58, and Iain Herbertson finished in the top 5 list of
all-rounders.
With Markyate being expelled from Division 5 in the week leading up to the last day of league fixtures, the Second XI had no game and their destiny was in other teams hands. Unfortunately for Winslow, Milton Bryan beat Wing to take top spot, but led by skipper Dave Marshall, the Second XI had an excellent season to gain promotion into Division 4.
Paul Stolworthy completed a hat-trick of statistics by finishing second, third and first in the Divisions list of Batsmen, Bowlers and
All-rounders respectively.
This has been a fantastic season for the Club that has seen both League sides fully deserve to gain
promotion, in addition to the Midweek side's Cup
win in July.
|
|
Promotion Double ! |
August 2005 |
|
|
|
With one week of the League schedule to
go, both the First and Second Saturday sides have secured promotion, to
divisions one and four respectively.
The First team won by 5 wickets away to
Olney, whilst the Second team won at home to Eaton Bray by 51 runs, in
what were both 2nd vs 3rd place matches that both went Winslow's way.
Next week, the first team are at home to
Edlesborough, whilst the Second team are away to Markyate, with the
possibility still remaining of both Winslow sides being winners of their
respective divisions.

Midweek Side win George Blow Cup Final |
July 2005 |
|
|
|
Winslow Town Cricket Club have won the George Blow Cup by beating Maids Moreton in a closely
contested Final on Friday 8th July, at Marsh Gibbon.
Set a total of 112 by Maids Moreton, Winslow reached their target on the first ball of the final over, with James Gaskins top scoring with an excellent 45.
A full match report can be found here.
A fine achievement by a youthful Winslow midweek side.

Winslow Under 11's Win Brill 6-a-side
Tournament |
June 2005 |
|
|
|
Winslow under 11’s entered two teams this year in the Brill tournament on 12th June 2005.
The "A" team did very well and only lost two games, one of which was against Winslow
"B", and the other being the first game of the day against Bledlow.
The "B" team went one better and one all five of their league games and had already qualified for the final when they had to play Winslow
"A" in the final pool game. Much then depended on the result between Westbury and Whitchurch as to whether Winslow
"A" would qualify for the final. Winslow "A" had a run rate of 87 after their pool games and Westbury were on 54 before their game against Whitchurch, which meant Westbury needed in excess of 250 runs to qualify - a tall order! Westbury managed to push their run rate up to
70, but this was not enough and for the first time in the clubs junior section history, Winslow had two teams in the final.
The final was played in quite a relaxed manner and the players were able to express themselves with some excellent all-round performances, being that
"Winslow" was going to win.
In the end Winslow "B" came out winners by some 30 runs. Both teams and supporting parents (of which yet again we had the greatest support) were a credit to themselves and Winslow Town Cricket Club. This can only bode well for the future - well done to all.

Dinner & Dance: Trophy
Presentations |
October 2004 |
|
|
|
Another enjoyable evening was had at the
Annual Dinner and Dance, held once again at Beales Hotel in Buckingham.
After a splendid meal, Chairman Dave Dale
and President Dave Rowlands conducted the trophy presentations. In
the order of how they were presented...
Paul Stolworthy collected the 2nd XI
Batting Cup (249 runs at an average of 35.57). Marcus Sales was a
close runner up with 301 runs at an average of 33.44. Kevin Saving
was the winner of the 2nd XI Bowling Cup (15 wickets at an average of
13.80), with Jamie Litherland (in his first season for the club) finishing
runner up with 14 wickets at an average of 16.71. The 2nd XI
Fielding Cup was collected by Dave Marshall.
In a fairly unique double, Paul
Stolworthy also collected the 1st XI Batting Cup (512 runs at an average
of 39.38). In close contention was Glyn Davies (556 runs at an
average of 34.75, and finished 7th in the League Batting averages).
Kieran Price amassed a very grand total of 824 runs in Sunday games, but
didn't quite have a sufficient number of innings to qualify.
Fenton Price was the winner of the 1st XI
Bowling Cup, taking 36 wickets at an average of 15.53. Pete Gibbard
was runner up, taking 25 wickets at an average of 19.04. Kevin
McAndrew retained the 1st XI Fielding Cup.
The Trophy for the Performance of the
Season went to Pete Gibbard who returned bowling figures of 10-5-10-6
against North Crawley on 15th May. Marcus Sales collected the Colts
Trophy, whilst the Presidents Trophy was once again presented to Dave
Dale.
The 2nd XI Player of the Season Cup was
awarded jointly to Marcus Sales and Dave Marshall, whilst Fenton Price
completed his hat-trick by being awarded the 1st XI Player of the Season
Trophy and the Players Player of the Year Trophy, an award voted for on
the night by all players in attendance.
In addition, Graham Eccles made a special
presentation to Dave Dale to thank him for his outstanding efforts on the
ground this year, and a collection from all the players bought a selection
of bottles of red wine for Dave.
Many thanks once again go to Pete Taylor
and all for organising the event.

Winslow Town Under 14s have reached the final of the Marlow Park Trophy which is the Bucks County Board Under 14 competition.
En-route the U14s notched up fine victories against Chenies & Latimer, Penn & Tylers Green, Great Kingshill and Ley Hill. Some fine individual efforts with bat and ball were seen in all matches but a combined team effort contributed to the eventual success.
In the final Winslow play against a strong Amersham side. The game is scheduled for Tuesday 20th July at Marlow Park with a 6.15pm start.
Unfortunately Amersham proved too good
on the day, beating Winslow by 7 wickets [match
report], but nevertheless this was an excellent achievement to reach a
County Final.
