We all enjoyed a superb meal and an excellent social evening, the chairman reported that the club had a successful season with the first XI pushing for promotion to the Premier Division and winning the WSM Stephenson T20 Cup.

The second XI introduced a lot of younger players to the game which bodes well for future seasons.
