ADL titles for U9's and U11's
|
Posted by Steve George on 13/07/2010 at 17:56 |
| Not content with winning their respective divisions of the ADL, both the U9 and U11 teams won the play-off finals on successive nights this week (12 & 13 July). Both matches had exciting finishes, but our lads held their nerve and some crucial catches to bring home the first 2 pieces of silverware this season - Well played to all members of the squad and their coaches and managers |

U10's reach County Finals
|
Posted by Steve George on 09/07/2010 at 17:15 |
Many congratulations to the U10 squad and manager Andrew Carter as they triumphed against a strong Gerrards Cross side on the evening of 9 July. This means that they are the first Cublington side to reach the Bucks County Finals day at Stowe School (18 July) where they will take on Chesham.
The U13's did not fare so well against Gerrards Cross U13's, losing by 9 wickets. However the side have had a fantastic season and can still win the Aylesbury & District play-off final next week.
The U17's narrowly lost their semi final to Thame Town on Thursday 8 July.
Cublington U9's, u11's and U13's play in the ADL finals on the 12th, 13th and 14th July respectively - all support welcome!! |

Cublington Crown Campaign with County Cup win!
|
Posted by Steve George on 13/09/2009 at 18:40 |
| Cublington claimed the Bucks County Challenge Cup trophy with a fine team performance at High Wycombe CC against old rivals Winchmore Hill. Batting first, Cublington started well, faltered, came back strongly and then finished their innings with a flourish setting a competitive total of 204-6. Bill Burton (75) Pip Webb (51) and Steve George (28*) making the main contributions. After a nervous start, Howard Sayers, Adam Goldberg, Greg Jenkins and the indominatable Steve Godfrey, then put the brakes on and took wickets steadily. With 4 overs to go Winchmore Hill needed 32 with 3 wickets remaining, but were skittled by an inspired (and 2 stone lighter) Godfrey, eventually falling 27 runs short. The acting skipper Adam Goldberg accepted the trophy from BCB Secretary Martin Watts, together with a cheque to the club for £500 as winners. A fitting end to a great season! |

'Most successful season ever' draws to a close
|
Posted by Steve George on 10/09/2009 at 16:59 |
It started with the Junior teams, who by the end of July had brought home ADL trophies at U8, U9, U15 and U17 age groups. Our U10's reached the County semi final and the U11 and U13's performed well. Then our senior midweek side finished runners up in both the ADL midweek league and cup. Our second team won Div 4 of the FCCL with a game to spare and the 1st X1 finished higher than ever before (4th) in Div 1 of the FCCL. The Sunday side have won 11 out of 14 matches so far and our Sunday Cup side play against Winchmore Hill in the Final of the Bucks Challenge cup on 13 September at High Wycombe CC.
Its been a memorable season for the club and we hope to finish on a high in the final. It's a 12.30 start and all support would be most welcome.
Some great individual and team performances will be celebrated at our annual dinner on Saturday November 28th at The Unicorn |

CUBLINGTON DO IT AGAIN!
|
Posted by Nick Talbot on 04/08/2009 at 16:17 |
Cublington juniors continued their winning season with the Under 8's winning the Junior Kwik crickest festival at Buckingham Town on Sunday. In the first of four summer tournaments organised by the Bucks Cricket Board, Cublington were victorious in all their group matches against Buckingham, Stony Stratford & Tring and then went onto victory in the final against Buckingham, with Cublington scoring 247 and Buckingham making 208 in reply. The squad of 10 players performed brilliantly in all the matches with the newcomers Adam Bromiley, Ryan Bullock and Dominic Boyd all playing well in thier first matches. All the team performed really well, but Tom Carter with the bat and Marcus Critchley with the ball were the outstanding performers of the day as they propelled the team to win the trophy.
It has been a great season for the Cublington U9's and U8's and the team is already looking forward to summer 2010! |

CUBLINGTON UNDER 9'S CHAMPIONS
|
Posted by Nick Talbot on 15/07/2009 at 07:34 |
| Cublington Under 9's successful season culminated in victory over Dinton in the Play off final of the Aylesbury District League U9's final. Cublington reached the final having been unbeaten in the North District league and came up against a very strong Dinton team. Dinton batted first and made a good net score of 272, restricted by some good Cublington bowling, the Cublington wicket takers were Marcus Critchley, Jack Rodnight, Harry Sellers, Hugo Meynell and Adam Sellers. In response Cublington were struggling inspite of an excellent innings from Thomas Faulkner, however thanks to excellent middle knocks from Tom Sykes, Milan Laljani and Marcus Critchley suddenly Cublington were in with a chance. It was down to the cool young heads of Jack Rodnight and Tom Carter to guide the team to victory and a total score of 282, thanks to some beautiful strokes and good running. The culmination of a great season for the all conquering Under 9's. |

Mentmore players join forces with Cublington
|
Posted by Steve George on 19/03/2009 at 19:44 |
| For those not yet aware, we welcome former Mentmore Saturday League players to the Cublington ranks as we join forces for the 2009 season. Having struggled to raise a full team for the last season or two, Mentmore pulled out of the leagueover the winter. We have already got to know the guys at the first few net sessions (and at The Unicorn afterwards) and what a great bunch they are!! We are confident that all 3 of our league sides will be strengthened by their presence and know that they will soon feel an integral part of the club. |

Posted by Steve George on 29/11/2008 at 19:52 |
On Friday 28 November 50 members gathered at The Unicorn for a very enjoyable evening arranged by Clare Barker and the Social Action Group. Tables games, an auction and music by Rondeau provided the entertainment, with New second team skipper Tom Gadsby and president John Gregory doing their best to clear out the stock of 'house red' in the Unicorn cellar!
A profit of £2400 was raised for club funds - a magnificent achievement given the number of people attending and the financial pressures. Thanks to all who attended and made the occasion memorable! |

League sides do a 'Hatrick'
|
Posted by Steve George on 25/05/2008 at 10:44 |
| Ten years ago, I was asked what my cricketing ambition was. At the time we had a Sunday friendly side only and my response was 'To open the batting for our 3rd X1 league side' This weekend (24 May 2008) we went one better. All three League sides won (convincingly) and whilst I was still playing for the ones, I did not bat, bowl or take a catch. What a tremendous achievement for the club to put out 3 league sides with a host of talented young players performing excellently (we could have probably fielded a 4th X1) and win all the matches with a zero contribution from the Chairman! - retirement beckons!! |
