The congratulations to you both (on both counts). winners were Tim Wootton-Beard and his partner Andrew Morffew (who likes Alresford so much that Alresford was represented in the Hampshire Under he is about to become a member).

This county run event was won by Zac Bowen from We have played several Men’s and Mixed matches Dibden Golf Club. It was a pleasure to be the starter with predictably mixed results. We continue to for this event and hair-raising to see how well and suffer from lack of support for these matches, how far these lads can hit the ball. which makes it very difficult to maintain the level of success that we would like. Sign-up sheets are We were also represented at several invitational available on all the notice boards and I should events since the last bulletin, including the not exclude the Vets from this – they have similar Shanklin and Sandown Vase, the Army Centenary problems, particularly for home matches.

Invitation scheduled for 10th September is looking Competition is strong in all these events, but it is as though it will be a casualty of this lack of support important to support them to ensure continuation. - the email sent out recently from the office has already set out the concerns. The 100 Club Salver golf and dinner was held on 4th July, the winner being the same as the organiser, George Clelland himself. Congratulations George.

Invitation which was well supported with a lot of familiar faces coming back to Alresford to enjoy the Andrew Frearson golf and, of course, our hospitality. The Flag Day attracted over 30 players and it was described to me by one member as being a ploy to get Vets to play a medal round! Whatever, it was a good day. Ladie’s Section 3 Jean Coveyduck Ladies’ Captain August has been a much quieter month. The only major event has been the Senior Ladies’ Championship with an excellent sign-up of 30 ladies.

Match Committee Report 4 Slow play My thanks to those who helped on the day and with the organisation and planning, especially Chris Once again there have been comments about slow Chant, David Robertson and Malcolm Scott, not play, particularly on Saturday mornings, though forgetting the Greenstaff who had the course in I suspect it is more general than that. The Club excellent condition and the bar staff and caterers Championships demonstrated that it is perfectly who looked after members and guests extremely possible for a 3-ball to complete a round in 3½-4 well. I’d also like to give a special mention to Ian hours, so a 4 ball should be able to finish within Cantrill who stood in at the last minute to act as 4–4½ hours, and that is being generous. All the marker for one of the pairs. things which cause slow play are well known and it is the responsibility of everyone to play at a good pace and not waste time. A group does not have to Mixed Invitation walk up the fairway together; you should be ready The Mixed Invitation is scheduled for Sunday 10th to play and make your shot when it is your turn to September. However at time of writing, the entry play! There are no excuses. is only 9 pairs which is insufficient to run a viable event. The Mixed Invitation is an enjoyable and Men’s Invitation social occasion which has been in the calendar for many years so it will be very disappointing if we The Men’s Invitation was held on Sunday 20th have to cancel it.

  • 2018 Fixtures
    TICHBORNE PARK CRICKET CLUB 2018 FIXTURES Hampshire Cricket League Southern Premier League Winchester & District CCA TICHBORNE PARK CRICKET CLUB 2018 FIXTURES CHAIRMAN’S ADDRESS Well here we are again, the start of another cricket season! While the 2017 senior playing side of things didn’t go too well, with both the 1sts and 2nds losing their place in their respective leagues and the ladies team withdrawing from their league, as always there was still many positives for the club. Not least the successful integration of several colts into the 3rd XI Saturday senior side, winning the Tichborne Trophy, the inaugural Vic Primmer sixes tournament, our new website and the launch of ECB All Stars initiative, which saw an influx of young people giving cricket a try for the first time. I say it all the time but not bad for a small village club, competing with towns the size of Portsmouth, Bournemouth and Basingstoke. The 2017 season ended with sadness when we learned of the sudden death of our President Anthony Loudon. A big challenge facing us this year is finding a new President to fill Anthony’s shoes. We look forward to remembering Anthony with his friends and family when we host the Presidents XI fixture in July. There is a lot of hard work ahead for the committee with Club Mark reaccreditation; an updated Club Development Plan; implementation of our media strategy to promote the club and attract new members and of course to push forward with fundraising and grant applications for the pavilion project. Continued on page 2 TICHBORNE PARK CRICKET CLUB 1 We were successful in receiving grant funding towards a new mower from Winchester City Council recently which is so desperately needed.

  • ALRESFORD SHOW by Robert Hedges "A Delightful Little Country Show," Remarked a Cattle Judge on One Occasion, "And
    ALRESFORD SHOW By Robert Hedges "A delightful little country show," remarked a cattle judge on one occasion, "and run by such pleasant people!" The sense of enjoyment and success implicit in this spontaneous reaction was engendered in 1908 and has been fostered by several generations of presidents, officers and committee members ever since. As the farming year moves almost imperceptibly through changing scenes of work and weather to its culmination in the rewards of maturity and harvest, so the Alresford Shaw has developed through periods of fluctuating fortunes to its high level of excellence under enlightened management - at the same time cautious and imaginative, conservative and progressive - that has nursed it gently along from year to year, absorbing the pressures of scientific advancement, government policy and popular demand and somehow contriving to present annually a charming, traditional picture of Hampshire country life at its civilised best. Shows can vary in size from the man who humiliates his fellow gardeners by displaying an enormous potato in the local bar to the bewildering magnitude of a great national event. The Alresford Show has grown over the years and has now probably reached its optimum. But how did it start? Well, it was during the week when the suffragette Mrs. Parkhurst appeared at Bow Street on a charge of incitement to "rush" the Commons; when John Lee was brought before the Alresford Bench, charged with begging on Pound Hill; and when the Labour-Liberal candidate for the East Hants Division faced a hostile audience at Old Alresford School. Mr. T. C. Hankin, the landlord of the Swan Hotel (but soon to start the family motorcar business), was serving whisky at 2d a tot and beer at 2d a pint to a special group of gentlemen seated before a log fire.
