Throughout the games and various formats the teams showed amazing depth, from the School boys, university boys to older boys. As with previous seasons we gave some of the larger league clubs a demonstration in the art of village cricket. There were some stand out performances with the bat from Morris and Sloan at the top of the order, and great middle order hitting and game management from the likes of Jasper Piper, Will Simpson and new boy Ben Browning. Notable mention must also go to Jonesy Jnr who notched up his maiden half century for the club, and outscored his old man for what will be the first of many seasons to come. The Bowling attack was once again driven by the ever dependable Smith and Bradney, taking close to fifty wickets between them and more often than not laying the foundation for victory. Jasper Piper took an impressive 20 wickets to add to his 400+ runs, and academy starlet Alex Barleet is certainly one to watch in 2018. Off the pitch Phil & Nicola pulled off another successful and thoroughly enjoyable fun day, raising much needed funds for the club and demonstrating the energy and dedication of the members. We move into the 2018 season stronger than ever, and with the establishment of the new Wealden Wallop 20/20 tournament and our inaugural entry into the National Village Cup, watch this space for continued success and the abundance of silverware. We welcome one and all to come to the ground on match day to enjoy the cricket and observe some of the finest sandwich making of an era. Jonesy 1 D.W. KIBBLEWHITE N.C.H., S.C.C.

The weather was uniformly glorious, and we did not lose a single scheduled practice or match to rain. We were lucky enough to play most of our games at home on Monday night bathed in glorious sun. The setting was magnificent and huge thanks as ever needs to go to groundsman Peter Bourne. The U12s won the East Sussex league at first attempt as the unbeaten side in the competition guided by the accomplished captaincy of Gutteridge H. On the batting front, Durtnell W was ever reliable batting at number 4, topping the run scoring retiring 30 not out a number of times with his signature deft late cut to the fore. Taggart N continued to punch way above his weight as but a ten-year-old in the middle order. Special mention should go to Hall T whose batting was ‘most improved’ this year making some very handy runs further down the order. The rest of the boys all chipped in. Gutteridge H produced the innings of the season against Hailsham, smashing a Chris Gayle-esque 33 not out off about 10 balls opening up the innings. Vice-captain Bottle K was the all-rounder engine room of the team accumulating the 2nd highest number of runs batting in his methodical fashion at number 3 and taking 2nd highest number of wickets with some very accurate seam spells. Bowling was a real team effort with everyone making a contribution. Anthony G, Braxton H and Gutteridge H bowled aggressively and to good effect. Braxton A found a consistently nagging line and length and took the breath-taking catch of the season off his own bowling. Bond T is also one to watch for the future as he bowled some excellent spells.
