V Leicestershire CCC (Academy) – T20 Double-Header 5 June 2018 Huntingdon C.C.C (Snrs) v Leicestershire CCC (Academy) – T20 Double-header. Played at Ramsey C.C. Cricketfield Lane, – Sunday 27 May 2018. By John N Wells - Deputy Chairman Hunts C.C.C. Picture the scene; Wed 23 May, I’m miles out on the Ouse washes with poor mobile signal when the phone rings: It’s Adrian Cade the Hunts CCC Chairman; Q: “Do Ramsey have any black side-screens”? A: Me: “Nope Adrian, – only the white”! Both sided. Q: Adrian; “Leicestershire have requested a ‘white-ball’ game to give their young-guns some white ball experience”! Me: “ Oh, [and so I went quiet, deep in thought]. Best we let the Chairman know that”! “We could, go with black Terram sheeting”. I’ll get onto Stephen Buddle (SB) and let him know.” It’s going to be busy from heron then… After a few even more; hastier calls between SB, myself and Adrian we have a plan; with Michael and Elliot Cafferkey coming to our aid with a part-used roll of black builder’s scaffold sheeting, straight from their Company ‘lock-up’ and with some scaffold poles and timber in our Club garage, and speed of thought we have 2 assembled rolls of Terram stowed ready on the Friday evening to assemble after Saturdays home 2nd XI fixture. Which, luckily for us, but not the 2’s, ended in a low scoring affair allowing us to get on with the task in hand for an early Sunday am start. So, Sunday dawns bright, and the ground looks a picture, on a freshly prepared wicket for hosting the County in their first game after 2 previously rain-affected cancellations. Prepared by RCC groundsman team of Mr John Slack, Stephen Buddle-Chairman & myself. Prior to the first game of 2; Rob Vitas (Hunts Team Manager) and Adrian issued newly sourced coloured County caps for the T20 format (see attached picture-JNW). Our team squad were looking resplendent in Blue/Gold coloured training and match-wear clothing, complete with modern ‘Stags’ insignia; designed by Robin and funded accordingly by Committee, via Treasurer Mr John Walker. Before the usual formalities; team photographs outside the pavilion with individual teams and officials, together, a ‘mixed’ group shot of players in a joint HCCC / Leics CCC Academy Team photo which was nice. A rousing speech from Adrian to the players on the future of the County Club, our intentions for competitive games and its’ new Committee structure was delivered and we were ready to go. Squad: Rob Vitas (Manager), Michael Cafferkey (Capt), Josh Smith, Zeeshan Mansoor, Connor Craig, Jack Mousley, Shakir Mahmood, Peter Rowe, Jamie Dumford, Joash Mathys, Matt Milner, Harrison Craig.

The Editor of The Eagle Editing a College magazine does cause one to wonder from time to time whether the St John's College College really exists at all-and, if so, for whom. Four years ago both the then Editor and the now President wrote and spoke about this (Eagle, no. 272, pp. 58, 78), the latter lamenting the passing of the view that a college was 'a good in itself, axiomatically a good thing.' Mr Crook's gloom was fully justified.

Namely; that the game‘s broadly pre-industrial, rural, and egalitarian culture had been replaced by the ‗gentlemanly‘ ethos of amateurism; a culture which encouraged cricket for its own sake and specific norms of ‗moral‘ behaviour exemplified by idioms‘ such as ‗it‘s not cricket‘.
