Community Group 13 I have been very fortunate to take on this role at a time when youth cricket at Hadleigh is thriving. This is largely due to the commitment, time and effort my predecessor Roy Soilleux put into the role for the previous 20 years or so, so thank you Roy. Of course, I would not be able to manage youth cricket at Special points of interest: Hadleigh without the dedication and support of my fellow Membership and Bar Prices youth coaches, Neil Read (U15’s), Colin Huggins (U11’s), Roy David Grosvenor Soilleux (U9’s) and Adam Fleming (All Stars) who volunteer 100 Club their time and expertise selflessly. I’d also like to thank our team of support coaches; Antonio Greenidge, Sam Handley, Ian Harrison, Spencer Young, Ben & Jack Read, Ruben Vapi- wala, Tommy Byrne and Justus Genthe who have all given their time and effort to support Monday night youth training. I was very pleased to see such a strong turnout week in week out at winter nets this year, where a lot of progress was made. The hard work put in by all was certainly evident during the season in matches where the coaching was put to good use.

We have over 30 kids enjoying themselves under the watch- ful eye of Adam Fleming. One of the things I have tried to develop since becoming Youth Manager is to encour- age our youth players to become an integral part of the club. I am pleased to say that 12 youth players currently play senior cricket for Hadleigh and are represented in all 4 Saturday teams, our Sunday team and the odd cup appearance. Once again a big thank you to everyone for and so much more. all your support and here’s hoping we can Now that’s all the thank yous, let’s move build on our successes next year and be- onto the actual cricket!!!

  • A HISTORY of CLUB CRICKET in COUNTY DURHAM Chapter One
    A HISTORY OF CLUB CRICKET IN COUNTY DURHAM Chapter One..........The eighteenth century In the beginning The first recorded cricket match in Durham was at Raby Castle in 1751. It was five years after the Duke of Cumberland and bayoneted Redcoats slogged through the county’s mud on their way to the Battle of Culloden. Defoe’s account of his travels through Great Britain had not long been published. Defoe found nothing remarkable in Darlington or Chester-le-Street except “dirt” but was impressed by Lumley Castle and acknowledged Lumley coal the best in the country. He thought Durham a “compact neatly contriv’d city” where clergy lived “in all the splendour and magnificence imaginable”. Durham cathedral and Saint Cuthbert’s remains were a shrine for pilgrims but the city was a vulnerable haven riding on a cut-throat sea. The poor lived in slums; the populace was prey to vagabonds, footpads and highwaymen. The Bishop of Durham bewailed “the scorn of religion”. His flock scratched a living on the land or burrowed beneath it for lead and coal; their leisure centred upon drinking and blood sports like cock-fighting. In 1742 John Wesley came across a village “inhabited by colliers only, and as such had been always in the first rank for savage ignorance, and wickedness of every kind. Their grand assembly used to be on the Lord’s Day on which men, women and children met together to dance, fight, curse, and swear, and play chuck-ball, span farthing, or whatever came to hand.” Somehow, sometime the game of cricket took root in these parts.
