Following the first digital publication last year, we have decided to continue with the new modern design because it was a great success. This year we look to mix the old with the new (similar to many club teams out there!). The 2014 Yearbook has become a digital e-book with turning pages and a book style appearance. I would like to say I am privileged to be the editor of such a prestigious historic yearbook whose archives date back to around the 1970s’. As a University student with a love of cricket, this has been a very exciting project for me. The good news is that the player statistics look a lot healthier than the previous rain affected season! In complete contrast to the 2012/13 season we saw the long awaited return of the large, bright, warm circle in the sky. Gone were the days of turning up to a ground to see sodden grass and puddles on and around the pitch. The weather was brilliant and everyone was confident and excited to complete a full season of competitive cricket. Now I’m going to leave you to enjoy reliving the cricketing year of 2013 in Dorset. I hope that 2014 is a more prosperous year for all, and not just on the cricket field.

Hill, B.Medler 6 THE DORSET CRICKET YEARBOOK 2014 Dorset Cricket Board Report It has been another difficult year trying to balance the Board's Budget which influenced by a number of factors under review, along with our profile and how we are perceived by the public. We have been involved with a number of workshops at the behest of the ECB in which we have reconsidered our position and how we best serve cricket in Dorset. Surveys have been carried out, information digested and applied to our policy from the outcomes of brainstorming sessions. Results are soon to be published so that the public can be aware of how we operate. Alan Graham has decided to stand down as Secretary of the Board and will now take over as Secretary of the Dorset Cricket League, an appointment which will benefit Dorset Cricket. I would like to thank Alan on behalf of the Board for the high standards that have been set. With any luck the sun will shine this year and I hope for everyone involved in Dorset Cricket, a successful season. V B LEWIS Chairman Dorset Cricket Board 7 THE DORSET CRICKET YEARBOOK 2014 Cricket Development Office Back to Directory The Leaze, King Street, Wimborne BH21 1DY. 01202 881349 Keith Brewer – Director of Cricket – [email protected] – 07785722270 Rob Newton – Cricket Development Officer – [email protected] – 07788140924 Greg Parsons – Cricket Development Officer – [email protected] - 07788 140921 Gill Jones – Competitions and Match Manager – [email protected] – 07515 285078 Director of Cricket’s Report The 2013 season was very enjoyable, not least because the sun was shining and the majority of the scheduled matches were played. After the near complete disaster of the 2012 season it felt as though cricket had emerged again and took its rightful place in the sun. Thankfully no Clubs were taken under by the revenue problems caused by the previous season and the Dorset Funeral Plan League fixtures were nearly all played. Club cricket occupied a lot of our thoughts during 2013 as the Board and development team spent a good deal of time and resources supporting the network of clubs through Chance to Shine, Clubmark, facility applications and general club programmes. The ECB and Sport England are now fully focussed on increasing participation and retaining participation and the club network is vital to this if we are not going to see numbers drop off in the face of the ever increasing pressures of modern life. The main focus in 2013 for me was ensuring that we as a Board complied with the ECB requirements for a county board to be ‘Ready to invest’ The Board members and staff attended a series of workshops to understand the outcomes process and to identify those outcomes. This involved using insight and self-assessment to understand what our customers require and for us to improve our operations. This culminated in the publication of our Outcomes document which is copied below The Board achieved full ‘Ready to invest’ status in October this year. I would like to thank my fellow staff, Greg Parsons, Rob Newton and Gill Jones for their hard work and dedication and also Board members led by Barry Lewis and John Ridout, for their support throughout the process. The outcomes were identified after a series of discussions and consultation with representatives from all areas of cricket in the county. Hopefully at least some of them will reflect the aspirations of all of those involved in cricket in Dorset. We had already pre-empted the outcomes and participation work by commissioning the complete review of league cricket in the county through Alan Graham and John Ridout and a number of key people who attended the review meetings. I became fully involved in this process and the outcome was a new structure for the League which hopefully will cater for every level of player. This should provide enjoyable competitive cricket in a format which allows time to get home or socialise at a decent hour. Finding a format of competition which suits everyone is not easy, but I believe wholeheartedly, everyone who has attended the review meetings has the interests of Dorset cricket at heart. What’s more, their energy and knowledge made the whole process enjoyable and challenging. We will see how this goes in 2014 and we will use the experience to make further improvements in the coming years, based on feedback received and outcomes achieved. One of our goals is to find a way to link to the Southern League and as I write, there are possible moves ahead to facilitate this. 8 THE DORSET CRICKET YEARBOOK 2014 Other areas of work that were very important to Dorset in 2013 included the work we have done to try and save Dean Park for cricket and this has been a very challenging and complex process. As we move towards the deadline of November 2014 I am still optimistic that cricket will continue at this iconic ground well into the future. The fantastic work done by Gill Jones, Tim Hill and Rob Newton with the schools programme has seen a massive increase in the schools taking part in competitions and receiving coaching. Getting more children to join the clubs has been our biggest challenge. The other area that we have had great success with is the expansion of women’s and girls’ cricket and a big thank you must go to the clubs, including Poole, Parley, Broadstone and Shillingstone who have developed this area. Next year we will see the return of a Women’s league for the first time and that will mark a watershed for the 5 year plan we have put in place to develop the women’s and girls’ game. As I write this report, the Ashes have begun and you will probably be reading this in the light of, hopefully, a series win for England. In Dorset we are doing our bit for the National game by having an unprecedented five players join the Hampshire Academy, two of whom, Lewis McManus and Tom Barber are now playing for the England Under 19s. Great credit must go to Matt Keech and Rob Newton for the work they have done in developing all the EPP players.

In the absence of any Second XI cricket and the One Day Cup competition, the Bob Willis Trophy reports have been expanded to include a write up for each day’s play as well as the full scorecards. Sadly all fixtures were played behind closed doors so hopefully these extended reports will enable readers to get the feeling of actually being at the game! In addition, the Somerset Women’s team reports plus the Boys and Girls Pathway write ups are included in the first half of the book as they now come under the remit of Somerset CCC rather than the Somerset Cricket Board.

    THE DAZZLER EXTRA – ON THIS WEEK – JUNE 21 June 25 2007 The Dazzler reported the unlikely pairing of Lauren Griffiths and Monty Panesar featuring in the same team, as was the case with Ali Cutler and Graeme Hick! At this time, the Chester Evening Leader newspaper selected a weekly Cricket Hot Shots XI, made up of players who had made an impact in the world of cricket over the previous week. The eclectic mix for the weekend of 9/10 June included Monty Panesar, Chester Boughton Hall’s century making batsman Jim Gillson, Andy Hall and Danny Leech who broke Cheshire’s Minor Counties Championship partnership record, and at number six: LAUREN GRIFFITHS - The Cheshire captain and wicketkeeper took three dismissals against Middlesex, including catching England's Beth Morgan off Dawn Prestidge. And alongside Graeme Hick in the 16/17 June team was: ALI CUTLER – The Chester Boughton all-rounder made 106 runs and took five wickets to spearhead her side to a convincing victory against Appleton. June 20 2010 Cheshire Women powered their way to their first win of the year with a record-breaking victory over Worcestershire, division two’s bottom team. The Cheshire total of 284-4 easily surpassed the previous mark of 231-6 made against East Anglia in 1999, and the winning margin of 173 runs bettered the 170-run win over Sussex 2nd XI in 1998. Dawn Prestidge scored 107 from 104 deliveries with 16 fours, and this was Cheshire’s highest individual innings for 12 years and only six runs shy of the county record set by Sarah Collyer in 1998.
