3 Notes

Players may be nominated for representative cricket in Essex or Cambridgeshire if they are considered ready to perform at such a level. However, playing at this level relies on commitment as well as talent. If you feel you would like to be considered or if you feel you or your parents cannot make this commitment, please speak to your manager.

Highest batting average min. 5 innings/Lowest min. 10 overs. Please note that a more accurate picture of performance can be gained the more overs bowled or the more innings batted. A low minimum has been chosen to involve as many players as possible in the statistics. Overall batting and bowling awards are made by managers in consultation with coaches and others. There are no definitive criteria.

Club caps awarded to any established Academy player taking 5 in one match (including 5 stumpings and/or catches by a keeper), scoring a century, playing at County level or being a first choice selection for the senior SWCC teams or village teams with whom SWCC have a formal arrangement. From 2009 Club caps will be awarded to girls for taking 3 wickets or catches and scoring 50 in a match as well as for County or adult selection.

Players’ Player may be awarded on the basis of Player of the Match nominations or a vote amongst other squad members.

Academy records have been compiled since 2003. There may well be superior performances before that – just let us know.

The Alfred Adams Batting Award. Alfred Adams scored 279 not out by batting all day against Bishop’s Stortford for SWCC on the Common on 11 July 1837. At the time it was the highest recorded individual score in the country. Fiona Harris was the first woman to play competitively for SWCC in 2002. She still plays for SWCC when she can. John Smith first played for SWCC in 1946 and retired in 1963 at the age of 35. He now lives in Chelmsford. He is the tallest of the team in many of the clubhouse photos of the 1950s and 60s.

Academician of the Year is awarded to the academy player who has made the strongest commitment to his or her own development and to the work of the Academy and Club. It may be related to the “Clubman of the Year” award for each age group.

Jack Petchey Awards are given for outstanding personal achievement. Winners receive a certificate, a medallion and £200 to be spent on the club.

We currently do not issue individual medals or trophies, preferring to issue certificates. This maximises involvement and keeps costs low. However, sponsors for individual trophies shown on the previous page are always welcome.

The team batted first in 16 matches out of 17 and after early narrow wins against Sawston (1 run) & NCI (23), won 10 matches by margins of 80+ runs (6 by 100+).

Squad under 10

Manager Paul Gadd Coach Mark Hughes Captain n/a Vice Captain n/a Review of season A number of extremely good games and some very close games lost. The size of the squad presented challenges in ensuring everyone had a fair number of games - in the end 35 players represented SWCC U10s in at least one league match in the season. We were also fortunate to be able to arrange so many friendly games, with particular thanks to Elmdon. The players had a very positive approach , particularly noticeable was the support they showed each other, the general standard of fielding and their respect for the opposition. 2/10 in CYCA league
