YAARS REHAN Trophy!!!
All four teams who took part in the competition this year were from the North-East Mid-Week Cricket League. Kings School Old Boys had two teams and YAARS and The Boiler Clinic were the others.
A round robin saw YAARS win ALL their three games and the others one each. A bowl out resulted in the Boiler Clinic winning through with two strikes from Don Catley and Roy Haygarth against one each from Kings A & B with Marcus Turner and Phil Morse the hit men.
The final resulted in a tie at 58 each and then there was a toss of coin because YAARS favoured a super over rather than the bowl out preferred by the Boiler Clinic. YAARS heads won this! Boiler Clinic scored a creditable 19 off their over with Roy supported by Sam Thornton. However, YAARS hit 23 to take the trophy with Northumberland 3 counties League individual highest score record holder 267* M REHAN supported by Naveed Iqbal DC 333.
Congratulations to YAARS for the second year running.
And a big thank you to Cosy News 333 for sponsoring the YAARS new team kits.....young Basit arrived just in time to play in the tournament 'Bubbar Sher!!!'
Thanks to Peter and Gillian Woodley with David Craven for umpiring and scoring and to Erin Richardson and the rest of the Macmillan team for a super day set up by Blagdon
and their obliging groundsman.
