The Club had a great night celebrating the season at its Annual Dinner & Dance
After an enjoyable three course meal the club celebrated the clubs and individual successes from the 2017 season.
The Chairman welcomed the 70+ guests and was pleased to see some new members attending for the first time as well as being thankful to those who continue to support the event each year. He went on to congratulate both the junior and senior sections for making 2017 such a successful season. The junior section had won the U13 League, the U11 Cup and League runners up. He thanked Richard (Arch) Archbold (Development Manager), coaches and young leaders that had worked so hard throughout the year. He also thanked Arch for the work he had put in achieving the Club Mark Accreditation for another 3 years.
The Chairman then spoke of the senior teams where the 1st team had come 4th scoring 250pts and had a few close games gone the right way and the weather had not played a part we may have been promoted. The 2nd XI missed promotion by just 8pts and had beaten both of the top teams. The 3rd XI continued to blood new players especially some promising colts and the Sunday XI came a comfortable 10th. It was also fantastic for the club that Adam Larking (745 runs) had won the Kent League Division 5 – 1st team award.
The Chairman thanked all those involved in the club and for making the club such a great place
