Award Winners at Club Dinner

Third XI Batsman of the Year It was a very poor year for the Third XI with a large number of players used through the season but Gary Thompson stood out with consistent scores and recieved the Ronnie Thompson Memorial Cup for Third XI Batsman of the Year.

Third XI Bowler of the Year The winner is an all-rounder who has been a stalwart on the Third XI for a number of years and, as well as scoring important runs, Scott Blair was their leading wicket taker and received the G4S Cup for Third XI PLayer of the Year.

Fourth XI Player of the Year This year's winner is undisputed because he was leading run-scorer and top wicket-taker for the Fourth XI. Although Gavin Richards played a lot of cricket further up the Club where we will surely see more of him in future, he still managed to average 32 with the bat with a highest score of 79 and took 15 wickets.

Under-15 Bowler of the Year In a very good Under-15 bowling attack, this year's winner, Matt Campbell, was outstanding and his performances earned selection for the Belfast Under-14's in the Lord Taverners' Under-14 Cup in Arundel. Against Ballymena in the Under-15 League, he had the amazing figures of 6 for 14 from his 4 overs and also recieved a special award for that feat.

Under-11 Player of the Year This year's winner was just 10 years old when he scored the only half- century for the Under-11 team this season. Max Burton's innings of 52 in the Under-11 Plate against Ards was the highlight of the season. Max was the leading run-scorer and also the team wicket-keeper.
