Saturday saw Cleethorpes Cricket Club hold its annual Awards Dinner for the 2009 season. Guest speaker for the evening was Lancashire Chief Executive and Ex-Aston Villa goalkeeper Jim Cumbes, who presented the awards and gave an amusing speech covering both football in the seventies and his role as Lancashire’s top man, while Charlie Tomlinson welcomed the guests on behalf of the club.
1st X1 players Alex Osmond and Bill Kirby were the main recipients with Alex taking the first X1 bowling awards to add to his two league awards as the Yorkshire league’s top bowler - the first time Cleethorpes have won individual league awards.
Bill Kirby once again took the main batting awards, both top run-scorer and best club average. Ian Bellamy took the club’s main bowling award to cap a fine season that also saw him take both the 3rd X1 batting and bowling trophies.
Other trophy winners included youngster Elliott Drinkell who picked up the 2nd X1 batting and fielding awards and John Zielinski who took the 2nd X1 bowling.
Other youngsters including Jack Harrison, Harry Clewett, Patrick Hughes and Lewis Markham also took home awards, with Joe Farmery picking up the infamous Duck trophy.
A new trophy, the Norman McVicker Clubman of the Year Award, was presented to Groundsman Howard Swain by the late Norman’s wife Rosemary for outstanding services to Cleethorpes Cricket Club (pictured right).
Veteran Bob Leafe also received a framed photo to celebrate his fiftieth season playing for Cleethorpes that has seen him amass nearly 35,000 runs (top picture).
