It was an honour to attend Broughton Cricket Club's presentations last night and to hand over a fine selection of trophies to winners of all ages. The event proved very enjoyable and highly successful, with a magnificent buffet - in keeping with their excellent match-day teas always provided by this homely club at the Phil Grundy Centre.
Chairman Phil Glentworth has kindly let us have a printed copy of his extensive review of the season, delivered last night, plus a full list of award winners.
We will be running the report as soon as time permits, together with a good spread of pictures.
They kindly sent Craig Hall in his car to take me over to Broughton Workingmen's Club for the event, and Tom Brock and his other half, Vicky Little, saw we got back to Brigg safely in a hired mini-bus driven by one of my old Brigg Town clubmates, Jack The Taxi.
It was good to chat to former long-serving Lincolnshire wicketkeeper Nigel Dobbs about matches long ago on the Minor Counties circuit, in which he played and on which I reported at length.
Thanks also go to seam bowler Andrew Hillyard, second team skipper Dave Jones and chairman Phil for the drinks.
The only slight disappointment was failing to win a prize in the raffle, for which a super and extensive array of prizes was donated. Clearly I should have stumped up for more than a fiver's worth of tickets.
Anyway, as we said, there's a full report, pix and list of prize-winners coming in due course...
