Vauxhall Mallards CC Newsletter – July 2016
Important Club Statement! Following the recent news that Parkdean Resorts have purchased Vauxhall Holiday Park from the Biss family, we understand that there has been speculation on how this sale will impact the future of Vauxhall Mallards Cricket Club. With this in mind, we feel it is very important to quash any rumours immediately and can confirm that there will be NO impact on the funding of our club for the remainder of this season or the 2017 season. Over the past two years, there has been significant investment and commitment from the Biss family in the creation of the Wilkerson’s Field Ground which runs parallel to the main QEII ground to develop facilities in our opinion, second to none within the county. On top of the development of Wilkerson’s Field, which our second XI has played on throughout the 2016 season, we have attempted to improve our offering of cricket at all levels. We have introduced a Sunday XI into the Mid Norfolk Sunday League, with the view of giving those not being selected or available on a Saturday, the chance of senior cricket. This has proven to be a success with some great performances from many of our younger players, helping us beat some strong opposition. It has however, unfortunately clashed with lots of junior county fixtures this season. The 2016 season has also seen us increasing the amount of teams in our junior set up with us running sides at U11, U13, U15 & U19. The progress made throughout the 2016 season is in line with our expectations with the 1st XI comprehensively winning the Norfolk T20 last week and currently challenging in 3rd position in the East Anglian Premier League. The 2nd XI remains in the hunt for promotion from Norfolk Alliance Division 2 currently in 2nd place. Our junior teams have challenged at the back end of tournaments with the highlight being our Under 13’s this week winning the Norfolk Cricket Board U13 festival at Manor Park. Although the club is heading in the right direction, there is still a long way to go for us to be where we would like it to be, hence the importance for our current members to be on board and support the club in the years to come. With all of this is mind, we are pleased to share that we are going to commence work on Wilkerson’s Field from the end of August to increase the size of the square to accommodate us entering a 3rd XI into the Norfolk Cricket League in This will assist the club in offering cricketers of all ages and abilities the opportunity to play senior cricket, whilst continuing to help support the development of our current and future junior cricketers through their individual paths from junior cricket to hopefully representing the club in the East Anglian Premier League. If anyone does have any thoughts or queries, please do not hesitate to contact me to discuss further. Matthew Seager Head of Senior Cricket Vauxhall Mallards CC Tel: May 2015

Junior Results Under 9 / 11 No completed fixtures Under 15’s One competitive match and a friendly for the Under 15’s in July, both resulting in comfortable victories. Hudson De Lucchi carried on his excellent form with yet another 31* retired, but he was pipped to the POTM award by Archie Bradnock for his superb spell of 3/12 in the friendly against Eastbourne College. Under 19’s Just one fixture completed, a 17 run defeat to Acle. The highlights of the match were a 5 wicket haul for Hudson De Lucchi, which included a hat-trick! A quick fire 37 from captain Connor Green and a well compiled 26* from Luke Marchant. A big thank you to Connor for taking on the responsibility of organising the team throughout the season! Under 13’s Just the one fixture completed in July against Old Catton which included 4 batsmen retiring not out, well done to Ben Ashford, Archie Bradnock, Harry Nunn and Jonty Black for their scores, and to Sam Utting for his 2/10 in the 149 run victory. The POTM is awarded to Ben Ashford for his superb knock of 33*.

Senior Cricket Update 1st XI A very mixed month for the 1st team as they started and ended the month with 1 wicket victories but lost ground on the leading pack in the middle with batting collapses being the common theme of the month!! Notable mentions for the month go to Connor Green and Brett Stolworthy for the calmness shown in seeing the teams home in those narrow victories, Devon Conway for scoring over 200 runs in the month. However, for the second consecutive month, the POTM award goes to Paul Bradshaw for his 19 wickets in the month including 3/13 in the T20 victory over Norwich. 2nd XI The 2nd XI lost a bit of ground during the month of July but still remain very much in the hunt for promotion. The month started with an abandonment needing, 7 to win with just 11 balls remaining vs Saham Toney. Then followed a victory against Fakenham and two defeats to rivals Bradfield and Gt. Witchingham, which Tom Miller showed his hitting prowess with scores of 64, 62, 39. He narrowly misses out on POTM thanks to Troy Allan’s 129 to see out the month with a comprehensive victory over Bradenham. Sunday XI 2 victories and a concession for the Sunday XI in July. Well done to the experienced batters Caswell, Todd and Ewart for their contributions with the bat but a special mention for all the young players for their contributions with ball, seeing the side home in style!
