U11 Win "Four Village Tournament"
Congratulations to the Under 11's for winning the 'Four Village Tournament' held on Sunday 9th August at Keymer & Hassocks.
The team had a 100% record on the day with wins over Portslade by 18 runs, the All Stars X1 by 60 runs and hosts Keymer & Hassocks by 10 runs. The side was well captained by Callum who made sure that everybody did their bit, but special mention should be made of Liam who was perhaps the outstanding 'all round player' of the Tournament, but essentially it was a team effort with more than one spectator complementing us on our fielding, and it was this, more than anything that won us the tourement.
Well done everybody and fully deserved for all the hard work you have all put in this year.

St. Peter's Primary Schools Festival - 9th June 2008
A big thanks to everyone who turned out to support the Primary Schools festival at Henfield Cricket Club. Five local schools, St. Peter's (Henfield), St. Andrews (Steyning), Upper Beeding, Ashurst and Jolesfield, competed in this annual tournament on a hot, sunny day. St. Andrews won the festival, beating St. Peter's in a decider that would have taken the league to a three-way tie with Jolesfield had St. Peter's pulled off a win.
Our club hosted a great day for everyone. Mon and Olga, for preparing the usual great lunches, and all our colts' coaching team, deserve thanks for helping the event to run smoothly and for supporting the schools' teams. And above all, the schools teams and their staff deserve great praise for enduring the warm weather and playing cricket in such good spirit, and with no little skill. Seeing the common packed with young cricketers was a pleasure. Well done to everyone.
