JMS Nunholm 2008 Review

10 09 2008

Comfortable in the end for JMS Nunholm: JMS Nunholm’s 2008 season must rank ultimately as a very successful one. The players can be pleased with their eventual creditable fifth position in Division 2 of the Western Union – a division from which they had been relegated on their previous three attempts to stay there! The Dumfries second eleven were undefeated by any team from below them in the league and had two of their matches against the bottom two clubs cancelled. Read the rest of this entry »

Hockey: Ladies win Ayr tournament

7 09 2008

The Dumfries ladies’ first game on Saturday was against the strong host team of the tournament, Ayr.

Dumfries were struggling to find their feet and a very frustrating game saw many chances missed with Swanston, McCubbin and Miller all coming close.

Unfortunately, Ayr scored an opportunistic goal against the run of play and then closed down their defence to seal them game 0-1.

Not pleased with this start to the weekend, there was a tactical change before the ladies’ next opposition – a young team from Kellburn. Read the rest of this entry »

Stuart Corbett-Byers square cuts in the semi-final run chase

APD Dumfries travelled to Glasgow on Sunday for their third attempt to play the semi-final of the Scottish Murgitroyd 20/20 Cup. However the side fell short in their attempt to get the better of Premier League side Carlton.

Bowling first they encountered a step up in batting nous as Scotland opener Watts and ex-Saltire English showed their experience. They found the singles, turned ones into hard runs twos, and if there was a loose ball they made sure it disappeared to the boundary. Read the rest of this entry »
