Cricket: Season 2011 Award Winners
8 11 2011
2011 Dumfries CC Club Award Winners
He won the award for first eleven player of the year for his performances with both bat, ball and in the field. He was also the winner of the Players’ Player of the Year from player votes cast throughout the season.
His performances helped APD Dumfries win the Scottish Championship and to win the SCU Trophy Cup competition, both for the first time. He was the side’s in-form batsman as the top Dumfries run scorer in the league with an average of forty four including four fifties. He was also the top wicket taker with eighteen wickets after bowling the most overs for the side. Importantly for the side his best ever club figures of 6 for 22 enabled Dumfries to recover to beat Kelburne and stay in contention for the title and, in the field, he somehow also managed to snap up the most catches.
The winner of the Second Eleven Player of the Year was Captain Stuart Alexander for leading the Nunholm bowling attack and steering what was at times a young side in the first year in the West SNCL Reserve League where the side finished mid table. Keeping the trophies in the family was Niall Alexander who was awarded Young Player of the Year for his quick bowling for the seconds, firsts, West U15s and in particular for Scotland U15s.
The Jimmy Steele Award for the season’s best bowling performance was won by young Cameron Telfer for remarkable figures of 7 for 23 for the seconds in their away match at Langloan and in its inaugural year the award for Women’s Player of the Year went to teenager Kirsty Strachan.
Meanwhile, on Friday November the 25th the Club will hold its AGM at Nunholm at 7pm.

David McNaught Memorial Tree Planting
10 10 2011
David McNaught
Memorial tree planting
Saturday October 15th
1.30pm at Nunholm
All friends invited
David was one of the founder members of Dumfries Running Club and gave years of service as club treasurer and he was absolutely fundamental to the growth and development of the Dumfries Half marathon that celebrated its 30th anniversary this September.
David was also a long standing and dependable committee member at Dumfries Sports Club who modestly put in a power of work behind the scenes. He always offered encouragement and took great delight in the successes of others and this has came out very strongly in the reaction to his passing. It is entirely fitting that his ashes will be interred at his spiritual home of Nunholm and a tree planted in his memory. (Extract from David McNaught’s obituary)

Tennis: Dumfries Tennis Club to start indoor coaching for kids
24 09 2011Dumfries Tennis Club is set to beat the winter weather by moving indoors.
The Nunholm club have booked Max High Academy sports hall to run a pilot scheme of mini-tennis red & orange classes in the run-up to Christmas.
Starting on Saturday, October 22 and running for seven weeks, classes will take place from 9am to 10am and then from 10am to 11am.
The club is also working closely with the local Active Schools team, with a view to holding more mini tennis classes from January to March.
The new initiative comes after Dumfries Tennis Club and Tennis Coach Colin Dunbar looked at ways to try and increase tennis participation.
Sadly, Dumfries & Galloway is one of only a few areas in Scotland which doesn’t have any indoor tennis courts. This new indoor initiative being piloted by the Dumfries Club is the first step in what is hopefully the starting point to raising the games profile in the region with the ultimate desire to create an indoor facility for Dumfries & Galloway.
Having the chance to deliver coaching sessions indoors during the winter months, allows the children to continue developing their tennis and helps them to participate in our sport all year round.
For further details or to book a place, visit the Dumfries Tennis Club website at www.dumfriessportsclub.co.uk/tennis or email tennis@dumfriessportsclub.co.uk or download the indoor flyer here.
