Lloyds TSB Scotland Prize Winners at Nunholm

21 09 2008

A dozen of the younger players from Dumfries Cricket Club received top quality coaching from Cricket Scotland coaches at a prize winning session at the Nunholm ground last Thursday.

Dumfries CC were one of two clubs in Scotland to win a coaching session, in a Lloyds TSB Scotland promotion, which was attended by the Manager of the Dumfries branch, Tom Armstrong. 

The squad for the Coatbridge Cold Store Colts who play in the local John Henderson & Sons Midweek League were given expert advice and video analysis from Cricket Scotland’s National Community Development Manager Steve Paige, Iain Stewart and Josh Johnston.

They now have much to work on for next year during their off-season training this winter.

Alan Davidson, Richard Rennie heading south for the winter

Just when bats are being thrust away to languish for the winter two young Dumfries CC cricketers are instead packing them for use in Australia. First eleven players Alan Davidson and Richard Rennie are off to experience a season of cricket Oz style.

Alan heads for New South Wales and the Wallsend Tigers club in Newcastle. Dumfries has long standing connections with the club including this season’s skipper Scott Beveridge, and Brett Jackson who starred for Dumfries two seasons ago, both of whom were  Wallsend players, as surprisingly was the current England keeper Tim Ambrose.  Read the rest of this entry »

APD Dumfries 2008 Review

APD Dumfries at the Scottish 20/20 Finals

APD Dumfries at the Scottish 20/20 Finals

Final hurdle the problem for APD Dumfries: APD Dumfries finished season 2008 in a respectable fourth place in National League Division 2. In the process they lost twice to the league winners, Stoneywood-Dyce, once to the side that came second, Dunfermline, once to the side above them in third, Corstophine, and a damaging loss to SMRH who finished eighth. There was the exciting one wicket win over Dunfermline in May but that was the only win over the eventual top three. Read the rest of this entry »

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 »
