Back in June, Richard is challenged to create Cadey Cricket Club-here he is to tell us about an inaugural match of the Club.
While I am writing this my head is still certain fuzzy after a festive drink as a result of the Torrance Community Cricket Club of the inaugural match. Rewind to the beginning of June and had not TCCC. However, having been set a challenge form cricket team in my village north of Glasgow by Macaulay and Co before three months I am now the proud captain and Chairman of the Club of 30 cricket enthusiasts! Itself and the vice-captain Graham (Ringer me away) have actually played the game before. While seemingly only too pleased to see the ability to come from cricket ' closet ', all other is a complete novice.
After 10 weeks exercise every Saturday morning, rain or Sun (typically rain), we are the field for our first match against Gargunnock CC in the shadow of Stirling Castle. The sun shone and our bowling and fielding is superb. I was filled with pride to see the boys themselves throwing in front of over speeding cricket balls with no fear of bodily injury, intent only on save of the series. Moreover they are clung to each catch to their way!

After tea served for our goal of 144 runs to win. (I) of the front and open the batting with Graeme. I managed a small but perfectly formed 5 runs before the 1 ball of 3rd, above-not a pledge between the other location. I was gutted ... Sulkily watched the rest of the game from the sidelines and my team of v〃zmno?nost are inspiring surroundings. I looked on in AWE in their efforts and marvelled at Graham, which swash-buckled road for magnificent 64. He joined the wicket of 18-year-old Scott, who immediately hit a superb six! He picked up a BAT for the first time before the six weeks, the opposition are somewhat gobsmacked; We all cheered wildly.
Alas, despite our courageous experience we fell from the run-Chase. This morning I hoped we will compete, but in the end part of me rued missed opportunity actually wins the game.
However, this is a remarkable achievement by my team. In fact we may have lost the match, but the spirit was so high that is sure to be a victory. Rotate the next season!
