2nd XI skipper leads from the front

Dereck has been instrumental in moulding the 2nd XI outfit for a number of seasons now. Leading the way on the field – with both bat and ball – and off, he always goes about his cricket with good humour and good sportsmanship.

Making 360 runs last summer at an average of 33 (including a century), combined with 9 wickets at 31, Dereck had another solid, all-round season. Even more important though was the leadership he provided in a challenging season. Throughout some difficult days in the field, the team he led continued to love its cricket as well as playing together.

For that, Dereck couldn’t be more deserving of the Tim ‘Webko’ Booth Trophy.

Best and fairest goes to…

Dereck Cameron. See above.

Quiet achiever serving the club

The Apache of the Season award for 2018/19 went to Duncan Pryse-Jones who has been a long-term stalwart of the club. DP-J consistently turned up and put in for the club this season, as he has for many seasons before, also earning himself an Outstanding Club Service Medal. All the while enjoying his cricket: he embodies what it means to play for the Apaches. Congratulations, Duncan.

Inaugural Tim ‘Webko’ Booth trophy awarded to Will Sammuri

The Apaches have capped off the 2017/18 summer season with its awards night at The Lakes Hotel.

The feature of the night was the awarding of the inaugural Tim ‘Webko’ Booth trophy to Club Secretary Will Sammuri. The award is deeply significant for the Apaches, and recognises the passion and commitment with which Webko held the club together for so many years.

While Webko will always remain sorely missed by all Apaches, the 2017/18 season saw a new generation come to the fore, led capably by Will Sammuri. As Club Secretary, Sammuri has worked selflessly, along with the executive, to keep the Apaches a strong club in summer and winter competitions.

Sammuri accepted the award with great humility, noting the importance placed on the award.

Many thanks to Bryan Seymour, who was the driving force behind the Tim ‘Webko’ Booth trophy, as well as Lisa and Lox for their assistance.

Isaac Williams clubman of the year

The Clubman award went to Isaac Williams, who stepped into the leadership role of the First XI. Williams displayed mature captaincy throughout the year and took the Apaches to the semi-finals.

David Waterson took out both club batting (569 runs) and wicket keeping (11 catches, 7 stumpings) awards on the way to winning the Club Champion after another impressive season. Pat Foley surprised no-one in winning the club bowling award, snaring 36 wickets at an average of 13.53.

Gazi Hosain was rookie of the year, taking 17 wickets at an average of 20.12.

Special mention also goes to Regan Behrendorff, Al Yap, Paul McLean and Chris Day who were awarded the Outstanding Club Service medal. All four served the club by agreeing to play up in the seconds team on various occasions.
