General News
The most glittering night of the West Sussex social calendar saw a big crowd pack the pavilion for the Fernhurst Cricket Club annual Awards Dinner. The full list is below but a special mention must go to 2nd XI lynchpin Abdur Rahman who scooped all three team awards. Sam Meier received the Captain's Award for the 1st XI while his sister Ella won the bowling trophy for the Fernhurst Flames. The Players' Player trophy for the women went to Kate Ashdown: the prize is named after pioneering England player Molly Hide who lived on Blackdown. Young leg spinner Charlie Langridge won the Sunday bowling shield while fast bowler Hamish Unwin was named the 'Best Junior' playing in senior cricket. The ground staff team of Will Dyer and Jack Whittington were deserved winners of the Fernhurst Diamonds award. They responded to all the usual challenges of a season, with a couple more loaded on top, with typical dedication and good humour. Congratulations to all.
One of the club's Vice Presidents officially opened the refurbished terrace before the final Saturday game of the season. Patricia Hingston made a generous donation to ensure we could make big improvements to the 'high traffic' area within the picket fence. Patricia unveiled the plaque in honour of her late husband Trevan, who was President of Fernhurst CC from 1987-2009. It includes the famous quotation from the great cricket writer Neville Cardus, "It is far more than a game, this cricket."
The first Saturday in May means the return of men’s league cricket to the Rec, with the 2nd XI at home to Brook and the 1st XI travelling to Worplesdon. The I’Anson League is the oldest, continuous village league and was a closed shop for many years, before opening up in the mid-1990s, which is when Fernhurst joined. Frensham, Grayshott & Headley are among the opponents and, much more recently, Haslemere have joined the fray.
