The Woodham Mortimer Cricket Club 2012 Tour of the Isle of Wright finished up yesterday after 4 glorious days of cricket.
We played 4, lost 1, drew 1, and won 2. We played some great cricket and all the scores and match reports will be posted in due course.
I wanted to take this opportunity of thanking Geoff Reddin for organising such a fantastic tour, and I know these feelings are shared by the whole group. The travel arrangements, the hotel we stayed in, the taxi service, tour shirts, tour pennants, even the weather, and of course the 4 clubs we played against, all were organised perfectly by Geoff and the success of this tour is a credit to him. We are all looking forward to the 2013 tour, especially Ryde CC who probably did not expect to be beaten and will be looking for revenge!
Thanks must also go to the 4 clubs we played against for providing great facilties, teas, BBQ's and Pizzas, and we all look forward to playing you all again in 2013
I would also like to thank the 4 Boreham players who joined us, Neil Collins. Liam Watts, Stuart Careless, and Peter Kettley, and also to mention the behaviour of the whole group both on and off the pitch. I think we all behaved with dignity and decorum and left the Island with the Woodham Mortimer name held in high regard.
