Last week something very unusual and very special happened on a local cricket field. One of our u13 and u15 players, Tommy Stewart, was playing a school match. Having opened the bowling Tommy finished his spell with the figures of 10 wickets for 2 runs!
However good you are, the skill, effort and bit of luck to pick up all 10 makes this a remarkable and very special moment. And it seems the media agrees – the feat has now appeared in The Times, on Radio 4’s Test Match Special and the Blackmore Vale Magazine, no less.
Hats off to Tommy!
Buckhorn Weston v Stokeinteignhead CC – Sunday 1st June 2014
After weeks of constant rain and zero sunshine, Buckhorn finally managed to fulfil a home fixture and on Sunday the first cricket match of the 2014 season was played at Buckhorn’s own home of cricket. It was an enjoyable game, against a touring side from Devon, who made Buckhorn their last stop on their journey home after games in Hampshire on the Friday and Saturday. Continue reading
The day began with an unprecedented event on May bank holiday – the sun rose without cloud or the threat of rain. Ahead lay the much anticipated inaugural match between Buckhorn and a touring side from London: the Sands End Swordsmen. Continue reading
Many thanks to those who worked hard on the first Saturday in April to get the grounds, nets, and pavilion in shape for the coming season.
They also made sure the all-weather strip is ready for the coming summer: hopefully just an insurance against another damp summer!
There will still be more to do both before and during the season – and we really do appreciate any help you can offer, so do please get in touch with Robin or Simon. And if you don’t know Robin, he’s the tall one standing at the back!

All members are invited and encouraged to attend.
Last Friday, 10th January 2014, saw a good crowd gather at The Stapleton Arms to put the 2013 season to bed and look forward to the 2014 one. Drinks were drunk, good food was eaten, awards were made and abuse was given out!
We look forward to seeing lots of people at the indoor nets sessions (see initial details in recent post) and at the ground when the sun finally shines again.
