GCC u11s v Gt Ellingham u11s at The Langley. Sunday 15 May, 2016 Batting first Garby u11s notched up a hefty 160 runs off 16 overs with no wickets lost. Batsmen have to retire at 30 runs so the scoresheet read as follows: Elliot Harte 32 (retired), Jack Whitlam 34 (retired), James Davey 22* and Daniel Worby 26* with extras making up the difference. In reply, Ellingham were 43 for 5 off their 16 overs – so a big win for Garboldisham by 117 runs. The Ellingham wickets were shared between Ethan Murphy, Beth Champion, Ronnie Stevenson and Daniel Worby with a run-out from Ronnie Stevenson as well. Well done to the u11s! Daniel Worby, Elliot Hart, Jack Whitlam and u11s team manager James Worby  

Matt Allin (pictured above) hit a massive 171 runs at the Langley to help steer GCC 3rd XI to an easy victory over Northwold CC Match results and summaries for Saturday 14 May 2016 It was a sunny but very chilly day up at The Langley. The 1sts won the toss and put Cromer CC in to bat. Garby kept the bowling tight but the Cromer wickets were hard to shift and by the end of their 50 overs the visitors were 241 for 3 with their opening batsman Matthew Warnes batting through with 115 not out. It was a par score for this pitch and one that GCC felt comfortable in chasing down. However, Garby got off to a slow start and then lost the early wickets of Kristian Williman, Johnny Leech and Dan Constable for just 9 runs apiece and so scoreboard pressure gradually started to build. Henry Phoenix was ticking along steadily but when his wicket fell, and then Kieran Paske was out after facing just two balls, the pressure was really ramped up. Captain Danny …

Neville Kemp scored 106 not out and Louis Hart (pictured above) scored 66 to help steer the 4ths to victory over Beeston It was a mixed bag of results for GCC on Saturday with home wins for the 2nds and 4ths and away defeats for the 1sts and 3rds. Here’s a round-up of all the games: The 1sts travelled to Brooke. The hosts won the toss and elected to bat and were 226 for 9 after 50 overs. Kieran Pask was the pick of the Garby bowlers with 4 wickets for 49 runs. The 1sts fought hard to chase down Brooke’s total and captain Danny Cash picked up a half century, but with two key Garby batsmen missing from this week’s line-up (Kristian Williman and Henry Phoenix) the 1sts came unstuck and found themselves bowled out for 196 in the 44th over and 30 runs short. Meanwhile, back at The Langley, the 2nds were having more success. Rocklands won the toss and put Garboldisham in to bat. A sparkling innings of 73 not-out from Andy Freake and …

Photo above: History is made at Garboldisham CC as Kristian Williman opens the batting for the 1st XI in their first ever match in the Norfolk Alliance Premier League The club made an excellent start to the season with all four teams picking up a win. The day was rounded off very nicely with the brilliant news that First team bowler Rob Fuller’s partner Leanne had given birth to a baby girl! The 1sts very first game in the Norfolk Alliance Premier League turned out to be an absolute thriller that went right down to the wire. Visitors Downham Town CC won the toss and put Garby in to bat. Kristian Williman appears to have lost none of his good form with the bat from last season as he got the team off to a good start notching up 75 runs and the scoreboard was looking quite healthy at 100+ for just 1 wicket. But then the game was turned on its head as Downhams’ overseas signing N Kelly took a hat-trick. The scoreboard was steadied and Garby finished on 204 …
