- Much as we missed Matt Salisbury playing for us yesterday, we are delighted that he had a great day playing for Hampshire agains Warwickshire:
He took two wickets in his first over, including that of Ian Bell. which goes down as a good start in anyone's books! He also took a big six and a four batting at number 11 to ease his side beyond 500 runs. With Warwickshire 49-6 overnight they have a long way to go.
Well done, Matt!

- It is with great sadness we inform you that Michael Wright, our President, passed away suddenly yesterday, age 76:
Michael had been at the club since he was 8, as a spectator, then he became a scorer until he was old enough to play and went on to captain both the Saturday and Sunday 1st XIs. League Delegate and Ground Manager were other roles he took on many years ago and continued in those roles until he passed away. He returned to scoring when he gave up playing.
Funeral arrangements when known will be posted on this website. - 27th April 2017

- SHENFIELD Cricket Club will host a national youth initiative later this year:
The club will be hosting an All Stars Cricket scheme, which has been organised by the England and Wales Cricket Board aimed at providing children aged five to eight with a great first experience in the sport.
It will run for a period of eight weeks and is a game based programme that is suitable for all skill levels.
The initiative has been designed to ensure that more youngsters get a solid cricketing foundation, in addition to encouraging physical activity in a “safe and enjoyable” environment.
The programme is built on solid foundations of social and physical development for children. Our club coaches and activators are trained to provide every child with a great first experience in cricket.
The eight weeks will be action packed, with fun games and the chance to learn new skills.
The first session will take place on Saturday 20th May and finish on 8th July, with each session running from 09.30-10.30am.
A personalised kit bag will also be given to each participant, with the programme costing £40.
