Shenfield Colt selected for prestigious Banbury Festival
Following four successful trials, Shenfield's Sam Bear has been selected to take part in the Banbury festival this year.
Played at Loughborough University between the 30th July and the 5th August, The Bunbury Festival, formally known as the ECB David English Bunbury Festival, is an annual cricket tournament for the best under-15 boys players in England.
First held in 1987, the ECB took over the running of the tournament in 2018, becoming the first stage in the ECB's Player Pathway to the England Cricket Team. The format will see 56 players divided into four squads and compete in both 50 over and T20 competitions.
As of 2018, 91 of the cricketers who have played at the tournament have gone on to play for England, including national team captains Michael Vaughan, Andrew Flintoff and Joe Root, while 10 of the 11 England players in the 2019 Cricket World Cup final played at the event.
Sam's selection for this prestigious event is a great achievement and it is with much pride that all at Shenfield Cricket Club wish him the very best of luck! - 22nd June 2022

We are sad to report that Peter Robins, former SCC player, has passed away. His brother, Phil, sent the message below.
I’m sad to let you know that my younger brother Peter passed away in Hobart, Tasmania last night. Peter was a Shenfield all-rounder from 1960 until 1970 when he joined us in Australia. He was a deadly in-swing bowler and a very good bat. He also captained the 1st XI. He captained Brentwood School 1st XI with David Acfield as his vice-captain. He played for Pembroke College, Cambridge University and Incogniti. When he came here he played District Cricket for Flinders University in Adelaide and the Australian National University in Canberra.
R.I.P dear brother and mate. July 1946 - June 2022. - 13th June 2022

A message from our Chairman, Martin Ekers
Dear All,
Colts Membership - Details here - I have pleasure in attaching the 2022 Colts Membership form for you to complete and e mail back to us.
The payment details are also on the form. Please avoid the temptation to ask us if the money has arrived, assume that if it’s left your account, it’s arrived in ours. If you could make separate payments for each sibling it’d be appreciated, it makes reconciliation easier. If you are signing up more than one child, we will issue sibling vouchers again this year for you to spend at the club bar.
Please leave your address and personal details blank unless they have changed, it saves us a lot of effort NOT having to check them!
Many of you will be tempted to e mail back, asking me (or Matt) which nights coaching will be, and I can confirm we are intending to replicate the same structure as last year. This might change (dependent on the number of members and coaches) and anyone inconvenienced by an unexpected change of night will be entitled to a refund, so don’t hold back in that regard.
Whilst I have your attention, can I implore as many of you to join our“100” CLUB as possible?
Full details here - It’s only £1 a month, with quarterly prize draws. Why not join up your partner, your kids and encourage friends and family to join too? - 10th December 2021
