SCC Centenary
£100 for 100 Years- Book Your Place in Shenfield Cricket Club's History!
You may be aware that 2021 marks Shenfield Cricket Club's centenary year and we plan to host a number of exciting events over the year to celebrate this.
One fundraising idea the committee came up with was '£100 for 100 Years'- essentially an individual or family is asked to kindly donate £100 to SCC in honour of its' 100th year. During Cricket Week in August a plaque will be presented and subsequently put up in the clubhouse, with the names of those individuals/families who donated on it.
If you would like to donate then please email hannahjanekirby@yahoo.com to put your name down on the donor list, specifying what name you would like on the plaque.
Then pay £100 into the following account, using your name as payment reference:

Matt Salisbury
Durham County Cricket Club have announced that Shenfield’s Matthew Salisbury has signed a two year contract extension, keeping him at the club until 2022.
Matt joined Durham in May 2018 and featured in every Durham first class and one day game until May 2019 when injury brought his unbroken run to an end. Although available again by late August his appearances since then have been less frequent, but he featured in three of the County’s Bob Willis Trophy games in the Covid-shortened 2020 season.
After his first season he was awarded Durham’s Breakthrough Player of Year trophy, having taken 44 first class wickets including the prize scalps of former international stars Ian Bell and Jonathan Trott.
Matt has now taken 95 career first class wickets at an average of 31.07 and a strike rate of 51.72. His best first class bowling performance is 6-37 against Middlesex at Chester-le-Street. Formerly of Essex and Hampshire, he now seems settled at Durham so, sadly, an imminent appearance in Shenfield colours appears unlikely! Here is a great photo of Matt. - 29th September 2020
