Long time no blog...

THE first few months of the season have been very busy...

We've completed the first round of games now and it's back to Edgworth this Saturday but with the 2nd XI sitting pretty at the top of the league and the 1st XI floating around the top 5, there's still a lot to achieve! The 2nd XI must defend the top spot and the 1st XI must do the best to claw its way back up. Meanwhile the 3rd XI is holding third place in division four of the North Manchester league.

There have been a lot of dramatic matches including a last ball win for the 2nd XI v Little Hulton, while an intense match between the 1stXI and Flixton CC 1st XI, saw Darcy Lever lose by two runs on the last ball.

We've also been getting up to lots off the pitch. What with discos, karaoke, the World Cup and charity matches, it's certainly been a busy season!

Check out a few of our pictures...
