Juniors Awards September 4: Weatherwatch Update

04/09/08

3pm and it's bucketing down in Aylesbury, with thunder and lightning for good measure.
However, the awards will go ahead this evening, even if we all have to cram into the pavilion to keep out of the rain. There will be no practice on the outfield or in the nets before or after the proceedings.
The presentations will start at 6:30pm, and should finish by 7:15pm. We're changing things a little this year. Come along and hear the team managers sum up their seasons and give out their own awards, as well as seeing the usual cups and plaques awarded for the top performances and efforts. We'll see you there!

First XI Take Top Spot

17/08/08

The firsts took over top spot in division 2 on Saturday as they look to bounce back into division 1 at the first attempt.
Rodney Browne's 7 for 15 was the highlight for Dinton in Bourton Vale's 126 all out. Mike Sutliff hit 45 in Dinton's 6-wicket win.
Three matches to go (Bledlow Ridge, Abingdon Vale, Leighton Buzzard), and a point ahead of Milton Keynes Park. Come on!

Rainwatch: Thursday's Practice ON

07/08/08

10:30am Thursday: Morning all, and welcome to another dodgy Thursday weatherwise. Please assume that practice will be ON until or unless informed otherwise here. It's unlikely we will be able to have someone at the ground today for 5pm to make the usual go/no-go decision, so we will have to trust the BBC weather forecast / our instincts by mid-afternoon.
No barbecue this evening because of the weather uncertainty, and please remember to bring all your outstanding sponsorship money.

The Sun Shines on Academy Week

05/08/08

Dinton's second Academy Week was a tremendous success, with over 60 juniors taking advantage of the unusually - and fortunately - dry weather to improve their cricketing skills under the watchful eyes of Dinton's coaches.
We'll provide a full review of the week shortly, but you can view some great images of the week here and order prints to preserve those happy memories.

Don't Forget Race Night

02/08/08

We'll see you there!

King Rules Over Royal!

25/07/08

A classy 135 not out from Rob King helped steer Dinton to victory on Sunday July 20 in the Bucks Cup away at Farnham Royal.
A Dinton team containing four juniors had to chase 246 off their 45 overs, but Rob had Richard Cripps (79 not out) for company in a partnership of 186 to win by seven wickets with six overs to spare.
Dinton now face Marlow at home in the next round on Sunday August 10.
