The Team In Action ~ 2005

 

The annual match between East Garston and Wantage 41 Club was held on Sunday 3rd July at Letcombe Regis. This match is played in memory of Roy Hunt and the Roy Hunt cup is treasured by whichever team wins. Roy was for many years a member of Wantage 41 Club and was of course the founder of the present East Garston Cricket Club. Roy's widow Jill always presents the trophy and this year Russell Highnett (Captain) was delighted to accept it for East Garston.

On Sunday 4th September a match was played at the Lambourn ground for the Stan Moore Trophy. This impressive trophy was given by Stan & Sara Moore for an annual match to be played against a team from The Plough, Eastbury. This match is always good fun with lots of good natured banter. Sara Moore presented the trophy to Russell Highnett Captain of victorious East Garston.
