Going out in style: Ross Courtney ended an indifferent year on the field with a fine half-century
He has been a star all season off the pitch; efforts which last week saw him receive a NatWest OSCA for his voluntary efforts. On the pitch, however, it hasn’t quite been Ross Courtney’s year. Thankfully, he saved his best to last and shone during the final game of the season against Harrow Wayfarers. After claiming two catches, one of them described as ‘brilliant’, he top scored in the Park innings, holding it together with a fine 58. Well played, Ross, it’s great to salute your efforts on the field.
Every week, the chairman will select the player who has produced the most exceptional cricketing performance of the weekend programme. It won’t necessarily be the highest scorer nor the bowler who has the best figures but someone who has produced that little bit of magic to win a game or turn a match around. We hope his or her team-mates join the celebration by paying for their drinks at the bar.
