2 washouts on Saturday put an end to a rusty performance from the 1st and 2nd XI. The NS XI played against a strong Bear Flat team and fell short chasing a decent early season total. The Sunday XI played against a BBC XI with Stuart Fowell making 28 and Matthew Kendrick 91*. F&P lost the game but it was a great start to the Sunday friendly season. A giant rainbow appeared over the club during the season. Photographs were taken by the opposition BBC players and kindly sent through to use.

Answers
Something unpleasant was found on the outfield on Saturday. Although we are a club based in the countryside it was clear that something foul is afoot. Not for the squeamish but please see the photograph of a Squirrel minus testicles on Facebook. If anyone can explain what has happened here answers would be appreciated.
