Kings School Rochester

A far better result on the 1st June for the XL Club than in recent years but we couldn't quite get them all out. Scorecard  Click here for photos

Dover College

The match on Weds 29th June was shrouded in sea mist until late afternoon. Quite often it was clearly visible drifting across the ground. More difficult to understand that a few miles either side of Dover it was clear and sunny all day. Scorecard  Click here for photos 

Harvey Grammar School

The XL side bowled and fielded well in this excellent win considering they only had 10 men due to some very late drop outs and injury - highlight of the match was 114 from Steve Brown. Scorecard  Click here for photos

Maidstone Grammar School

MGS managed to hold out at 157 for 9 when chasing 225 to win after a scintillating 100 from Neil Canham helped set the target. Scorecard  Click here for photo

Sibton Park CC

Chris Faulkner carried on from where he had left off last year (when he had scored 60-odd runs in his first XL match) and this time, in his second, he tormented the bowlers for 86 (including 12 fours) in 117 ball. Then later on, Jeff Narraway, in a powerful display of batting, bludgeoned the home bowling for 40 off 19 balls. Scorecard  Click here for photos

XL Club -v- The MCC

The annual match between the two clubs, this year played at the Nevill Ground, Tunbridge Wells, ended in a draw. All of those who played would like to thank the ground staff at Tunbridge Wells CC for their hard work to make the ground look a picture and the good people of Southborough CC for the excellent lunch and tea provided.
